lyrics

LOOK INTO MY EYE

A poetical note does not compute with futile attempts of consciousness,
it serves no such purposes.
It is so much broader in its scope,
Way beyond everything you have come to call "dope"
For unlike a thought it does not prohibit, limit or morally bound,
Anyone or anything against or for something -- it is sound

A man as a thought is oh so easily confused;

He thinks the sea is blue because the sky is blue too - when in truth is just how the light moves through

Naive in his thoughts he throws them all against the reality of real beings,
as ice cubes against the sun.
The son of man will never shine unless darkness surrounds him.

A poetical note is as such to translate what a mind cannot grasp,
for how you see through thoughts does not recognize the life in the blade of grass.

The poetical note speaks to more than mind.
This that is the poet’s charm;
is speaking not to the mind, but through the mind.
With a profound communion, like the breath of life and death interacting –
He speaks and he sees not within interpretation, but self-realization.


Look into my eye
And see the sound of silence
Look up to the sky
Beyond the light there's darkness

Look into your eye
Is there a trace of fear?
Find out the Lie
So that you may live Here

It's what I've done
It's what I do
Let's Stand as One
And Equals too

The words of the poet pour from him with a meaning and purpose that is missed by most

Those that hear and practice the inner sight will embark on a journey that transcend the questions
Who am I ?
Why am I here?
Is there a God?
What is the meaning of Life?

For everything has already been revealed...
And as we walk through the valley of the shadow of the dead
Be still and know that Life is All
Bring down all walls
This is the poet's call
