THE PLANETS - Knowledge Of Self lyrics

rate me

[Nomadic Poet]

Yo, in this labyrinth of life

in spite of holding the rope, I might choke

If it switched like promoting a new ackk, chokes me

Producers want to hoax me and coax me

But I ain't trying to make my soul freeze

into solid stone, that's how I'ma go

I'm unfolding nature man of scripts and scrolls, paid spiritual tolls

Not payrolls to see what life holds for me

Formerly manufactured from the earth before birth

Brought me with the breath of life breathed into us

Trus' me, articles of God's trust

Now as the globe rotates we live corrupt

To rot away from the door's jaws of the dark raven

Escapin mistaken contemplation by this dark haven

[SonRize]

Movin' over dangerous ground I found it hazardous

Cantankerous lifestyles deprive one of happiness

So yo bro I'm mackin' this

Infinite miraculous energy while my enemy's remain shady characters

[Chorus/Scratches by DJ Kam x4]

And if you don't know who you are, follow me, seen

The Knowledge Of Self

Now it's for the people

[SonRize]

I looked into the river like a mirror, saw the moon shimmer

Felt the spark in my heart depart into a gentle flicker

It grew bigger

I'm trying to be a true brother

Still I got to dig a little deeper to be delivered

I try myself like a cook and throw the book at me

Address the crannies and nooks and take a second look at me

With honesty I'm building me

into a being of true love and great integrity

You feeling me?

Secondly, Nomadic Poetry be flowing with me

Like telepathy as energy's planetary

[Nomadic]

Through the galaxies I'm making moves just ???

We have to be on some personal meaningful soul cleansing

Amending, now bredren, tell me what you're defendin'

If you're not true to self then you're not comprehending

The facts, counteract the attacks, slap back your ego to the max

Before the time when your soul gets taxed.

[Chorus]

[Nomadic]

Archdeacon, supposedly beacons, speakin' and preachin'

Impeachin' the laws of the book, simply crooks causing treason

Godly for one reason, the next? Without a reason

They in Hampstead Heath beneath a tree at night

And they're leasing their body, it's dotty, yo, the systems kind of grotty

What people see on TV they wanna be and just copy

There's innercity youts selling drugs and puffing beanies

Situations seedy, greedy individuals on the daily drinking

Baileys and cream, living for greed, crazy fiends chasing dreams

Tell me, what's it all mean?

[SonRize]

Some people wanta run up their garms and talk fraff

When their egos clash, that's why I'm ready like cash

To face my circumstances, doing dances with wolves

Pulling the wool from both my eyes, make sure my lungs are full

I hit the bull in his eye if he ain't ready to see

That in the land of the blind, the devil holds the key

Basically it's about slavery and captivity

Moving with energy that's built on negativity,

the possibilities are rare

When we don't care, about the consequence of living life on the edge

That's why I take my pledge no doubt and move the devil out

Cos if evil remains it stains brains no doubt,

and I ain't even trying to fall out

Before the call out when before that I knew my soul was gonna get drawn out

[Chorus till end]
