Stardust in my eyes
Don't know where it came from but it's got
Fractals in my sight and I need a sign
That we are whole and not just
Gestalt images
And not pieces held together by
Electric synapses
Telling me what's real
Cosmic waves come take me to another star
Cosmic waves come shape me I'm here now
No time like the present 'cause the future is past
I'm here now tryin' to take me soul fast
The black hole in me
The space in the universe where I can be free
So cosmic waves come take me to another star
Cosmic waves come shape me 'cause I know who I are
A star

SHARA:
Yo it's hard to love an artist
Narcissistic beauty divided and parted into
Swells and Swings of catharsis
Or maps of oceans uncharted
Farthest and largest worlds apart
It doesn't make sense tryin' to put up a fence around this nonsense
When all we really want is these 2 cents to be a dollar
But we can sit on stacks and never prosper
No never prosper
'Cause like atoms we create and expel
Or like magnets attract and repel
Synonymous heaven and hell
No common ground to dwell
No common wave to swell
Venus retrograde got me ready to bail
Thinking Undina might collide and unveil to my eyes
To see the lunar cycles
Let her run my miles
So I can't reconcile this coma
Drank the juice of the soma
Tasted the god's ambrosia
I let my id take over but it's time to close
Yea it's time to close her and open the knowledge of self
Said I'm open to the knowledge of self
So I'm living it how I see it who am I seeking?
Myself is the only one I can and can't be with but believe in
If I go on this loop then I'm stuck dreaming
Waking Life man I must be deep in
If love ain't the reason I gotta to keep bein'
Negative spirals, I got to keep breathin'
I got to keep seeing
Not question myself
But ask myself questions
Stop counting my sheep and start counting my blessings
'Cause even though I want you I can't keep guessing
I gotta find my peace of mind or I'll be stuck messing
Up or around but I'd rather be besting at the studio
My legacy sews itself in ratios of gold
The symmetry of line meets truth and growth
And only here will I find my own
'Cause if I keep hurting me, love is unknown
And 4eva n a day I'll be alone
So when my time comes
The beauty will be shown
The space in this sentence will combed
Scanned for knowledge of self
Said I'm open to the knowledge of self
Said she open to the knowledge of self
Said he open to knowledge of self
BOLA:
Knowledge of self keep it tight like every song is a kite
I keep it on a string in a cave chippin' words like stalagmites
Tryin' to taste all the world like the tongue
But at times you know the teeth they bite
So here is I
Black is life
Any matter even though I know I'm giving off those artist vibes
And I know it's hard to tell this truth now mostly lies
Keep your 3 eyes on who is I and please
Don't worry 'bout the odds dog
Their fire arms are too short to box with god
Yea I know this renaissance and it's taking way too long
Hold strong, I got the poems in my bones like a winter storm
Yes I swear we got some soul, underground so deep so low
Spittin' introspective disconnected from the status quo

Sumatra ft. Masune

I jumped in the river, what did I see
A black star staring right back at me
In the center of it all was the universe's kiss
Blind to its depth and lost in its bliss
And it revolved, yeah
Orbital Mechanix, it evolved yeah
Attracting other planets,
Atoms and patterns that scattered in matter
Then formed to storms moved spores to shores and sewed seeds
Tudo foi feito pelo sol
Tudo foi feito
Tudo que você ganhou
Aceitou-se aceita
Aceitou-se aceita
I accepted its current, then the river reversed it
Reached out to its surface but never did stir it.
Liquid like life and love nothing will deter it
Hold it up to the sky and let the sun observe it
Purge it
Evaporate to clouds
Change my purpose
Watch my rain come down the circle is so perfect
I can feel it I can be it I can feel it I can be it
I jumped in the river, what did I see
My existence staring right back at me
It was not my past nor what I will be
But myself as I am just as I see
And I revolved, yeah
Lucid reality
I evolved, yeah
Transcending normality
Prisms of schisms transitioned from visions
Both inner and our
The will of my power of self
Tudo foi feito pelo sol
Tudo foi feito
Tudo que você ganhou
Aceitou-se aceita
Aceitou-se aceita

SHARA:
Look at him shorty slims with the trim grin
Living in dens of grim
Hits to fit lips
Knitted 'round fibs
Jut to get a quick fix like it's so legit
But damn
He don't know what lies within
He don't really know how to care for shit
Five-O says that it ain't in his skin
But it seems white chalk likes melanin
'Cause it ain't just burning in Ferguson
You ain't seen it yet but death slipped in
It ain't just red in the city of wind
Hell is hot where ever you live
Mama's got arms the towel's in
Brotha got arms up but still gets hit
What's the point if you keep gettin' lit
What's the point if you keep giving in
It's the Young Elders and the old souls
Leaving the streets and making self gold
Is it evolution or history told?
Spit in 16s to make new molds
It's not enough to go harder than hard
People are numb but they'll see your scars
So when it's rough repeat this part
FEAR IS IN YOUR MIND NOT IN YOUR HEART
My mind, my breath, my words my art
FEAR IS IN YOUR MIND NOT IN YOU HEART
My mind, my breath, my words, my art
Fear is in your mind
MASUNE:
Yo I stay fly GNV
Got 200 for the end of the week
Blow it on smoke, blow it on drink
Blow it on blow, then I blow it on E
Bottoms up just 'cause I wanna feel good
Make me feel good like the gal dem should
I bow them down stepping out on the wood
Make me feel good like the world never could
Like the world never should
Just a southern boy I'm the piss of the earth
Work and I work but what's it all worth?
I work and I work but what's it all worth?
Salt and mineral gentleman Crook
Salt and mineral ice on the road
Purple in the bag like I'm porfirio
Pour one out for those that don't know
Yea I pour one out for the silver and gold
Silver and gold
I got hot metal and something to fold
4 inch shiv with the diamond crest
I got hot metal right next to my chest
Yea I got hot metal boy try and test
Out on my one they ain't even gonna flex
Them fuck boys tried one time but they missed
Born in the chaos lost in the vex
I was lost in the shit
Just a southern boy I'm the piss of the earth
Work and I work but what's it all worth?
I work and I work but what's it all worth?
Salt and mineral gentleman Crook
Yea
Work and I work but what's it all worth?
Salt and mineral gentleman

It was Monday night
Groovin' with the best of the late night tribe
Gettin' no rest there's a music light
Turnin' on my mind
Sweats on
All of us are vibing to the rhythm
Travelin' to zones that
Transcend us
Turnin' on my mind
On muted strings glides highs of sweeter things
Synthesizing different beings into sound
Blink on my light, blink on my light, blink on
Turnin' on my mind
Far out set your mind to free
Tell me how you elevate
Tell me all you wanna be
It's yours
The world is yours to see
Spin it with your artistry
Turnin' on my mind
On muted strings glides highs of sweeter things
Synthesizing different beings into sound
Blink on my light, blink on my light, blink on
Turnin' on my mind

Reclaim my closeness with the sun
Quietly resounding (oh quiet sound)
Oh the amber kiss
Tastes of honey glow

Following your emissions
To get a better glimpse of
Time that's passed
Since you compressed
Since you first compressed
The memories into
Reels of filmed
Light transitions
Since you compressed
Since you first compressed
Since you first compressed
Since you first compressed, since you first
Superclusters expanding and
Collapsing out your deeper breaths
Holding in your fevered beats
Of equalizing horizons
Since you first compressed, since you first
All of the lights in your smile
Since you first compressed, since you first
