Artist: The Planets Album: Circle of Light EP Song: Knowledge of Self Typed by: julien.boast1@virgin.net [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]
