Hymn 12:37
I’m formed from the essence of gods and demons alike. But I chose to be neither. So here I'm bound. I saw the dawn of man, I witnessed (the) birth of soil. But I neither chose to be wise, nor an ignorant fool. I viewed tyrants with crowns, fell and rose before me. But I chose not to be a master, nor a slave I be. So, I chose the gifts of earth, secrets of the herbs. So I chose solitude, and lengthy tunes. My bride, she is (the) most precious harvest I've reaped. She was (the) jolliest crop the earth has given. No, I don’t want your gold. I don’t need nothing, truth be told. In this mountain we live in peace. Get the hell out (of) my fields! No, I won't let her go. Don't you dare touch my babe blue, no. Take the weed you can carry and, Get the fuck out (of) my fields! He stepped to my virgin soils, and he boils with vanity. Oh, he killed my buzz on the fly, scourge of humanity. He (was) born in wealth and might, he witnessed (his) people starve. But he chose greed and vice, he chose the lies. My foe, he is (the) most bragging bastard I’ve seen. He was (the) filthiest soul the gods have given. No, I don’t want your gold. I don’t need nothing, truth be told. In this mountain we live in peace. Get the hell out (of) my fields! No, I won't let her go. Don't you dare touch my babe blue, no. Take the weed you can carry and, Get the fuck out (of) my fields! I strike, as he touched her, and Babylon prevailed. A swing, through my neck, and Babylon prevailed. She watched, with no tears, and Babylon prevailed. I lay, with no feels, so Babylon prevails. Man is cursed, with lust, as Babylon prevailed. Woman is cursed, with distrust, as Babylon prevailed. Deception, Oppression, as Babylon prevailed. Thus, for thousands of years, will Babylon prevail.

Fear just flew away, Now, claim total control. Peace now you should made, With demons lurking around. Use the altered state, Mean visions harm you no more. Go pass from the upmost gate, Go seek the flame that's hidden. Oh can you feel the feel? You got to break away, Aim for the chaos, go! Do not afraid the eyes. Follow the trails of the accused. Route is no big deal, As you keep on, you'll know the way. "Truth, truth, truth!" all you can hear. Go hunt the lies, infested all that seemed as real You got to break away, Aim for the chaos, go! Do not afraid the eyes. Follow the trails of the accused. Now, go declare your will. Work for the chaos, go! Do not afraid the lies. Follow the trails of the accused. They'll be waiting for you. At the end of the road you'll find the eyeless snake, don't blink. In their gardens of blaze. The Lily and Lucy will set you free from (this) haunting misery.

On a cove we meet, With sins and scars. Took the purple pill, to see it all. There's a wobbly dune, Sands rising higher The scene is tuned by (the) kin of fire. From core they came, By cerebral gate, They'll beat us up for good today. It's too late! Around a great campfire, (Ah, ah, ah) We roll forever. As our psyches climb higher, (Ah, ah, ah) We burn together. We drank the seer's blood, We smoked the wizard's beard, We snorted seven demons' soul. They ripped the space and time, They swirled us all around, They switched our selves from role to role. Now we're whole! Around a great campfire, (Ah, ah, ah) We roll forever. As our psyches climb higher, (Ah, ah, ah) We burn together. We were blind, now we see, (Ah, ah, ah) Beveiled horizons. Became an art, psychology. (Ah, ah, ah) We lose our minds.

I'm in my vacant, aimless space. Being sober is a sin to me. My pact with life is null and void. Leave me with my sweet lunacy. I seek no further alternative. My glasswares are my only friends. Dealers are only guys I care. I lay here, stoned, in my lair. I light the fire, unleash good vibes. I can't conspire, here's safe from eyes. Dense fume is passing through, I saw scales of a dazzling hue. Captive to an earthly treat, Thus, free from worldly shit. I'm my own law, I'm my own church, Reverend Weed backs me on our search. He said “Raymond it's an endless road” I said “I'm aware, and I'm all yours” I light the fire, unleash good vibes. I can't conspire, here's safe from eyes. Dense fume is passing through, I saw scales of a dazzling hue. Captive to an earthly treat, Thus, free from worldly shit.

I begged the demon, To lay beside me, To bring me the key, For true integrity Is this a nightmare? Or just a sweet dream? Oh mighty Satan, Just please embrace me. Oh. I bent the everlasting flow, She marks the path I voluntarily follow. Reality’s in me, I know. World is a toy she gave / for me to enjoy. Nah, I've wronged too much. For the words I believe, for the colors I miss, I regret to my bones. Oh, cuddle me more my goat. My ego slowly dies, I'm free from all my lies. I hushed the voices, (That) speak inside me, (To) hear more clearly, My true identity. I bent the everlasting flow, She marks the path I voluntarily follow. Reality (is) in me, I know. World is a toy she gave / for me to enjoy.

Rowing away, from shallowly ground. Inspire yourself in devilish sound. It's never late, it's never a loss. You feel like a victim, in fact you're the boss. You'll reach further away, Each time you hit the road, You won't come back one day, That is the day you... Seize the night, surpass the day, Reclaim your mind, dispel the haze. This haunting voyage, will stick in your head. Listen it well, it has much to say. You'll reach further away, Each time you hit the road, You won't come back one day, That is the day you... Find the true fool, Is it them, or is it you? Find the true fool, Is it them, or is it you?

You, dotards with your rotting rules. Demonized the brain tools, Never seeked for their use. We're bored with your rusty rituals. Your worm infested idols, Mean no shit to us, you fools. Condemn us with your masses. Your army of oppressors, Can't occupy our minds. Legalize your deviant seeds. You're the ruiner of the dreams, You narcissistic fiends. Aliens today, Sons of tomorrow. Will find a way, To Survive your hollow world. We dwell in mountains high, We're married with the sky, We're the smoke and fire, Now try and beat us, yeah! We're born of urban dust, We embrace our lust, We'll make you retch in disgust, Now, try and arrest us, oh! Oh, hey, we're lost and we are fine with it, yeah! So, don't expect us to adhere, We're not gonna revere, Your narrow sphere. Go away, stay away, live away, You've always had the say, You force us into fray.
