Ask the Answer Lyrics by Killah Priest

The Third Eye in Technicolor

2020

So, past, present, future
You exist, the body changes
Is it not clear?

I am something
I was here before nothing
I am substance, I am the buzzing light years in abundance
Crying tears like when you stare at a onion
Speckles of grey hairs, 'til it's fully white
Like one who glares at a hundred in age
The old man, young in his ways 'til the end of his days
Comes to his grave, flag, salute
Troops fire down at the parade
You either throw a grenade or hold lemonade
The veterans needed medicine
Instead the U.S. gave 'em heroin, that's embarrassin'
There's nothin' in comparison
Maybe the slave trade and Marilyn
Confederates was devilish, now we all in a deficit

The dark forces have tipped the scales
Scale to their side, which—which looks like they're winnin'
Winnin' at this point

Can't go home, 'cause it's not there anymore
Places, changes from war, a nation endangered and poor
Strangers come with their loans, with their claws
Banks is big business, oil tanks rob the soil of its riches
We went from royals to sickness
Our belief in God is suspicious
We un-loyal, too conflicted
Religion is a part of a tradition
That will keep our hearts in submission
Lead us into dark with no vision
It's the condition to our transition to a land distant
That no man witnessed and returned
To tell us if we fly or we burn
It's history that decides if we learn

Look at the reflections that come to you. Begin to understand that the communication is now coming in to speak with you

Power to the people
May goodness tower over evil
May wisdom be your sight for you to see through
The fog of these worldly gods, [?]
Of who, what, when, where and why
We spent too much time tryna see who lives in the sky
While on earth, we causin' our babies' own demise
We only in the zone when we high
"Christopher Columbus discovered America" is a lie
And our religions are a lie
So what truth do we go by?
Let's take it back to indigenous tribes

The beings that are in charge
Or—or the forces that created the Earth, the uh—
You can call it "the great creator", you can call it energy

I am life and space
I am the seeker from far away
I am ancient and modern-day
I am Harry Potter with age
I am fire, a blaze and a tidal wave
I live on a earth that thunders
While the skies above me slowly turns around one way
Causin' the clouds to have gravity
I saw bird eggs fall towards our galaxy
And pyramids drop towards the clouds like Chinese darts
I write rhymes on a roti with Guyanese art
It shows expressions like emojis when I write these parts
I hold the mic like a trophy, put the beat on a cart

To allow for great spirit to speak, we as a two-legged form simply allow that speak to be heard within this journey of our human step. Feel that sound, see the beauty, the colors, the textures, the sounds, the smells. The spirit is in grand communications
