The Good Life (Oakland)

I am the reincarnation of a wrongfully killed kin
My ancestors on my blood, on my tongue, under my skin
I recall, latent and ancient memories
Hidden in the trees and revealed in our dreams
I'm the type who low key believes in destiny
I think there is another me, possibly infinity
But infinity has a lot in common with one
One God on one earth with one moon and one sun
Sermon's done. Sorry there was no divine epiphany
Stopped at a strip club and got a dance from Tiffany
At first it seemed like she was really into me
But she just wanted my wallet, yanking it with urgency
We learn, we see and gradually grow jaded
Woefully longing for escape, to be elated
But let us not forget that the present is a gift
Come repeat the mantra, the music will uplift

Celebrate the life you life, the ones you have and that which you have to give
Captivate your consciousness, welcome in those feelings of bliss
Celebrate the life you life, the ones you love you should learn to forgive
Meditate on simplicity
Appreciate authenticity

Goodie two shoes in a pink tutu, who the fuck are you
What exactly are you trying to do?
I'm a kind of blue train molded by red clay
Drifting through my idle moments in a silent way
Struck by sensational sounds so sublime
Searching for a truth that will transcend time
Only in solitude can a man ever capture
The deeper essence of his being and anticipate the rapture
Reject this rigid reason, take a break from Socrates
Vindicate these very virtues of Maimonides
You can feel it in the leaves in the breeze in the trees
You're bound to be please cuz its the bees' knees
Bombs to the eyebrows, missells eyelashes
You made rabbi crazy cutting all the classes
But let us not forget that the present is a gift
So come repeat the mantra, the music will uplift

Celebrate the life you life, the ones you have and that which you have to give
Captivate your consciousness, welcome in those feelings of bliss
Celebrate the life you life, the ones you love you should learn to forgive
Meditate on simplicity. Appreciate authenticity

I do finally feel it, I am ready to run
Better believe it, digging deep never done
This endless journey that continues till we die
Passions burning and our aspirations soaring high
Hearts are in it and we know we will transcend
Destined to win it and regive it so we make amends
This is a fixture around to stay. Fly away, fly away. Fly away, fly awa-yyyyyy...
