Ma'at (Each Man)

To each his own
Each man stands alone
We each must bring
A sacrifice or an offering
And what we pay, will be weighed
When we meet our judgment day
So, keep it light as a feather
And fly away

These days, it seems that everyone is on some twisted mission
To make a great impression
To boost their likes and ratings
Faking friendship just to get ahead
As jaded as the walking dead
Becoming the norm as corruption spread

But truth is always waiting
Much of what we've been taught to love or fear (love or fear)
Are just moments on the journey here
We must choose what we keep
For let go, believe what you're told or seek and go know

To each his own (each his own)
Each man stands alone (stands alone)
We each must bring
A sacrifice or an offering
And what we pay, will be weighed
When we meet our judgment day
So, keep it light as a feather
And fly away

'Nuff ah dem claim dem righteous through dem seh Ital
No meat, uh, very little salt or sweet
Through dem fit and full of intelligence
With great confidence to just speak
But we see seh dem secretly full of fear

And so hopelessly unaware
Of how a loving heart and peaceful thoughts
Keep the conscience clear
So we say, "Caution to the scornful
Your pride is gonna be your downfall
Be humble when you're corrected, receive it willingly and be grateful"
Because love is what a one is expected to use
To effectively govern and decision
So, with all the long term planning and precision, you ready if di mission?

To each his own (each his own)
Each man stands alone (stands alone)
We each must bring
A sacrifice or an offering
And what we pay will be weighed
When we meet our judgment day
So, keep it light as a feather
And fly away

(Fly away) from the social drama
(Fly away) from the theatres of war
(Fly away) from the minstrel show karma
(Fly away) into full bloom and power

(Fly away) I am a pillar of strength
Firm at the core (fly away)
I 'n' I sisters and brothers will endure
What we represent together is concentrated, pure
Unselfish, raw, creation, law, Order Divine, zero to nine
