Shall we flip through the scriptures of Egyptian Scrolls
Channel an Ancient Soul
Time my only confine ~ I'm patient Tho
Magic manifests when I embrace the flow
Breath ~ That's what he told me
When i asked the Zen master if he could show me
The path to the cosmos ~ Sometimes the mind goes
So high that time slows ~ 3rd eye behind closed
Lid ~ Remember as a kid
I wished that could grow up to be just like this
Pushin up lighters ~ When Bob Marley hits the sound waves
I'm stirred by a voice FROM the grave
God ~ Please grant me longevity
May my thought word and actions lead these youths to remember Free
Not the man but the Essence ~ I'm livin for the Present
My future shall I arrive how I project it
Mystic Man
Shin-Q
I walk the streets bare feet with a turban urban
High confidence with nose up suburban
Disturbing the peace with my own particular version
Of the truth document proof I know you that heard em
Quoting scripture reflective visions in picture
Shaking up the structure with Richter get with the
Movement Believe half of what you see probably none of what you hear
Smokescreen and propaganda keeps the vision unclear
Shed tear for ghetto youth Smoke tree and sip root
Rent garment and worn boot Jah armor the lone suit
Study scrolls for scoop respect for God's creatures
One with Nature Only know love could never hate ya
Try to make the best of every situation that face ya
One of distinction truly blessed with high favor
Seeking the Savior Praying the heavens guides my plans
Water to sand grass to gravel it's in my hands I'm a……
Mystic Man
I strive to be Benevolent ~ No love for settlement
Embrace the Elements ~ Nature's my Medicince
Mom's raised a gentleman ~ From jump it's evident
Soul of a Veteran who's better than they cheddar and
Never irrelevant like the last pick of the draft
Discipleship of improving men taken task
The roots and culture slipping like sands of hour glass
The youths dem rather put on a cloak and wear a mask
It's all illusion ~ Hindus call it Maya
Bablyon program dem days and desires
Meditation remove the mundane from higher
The I-n-I will never die ~ The propane to fiya
The Devil him a liar 'neath the heel of me boots
Stomp a rain dance til the earth sprout truth
Feed pon the bread of life sipping ital soup
I shall recoup from the labors that produced ya'll fruit
