about

This track opens with a snippet of an interview with my 'Grandfather'. Black 255 and I did a previous version produced by him, but it was lost... This was my production, but the minimalism of the beat was inspired by my Brother, Black 255.

lyrics

“Eye of Wizdom” Lyric Sheet

Eye of wisdom wide open on track/
No feed back just Stat’ik pullin’ books from the attic/
Blow dust from pages ageless knowledge of sages/
Know vodoun like Haitians cast spells like mages/
Alchemical science so fly girls get my essence/
Merge into a higher presence and go senseless/
Some suggestions... #1 you is that: universal masses/
Solid liquid and gasses/
#2 I am so take it personal/
Identify with consciousness that’s Universal/
In the beginning there was a page n’ pen/
And then the word of god which my thoughts would send/
Through the microphone the words I sound transduce/
Like a breath to third eyesight or the breaks on ya Coup DeVille/
Back in the day refining my rhyme skill/
Riding bus 59 to the end of the line/
Over to Bolton strolling to 2009/
Fatty Labz Inc years ahead of my time/
I dwelt in spirit filled rooms/
Kept a chalice my mind balanced/
No malice just a will to complete a work that’s greater than all others/
Defame no others/
So brothers don’t get vex when I say/
Ya ignorance be the flip side of my/

“Ageless wisdom of the sages ignorance is…"
The flip side of these
“Most important scientific findings of our recent decades.”

Yo hold your breath/
And focus all attention to the place of the third eye/
When I practice what I preach on the mic I’m no lie
Word born of skin producing less melanin/
Than other shades of hue-man yet I overstand/
That it functions best through out my CNS/
Yes my eyes and ears and I still drink beers/
And I still do drugs circuit 4 through 8 trigger/
My aura grows strong taking hits from the bong/
Drop a dot of the mesc’/
Plant a bean of the X/
Crown chakra O.G. Oh Zee ‘pon LSD/
Paradigm free/
I ain’t rockin’ one view/
Of the world that I accept as absolute true/
I mix theory and myth up in a satellite dish/
The origins of man yo how (did) we get like this?
