Kick Arrow 04:52
Kick Arrow Lyrics by Mason Lucas Tribal drumbeats pounding Trumpets and violins sounding Eruptions of volcanic fountains Flying over snowcapped mountains Rain dominates my forest Thundering down in torrents Boons to the water courses And heralds of great importance Massifs maintain silence Escarpments met out violence Esplanades best trod milage Clouds create Sky Islands Rivers run and spray off the cateracts Display the grace of acrobats We want to return to our habitats And learn to discern the turns of the avalanche I look to the Earth to find inspiration Meditations of high vibration Positivity a sublime innovation Unity is my destination Respect to all living creatures All of them are humanity's teachers Elk Buffalo Fox and Beaver They are our relatives and true believers So peace to the people who are living in yurts Relief to the people who have no shirts Release the hold on gold deep in the dirt Belief in love will heal the Earth Feel the energy of the land you're on What you're standing on and what you're landing on It's the Metatron jamming through the Gamelon I give my blessings to the plants of the Amazon This is our island in the sky You can live your life and still wonder why Maintain a smile and keep it nice Respect the land and comfort the children when they cry I run through the jungle just to kick up dust I'm on a gleeful spree and I'm just ripping it up I reside with the tribes who are vibeing it up And survive every time when they're sipping their cups I'm going to fly through the canopy of sanity's lanes Because we're jamming like Marley is a part of my game We started the same but part of me is harder to train And incarnated related to statements tapered with flame I maintain though change is a universal concept respect the traditions And I do it with a sonnet I'm on it Doctors say conditions are chronic Because I always keep my lyrics so fluent and honest Bust syntax pin back the pages in the wind Mariah's desired and I'm inspired to begin Yet again the Dervish is beginning to spin I'm on a tortex vortex will all four fins It's revolving evolving and solving the problems Rectify the situation though we didn't start it Cultivating patience in Dubuque and Harlem In the parliament with Solomon Bailey and Barnum While the stars in the sky keep rotating in fact Just to punctuate the centuries like sentries intact They're sending me back to times of diviners in black And in the white with the balance of thier talents and their tact With the luminous voluminous humanist homophones I'm consuming this like my dog's exhuming the bones Assuming the phone doesn't ring and ruin my tone I will return to the essence of my effervescent poems Bless the microphones bless the crowds Bless the planet bless it loud A testament to positivity that makes us proud And get down to the revolution sound we found. This is our island in the sky You can live your life and still wonder why Maintain a smile and keep it nice Respect the land and comfort the children when they cry

Spuki 05:03
Spuki Lyrics by Mason Lucas Yo I We flow for the show No time to hold the phone Of the chrome flipping domes With nothing but the chromosomes Well known won our merits in the terrordrome When we recite it we'll be rhyming on a ribosome The seed was sown but it was only a loan You've got to share it with your parents so they can grow their own They're flipping bundles to the hundreds in the thunderdome I cruise to Colorado show my love to the summit home With the reggae rhythm and we with them with the mellow tone Pianos for sopranos with the altos and the baritones Still it is revealed that it appeals to the skeleton Accumulate and ruminate our super numerated bones Windshield wipers in the rain maintain the metronome My mind is my kingdom and my apartment is my second home The television news never soothes it's a parrot show They terrorize and advertise a pack of lies they brew for you I've got the positive phenomenon I let it rock And the vibrational sensation of the one drop My tactics are dramatic so I'm known to hit the tip top Transcend the land's end and run through the sun spots Islands in the sky have their eyes on the cosmonauts Cause a lot of love on the path of the astronauts Reenter the atmosphere your appearance is a pleasant shock We're mastering our karma so the dharma is a rock hop Singing with our eyes closed to Taos and Monadnock Beauty and respect are the best of the cash crop You can relax and know that never will the track stop Lyrical mastery for phylacteries that grass-hop My whole crew used to live down by the back lot Rent was mad cheap but I thought I was going to get my back shot Reflections on directions of the past made me laugh a lot But now I'm living fully in the love as my backdrop If you need to believe in something maybe this will give you hope enough The choice is yours I'll give you some more of the invisible tickets of the continual love This is the rhythm that incinerates paper Giving credit due to writers and arrangers Inventive like Samuel Clements' mysterious stranger An angel turning pages born forlorn in a manger I've got the Mark Twain refrain and a laser My anima's got stamina you can't contain her It was explained to me by druids and rangers Who told me that if I didn't get it now I'd get it later Flossing with the boss as we cross the equator You can direct all correspondence to a personal savior If you're walking with the talkative on edges of razors Castaneda made the cut ripping up the cross fader Bass driven music for the movers and the shakers I'm on maneuvers just to be a mediator Whether you're a sailor of the stars of meditator Felling love and gratitude is my human nature If you need to believe in something maybe this will give you hope enough The choice is yours I'll give you some more of the invisible tickets of the continual love I'm not a gangster rapper or an emo-scenester after Demons on the scene are spitting whack and then they're choking up Another season writing poems up on the mountain top I had to take a breather and a sip from my tea cup Country to the suburbs to the city's not the last stop Looking back and laughing at the path I must be growing up Bar-girls are throwing up finally hung their phones up Lyrics keep on burning and I'm looking at the notebook That's when I hit you with one more dope hook So you can rise above the cries that you're so shook And peel away the layers of illusion and go look At the journey through this world that you're soul took Yo I

Oceans Find 05:24
Oceans Find Lyrics and Music by Mason Lucas Looking out across a caravan of faces like a stone tableaux Every character's a synonym of where I've been or where I'll go Cycle through existence it's addictive isn't it a blissful show Little glimpses of delicious situations ancient futures glow And no religion's given wisdom is predicting individual goals It's a big decision living moments like I know I know Visions lift us up to higher heights from orbits of elliptical Dreams and find us and remind us that our kindness is so integral Where oceans find a place to hide Did you think of all the people moving towards all the pivotal Moments only last a fraction they're invisible And we're only getting closer by the minute to a mystical Union and confederation with the indivisible Where little trails run through the wilderness akin to this old narrative flow And the climate's unpredictable protagonists are variables Dancing on the limbs with infinite volitions skipping miracles And the system has existed since it's institution ages ago Where oceans find a place to hide

Rollin On 04:57
Rollin On Lyrics and music by Mason Lucas Whirlwinds in the world spin through newspaper headlines The calendar's parameters defining the deadlines But still we move ahead and we maintain in the meantime And I call on the selector 'cause I need her to rewind The DJ's plates keep on rotating like a turbine I'm non violent but I impact like a punch line To the proponents of peace the release is going to be fine Love on the incline and war on the decline We redesign the shape of civilization in dreamtime The energy of the planets and the sun's mine I only rely on the positive and I combine Vibratory magic poems and luminous love rhymes It is interpreted through third eyes and sun signs Saw that Foghat when I was on a slow ride I bring the dub and it makes the whole club climb I know you gotta say my rhyme styles' sublime If they'd let me know The name of this puzzle I think it's famous out in Tokyo So maybe that's where I should go Metaphorically spitting out words that glisten Everybody now just stop and listen Can you relate and state your position Spinning with a world where the mystery's hidden Illuminated conduits, benevolent treaties Magnificent genies, devas and dakinis Myriad lives: will we repeat these Gathering intelligence to relevant theses Expand upon community networks Grassroots poke through cracks in the red dirt Sunlight shines on the back of my wet shirt Reaping the rewards like lords of the manners Alighting and I'm lighting the way like a lantern Messages penned in the cipher that I answer Hammering the drum like a audible glammer Combining the mantra with impeccable grammer Coming over to your side of the room Anybody guess I'm arriving soon Greet a guest with a knife or spoon Check your breath it is high noon Keep on rhyming for a timeless boon Anyone could rest in silence soon Take a trip to the dark side of the moon And I flip what I rip with a page and plume If they'd let me know The name of this puzzle I think it's famous out in Tokyo So maybe that's where I should go And so I hit the road in the autum it's beautiful Different from anything I've ever seen in my entire life it's all good As it should but you never thought I would Run the bauntlet but I'm on it and satonished the hood And the subuerbs while we slumbber they cut lumber fom wood And the odometer's numberes start to plummet with every foot I'm woving backwards in time and ripples are felt on the Farthest peninsulas reetition of the cylce raise the temperature I'm a sould adventurere still the jouney's been a blur Some people theya re never surea nd live their lives in sepluchers Looking at fields and the forest and torrents Of thunderstorm warnings in the morning while we're orbiting Florence Churches and factories practically forming a spine across the Country kinda funny that it would strike me so naturally Occasionally missing my exit because of the scenery Deep in the wilderness or maybe it was the greenery Smoke stack blown back road maps so fat All of my friends in New London cut the phone tap Our frequency's free and clear of debris and I'll always be On the itinerary rolling out of NYC And Pokipse Mississippi keep on spitting the litany Bring the practice to Anapolis and the twin cities On the last train to Clarksville we start to embark From Asbury Park to Glastonbury and Bismark From Verona to Sedona, Arizona and Pomona I'm out but it was sure nice to have known ya.

Eyes Up 04:02
Eyes Up Lyrics and Music by Mason Lucas Love can stop the war On the distant shore That's what I came here for It's what we must explore You know I've got more love than a permanent crunk And the the jungle I can tumble like a circle of monks You know I've got a lot of megawatts and I'm making them bump I point my speakers at the leaders and I'm making them jump Because they fight a false war for some blood to pump They say they might reward the boored and the dumb They've got their feet up on the wheels of our dreams and We started needing them But we can put it back on track it's up to us to Take charge Be large Children of the stars gravitate and innovate the arts Wise up Rise up Eyes up Integrity's blending me sending infinite love Love can stop the war Abroad and inside your heart And trust is what we need Electrify your soul with unity You can look around any town there's something to see Is it debatable they made a few that are covered with trees And some are covered with dust and cry concrete tears Cause deceivers drop their bombs until the people disappear And I can hear them speaking on TV until it's meaningless I'm dreaming of life in 3d And these people call a state of emergency You can't make me safe and I would rather be free so Take charge Be large Children of the stars gravitate and innovate the arts Wise up Rise up Eyes up Integrity's mending me sending infinite love Take charge Be large Children of the stars celebrate and elevate the heart Wise up Rise up Eyes up To the mindstate the vibrates with infinite love I woke up at 5 am monday I killed the TV there was too much gunplay They were bombing countries just to build a runway And start a war of bloodletting somesay I'm too candid branded contraband kid I rhyme slow this time you'll understand it I speak truth cause the youth demand it and Spread limitless love to a troubled planet This is a conscious peoples' movement I'll prove it do it so smooth and move like a fluid In a wilderness existence with druids fluent Double wide classified as a truant While all the false governments and the fake rappers Are taking their turns to act as slave masters Their laughter will end upon capture And I won't wait for the rap sure

Antidote 04:46
Antidote Lyrics and Music by Mason Lucas I'll only listen to the truths for quotes They are the antidote I'm going to sing on the strains of hope sometimes it rocks the boat I live my life full on so it's humbling Sometimes I only come come with some stumbling I refine these lifetimes of bumbling Whether or not Babylon will come tumbling Purify the belly of grumbling Clarify the tongue from mumbling Realign the spine from crumbling Redesign the mind to find something LIving alone for some time Makes me appreciate your company Meditation on the times Makes the minutes seem so young to me Living in a concrete cage Makes me spread my wings in the country May all the blessed lessons of life Expand expound and come to me I sing the song all night long for all nations To bring the blessings of love and elation To every spiritual path and persuasion Spin the lyrical math and equation I sing the song to rise the vibration And so the hypocrites run from the station Throw down their guns with some consternation So lead them not up to spots of temptation I'll only listen to the truths for quotes They are the antidote I'm going to sing on the strains of hope sometimes it rocks the boat This is the time for focus of purpose As we define what lies below the surface Becoming mindful of precise service It's so sublime to define that we deserve it This is the time for us to be courageous No matter what we've been through in these stages If we're keeping accurate records or burning pages Because the power of love is so contagious Impermanent concerns that we burn on sojourns of the soul Will help light the sky Meditations on death and demise and these times Makes one feel so alive inside Change is the strangest refrain That punctuates our life and makes us laugh and cry So may all the blessed lessons of life Answer my questions of how and why

One Dub 04:20
One Dub Lyrics and Music by Mason Lucas The truth will not be revealed in the trivialities of so called education Reality will not be elucidated in profit based syndicated news spectacles The competition for control will not be depicted amidst scoreboards and advertising banners The path to higher divinity will not be sold to the highest bidder One Blessed is the one who will show kindness compassion and respect Blessed is the one who treads lightly in this world Blessed is the one who manifests positivity through their actions Blessed is the one who radiates love to all Hiya higher jay ma We're sipping nectars from the manantial Me dicen people ha venido de alla Con suss cuentitos of the sweetness of Jah Los bendiciones are the only vale ya Bless a lonely rabbi when he blow the chofar So far conditions en the mundo cabman Siempre trabajamos hasta victoria One Hiya higher jai bhagvan Bismilla el Rachmad Elohim ramazan Estey hamro jivan buri jankri kam Mantanemos protejidos en sangha Gaia se ha hado todo lo que tendra Y nuestros espiritos ojala Que les van a volar con valor a El Dorado Dona nobis pacem y libertad One The wise man will not tarry over folly The humble man will not squander in a volley Shanty towns now you know they're full of knowledge So yoga man with the Kali stay jolly

Im Lak'esh 03:29
Im Lak'esh Lyrics and Music by Mason Lucas My roots reach up in the air My branches are bending here and there My mind is old my heart is young but it's been everywhere My rings are the only things I have to wear I've got to grow to be a positive logical hominid operative Confident and open to the opposites Cause all of the venomous enemies turn into friends In the end the condemned is defended burning in effigy and I see the unity and soon to be equality I'm on the non duality beyond my own reality I'm from an old galaxy with the whole family We're feeling the love you know I"m glad to be here Where I can rest a while With you my dear so do your best to smile While my tears run wild like NIle crocodiles They disappear but they'll be back in a couple of miles Cause all of us are born to make some more mistakes in congregations So lay me down I will speak in simple sounds Maybe now we're going to make it loud My shins have been kicked but I will stand My limbs are ripped I am a man And the head on my shoulders is controlling The flow of the vocals like molten boulders Exploding in the ocean My fins are walking on dry land Beneath the explanation of experience Beyond the harmful laws of the delirious Before we start to take it all so serious Before we all move on from the mysterious here Where we'll always be We made it this far chronologically And it's beautiful too Looking at you watching me Cause I realize it's I and I Looking back at me And all of us are born to make some more mistakes in congregations So lay me down I will speak in simple sounds Maybe now we're going to make it loud There's nothing holding me back but the past Nothing keeping me here but the future
