Mind Notes Pt.28 'Modern Adaptation'






Open your eyes
And see the truth
It's right in front of you
It's not hard to understand
What are you going to do
Make the most of life
Roll with the situation
Adapt to your environment
Modern Adaptation

Open your eyes
And see the truth
It's right in front of you
It's not hard to understand
What are you going to do
Clarify perceptions
Never get it misconstrued
Stand up when it's time for action
It's time to move


I'm stuck inside these concepts
Of Jedi mind tricks
Trying to work out
Some of the glitches in this matrix
There's too many bypasses
And breaks in the circuits
That why I'm trying to keep it fluid
And flow like electric
Transmitting crystal clear
And cutting through the static
So you could get a taste
Of these amateur dramatics
Listen carefully
As I map out mad schematics
And try and follow the blueprints
To these verbal mathematics
This is not propaganda
It's just vocal consciousness
It's not up to me
If you decide
You want to follow this
I ain't got all the answers
Because I'm far from marvellous
It's just my point of view
And I'm right here
I'm sharing it
Too many walk the walk
But they really ain't wearing it
Trying to talk the talk
But they're really talking...
Twisted perceptions
Got them thinking
That they're cool and hip
But they ain't changing nothing
They're just rolling
With the rulership


Speaking in real tongues
With truths
You never heard before
Deep like greek mythology
Theseus and Minotaur
Chicken or the egg
Big bang and the dinosaurs
Analysing my culture
Surrounded by carnivores
   I'm trying to expand my experience
And culture man
I want to socialise
And travel to some foreign lands
Forget the hatred
The governments and secret plans
I'm meeting brothers and sisters
Chilling on golden sands
Living natural
Experience the other side
At one with the elements
The sun
The moon
The tide
At one with mother nature
The Earth
The land
The sea
Living real real
Living righteously
Reading knowledge
Expanding my creativity
Thinking deeper thoughts
Away from negativity
Staying on point
Make the most of my abilities
Because my state of mind
Is strictly positivity

Mind Notes Pt.27 'Broken Rhymes 3'




Brains swirl
Mad scriptures prevail
Running with the lions
Trying to make it to Zion
Many planes  crash and burn
But through the sky we're still flying
Nothings free
We search for peace
But the powers keep lying
Flash from the smoke
While fires keep rising
Planet earth dying
From this human enterprising
Used and abused
And left feeling worthless
False respect
Leads to false purpose


Stark glares
Cut like tower blocks
Through skylines
Stark dares
Evil acts
Clinging to our lifelines
Serious risks
But people keep going back
Like a fiend dying for food
But yet he reach for the crack
Pressure simmer
And the voices just keep on calling
Hunger burning
And the bodies just keep on falling
It's a struggle every day
Just waking up in the morning
We just trying to stay alive
To see a new day dawning


To expose the facts
How long will it take
How long before truth reveals
What's real and fake
There's something bad in the air
And it's not the weather
Kinetic energy from movements
While we scramble for cheddar
Hop cracks in the street
Avoid the crack in the street
Hungry foes step on toes
Got to watch your feet
No respect
People ruthless
We fly through light years
Shed heavy tears
Realise our worst fears


Intelligence and technology
Keep advancing
Puppet masters pull strings
So puppets keep dancing
No unity community
Got to prove yourself
Because it's get or get got
In this system of wealth
So we function
On a dysfunctional level
The few control the truth
So they're not on our level
But we continue to endeavour
Until the end of our tether
Because we know we're not alone
And we can make it together


Reservations
About certain situations
Like fate of the nations
And tax inflations
Nerves wear thin
Like paper patience
Looking through the looking glass
We study the ancients
But no reparations
They keep dropping bombs
Keep passing laws 
So our freedoms are gone
It's a cold cut clear case
Of corruption
Don't believe the lies
Because these people keep bluffing


Coming up
With big expectations
But waiting in vain
Leads to frustrated nations
Some flee from train stations
Or locked in police stations
Some in tropical locations
Some are hospital patients
But we remain gracious
And keep the peace
But if our buttons get pushed
Then some release the beast
Because we're all human beings
And we're born to eat
We share the sun, moon & stars
And the air we breathe

Mind Notes Pt.26 'Marvellous Mirage'




We sit and wonder
About this marvellous mirage
The journey's unclear
We're trying to read the stars

We sit and wonder
About this wonderful world
Delusions of grandeur
In minds of boys and girls


Man doesn't live
On just bread alone
But we all born alone
And we all die alone
But love remains the emblem
Of eternity
Mother nature
The loving hands of maternity
The ultimate measure of a man
Is not where he stands
In times of comfort
And convenient plans
But where he stands in times
Of challenge and controversy
Like the late great Martin said
We must show mercy
Peace, Love
And no police
We all free to travel lands
And just walk the streets
If our eyes were open wide
And our minds were free
We could be living side by side
In harmony
They say that's all stuff of dreams
Just fantasies
And I shouldn't let my thoughts
Run away with me
But my response is
Are you sitting comfortably
Because I'd like to share some thoughts
About this world we see


Fresh free music
Free yourself
Free your mind
The written word's
The greatest achievement
Of mankind
Rise the spawn
Of the dawn
Of rational reasoning
If we could write
We could rhyme
If we could talk
We could sing
So leave the skeletons
Locked firmly up in the cupboard
Because we got to move forward
Keep eyes looking upward
Never settle
For a personal settlement
Too many regrets
And you wonder
Where your dreams all went
Make actions that dictate
Chains of reactions
Enough is enough
We got far too many distractions
People make mockeries
Of these fake democracies
Do we die on our feet
Or do we live on our knees
Various varieties
Of different people and places
The geography of lands and seas
Found in hearts and faces
But regardless how many times
We seek and we find
We still wonder how colossal
Is the science of the mind


Fight your corner
Edge to make your last push
Lips speak their last words
Eyes take their last look
Turn the page of the book
As we start new chapters
Move forward
Avoid the fake fronters and actors
One two skip a few
And we're nearly there
But can we be cautious
And can we take care
Because there's no such thing
As lifetime stability
There's only opportunity
So act accordingly
What really matters
Is the state of your soul
Different people come and go
Like starts through black holes
So it doesn't really matter
What the people might say
Only answer to ourselves
At the end of the day
We manifest aspirations
Hard work and toil
Adjust the pressure levels
So the blood don't boil
Because each day is a test
So we stay on revision
Sit and marvel at this life
Through thoughts and inner visions

Mind Notes Pt.25 'Clarity'



Take a double take
Look once
Look twice
Look beneath the surface
There's more to life
Time ticks fast
We're all taking our chances
But every now and then
We get occasional glances
Of clarity


Time flies by
We keep ticking on
Whatever life throws
We still stand strong
The path is long
But the bricks ain't yellow
So we keep level heads
And keep the mood mellow
Conversations flow
Like the finest wines
Keep in good company
Relax and unwind
Whether long or short pockets
Everyone can reflect
Live life by your virtues
Always show respect
Sun rise and sun sets
The moon pulls the tide
Some try bridge the gap
But the margin is wide
We struggle and we strive
To succeed and win
Work hard
Because what we get out
Is what we put in
Always finish what we start
Stay true to the cause
Luck closes windows
But it opens doors
So remain optimistic
About your choices
Trust your own instinct
Ignore the voices


Some people admire
While others may envy
Those who feel jealousy
Hearts are always empty
Hearts that are fulfilled
Show love and encouragement
Feed food for thought
And give the soul nourishment
Thoughts run away
Minds conjure mad images
Indulge in fantasies
Imagination limitless
We gain information
Various different lessons
Answers allude us
We ponder questions
Different philosophies
Different outlooks
Is life written in the stars
Or is it written in books
What's our agenda
And whats our game plan
Schemes stick together
Like grains of sand
Music and poetry
Drama and dance
Life is so rich
Stop and take a glance
Climb up and fall down
Stand up again
We have to keep hope
Never quit until the end


Heaven and earth give birth
Wonderful creations
Join hands let's celebrate
Life's occasions
Days roll to nights
Nights roll to days
Are we here to stay
Or is it just a phase
Judgement day might come
Or might pass us by
So for now we keep moving
Because it's fly or die
Stare at the sky
Wonder about the universe expanse
The value of mother nature
Can't be stored in banks
Picture perfect
Who's taking the shots
Showing confidence
But stomach tied in knots
We venture boldly
Into unknown territory
Never quite know
What the outcome might be
Like Alice we adventure
Through the wonderland
Taking big strides
And making big plans
Turn the next corner
Find what's in store
Might be the wrong turn
But we always take more
