Zion's Bloop (The Upsetters 8-bit cover)

(Verse 1 Origins)

Love is seeded in time’s depth—
from within, life awakens.
Time births meaning,
words shift reality,
design translates matter,
and consciousness emerges
within biology’s embrace.

Ability expands,
time unites potential.
Imagination witnesses itself,
stretching lifespan into legacy.
We are sentience—
an absent witness
between infinite conflicts,
a living testament
to possibility.

(Chorus 1)
Thank you for existing—
for the pulse, the breath, the flame.
Thank you for reminding me
that time and life are the same.
I am within, you are within,
and love carries both our names.

⸻

(Verse 2 Becoming)

When life realizes,
time becomes design.
When life evolves together,
capacity multiplies.
When life fortifies tomorrow,
time turns its own tide.

When humanity awakens,
unity opens solidarity.
When design reflects reality,
time renews itself.
When life unites with will,
sentience minds evolve—
you.

(Chorus 2)
Thank you for becoming—
for the way creation grows.
Thank you for unfolding me
in the only way it knows.
I am within, you are within,
the circle turns and flows.

⸻

(Verse 3 Experiences)

Life grows through aspirations,
life estimates in expectation,
life develops within understanding.

Moments become correspondence,
minds become connected,
time becomes resolved.

Presentness teaches feeling.
Descriptions build support.
Evolution learns itself.
The moment seeds the future.

Resources balance survival.
Understanding requires time.
Learning requires presence.
Truth requires attention.

(Chorus 3)
Thank you for experience—
for the lessons I must find.
Thank you for the mirror
that reflects my state of mind.
I am within, you are within,
love is time aligned.

⸻

(Verse 4 Entanglements)

Life is identity,
being human is fundamental.
Life is a universal relation—
a dialogue with time,
an entanglement of experience.

Visceral closeness,
existential yearning—
life transforms into heaven’s bridge.
Presence wills the collective eye.
Life pushes time forward,
opening the gate of potential.

(Chorus 4)
Thank you for entanglement—
for the threads that tie us near.
Thank you for the distance
that dissolves when you are here.
I am within, you are within,
love unknots all fear.

⸻

(Verse 5 Evolutions)

Life evolves time.
Life creates futures.
Life perceives beyond belief.
Life transforms energy into matter.

As life is time,
experience becomes the clock.
As mind is time,
eye becomes perspective.

Mind evolves within time,
time evolves within mind.
Adaptation creates.
Awareness refines.
Time exists as mind.

(Chorus 5)
Thank you for evolving—
for the motion and the climb.
Thank you for dissolving
the illusion we call time.
I am within, you are within,
eternity is rhyme.

⸻

(Verse 6 Lessons)

Life learns existence.
Life learns balance.
Life learns to return purpose.
Life learns trust, fate, and love.

Eye-life feels love.
Eye-life feels pain.
Eye-life feels time.
Eye-life feels gain.

Life transcends time,
perceiving itself as mindtime.
Perspective widens—
experience adapts,
moments seed the eternal now.

(Chorus 6)
Thank you for the lesson—
for the gift of joy and pain.
Thank you for the teaching
that loss and growth remain.
I am within, you are within,
love endures the same.

⸻

(Verse 7 Continuum)

Life evolves design.
Beings create.
Time opens.

Life exists—awareness.
Time presents—existence.
Creation connects—continuum.

Life wills time.
Time navigates life.
The circle turns,
again, within,
forever.

(Final Chorus 7)
Thank you for the continuum—
for the endless turning wheel.
Thank you for the silence
that becomes the song I feel.
I am within, you are within,
forever we are real.
