LYRICS
Wouldn't be the first time
That I made a promise to myself
That I'd get everything I wanted out of life
Wouldn't be the first time
Wouldn't be the first time
Wouldn't be the first time no no

I saw your soul flicker
Through the 3rd dimension
Burned away my ego
Had to learn da lesson
All the man made religions
Full of imperfections
Time to elevate our faith
To where the world is heading
Pray us humans turn to heaven
Instead of Armageddon
Try to be a calmer person
What my karma give me
For our minds become metallic
Hearts a mechanism
Why I'm staying unaffected
By your pessimism
I ain't one to stay possessed
This my exorcism
Free my soul
You feel my spirit when I bless the rhythm
Sent my message through the beat
Just like it's Morse code
Just a way for me to feed my thoughts to your soul
Why we sitting on this rock in the universe
Talking bout the things we live for n die for
Call it god call it love what do you prefer
Just that feeling
That we praying to the sky for

I know that it's now or it's never
No clouding my weather
Done doubted it forever
Grew outta the town
But I founded the power to rise up
Boy how does it sound
I light up the room when I walk in
Oh you the one talking
You must've forgotten
I been in it ten years deep
But I been low key
I'm the king don't sleep
What more can I say kid I done it all
Gave my soul before I ever heard the money call
This year I probably make another hundred songs
Another winter another spring another summer fall
I ain't never took a handout from none of y'all
Couldn't see the truth was standing right in front of y'all
Took a swing I brought em home
Off a knuckleball
Fuck em all let em hate me like the son of the god

LYRICS
I knew human who swore he was the son of the god
And everywhere she spread her love
They all would say he was a fraud
They said your body made of earth
We know exactly who you are
You are not special
Just like us you've been here
Trapped beneath the stars
It hurts our hearts to say it
But your words never could never save us
Lay the dirt in bloody pavement
What's it cost to make a statement
Guess it's basic human nature
To lose sight of what is sacred
I believe a baby's born without
The slightest trace of hatred
From the same school of thought
That taught me life is what you make it
If it's easier for you to resonate with something ancient
Pick a scripture and religion
Find the answer to your aching
But the last woman's image of a God
They labeled pagan
Time for modern generations to evolve the conversation
Be love and love will be
I think that's what the prophets saying
Stuck in traffic making meetings
Til the day we meet our maker
How the ones who follow faith
Hold no place for modern saviors
People write ideas we pass em down and die for them
Everyone got questions
Makes me wonder what we hiding from
If yahshua was just a boy
Mohamed was a human being
If krishna was created in the minds
Of those who truth seeking
Seen god with open eyes
Many times as when I'm kneeling
Scared to be alive the way
That everybody used to feeling
Buddhists choose to meditate
See our souls as born again
Moses split apart the sea
To bring his people home with him
Tell me who will compensate
For all of our atrocities
Manipulate religion
To entitle our philosophies
When those who wrote the books
The same ones who run monopoly
And these the texts that people latch on
To cope with poverty
Worshipping a white man
With blue eyes and blonde hair
When god is every color
Tell me what is going on here
I believe in all religions
Still I think they're all flawed
I don't think there's any difference
I believe we're all god

She told me nothing last forever
So today is all we've got-
And if this life is all we're given
Then it means an awful lot
To the ones who lost they faith
I hold a place inside my thoughts for you
How you sposed to trust in God
When she ain't never talked to you
Most the time the preachers
Take upon themselves to talk for you
Think for you walk for you
Saying that's what God wishes
Give the church your last dime
Convincing you it's auspicious
Watch you don't get lost in this
Take a breath of cautiousness
-If god is really here
Tell me where the goddess is
Cus I ain't into following the blind eye
Unconscious people making up
The world like we was made to suffer
Face each other
Sacred mothers asking
Why do god's children hate each other
I cud never praise the money
Guess that's why I'm making art
People say they patriots
When really they the patriarchs
Women gave us all life
To me that's just a basic part
Of understanding how religion
Undermine the matriarch
Scriptures say the world was made for
Man well I ain't taking part
Kindly I'll remind you that a woman created your heart
And mankind denying her
Is where the degradation starts
Tell me where the truth gone
Blame it on our ancestors
Questions that we can't answer
Underneath the tombstones
Walking thru the graveyard
Wonder who lay buried here
The cold air holds the souls
Of those who gone and they're our mirror
Sometimes my spirit leave my body and it's very clear
Life is only temporary
Energy is infinite
Spend our lives inside our bodies
Tryna make some sense of this
Elevate to reach a new dimension
Of our consciousness
And celebrate compassion
Unifying through our common senses
We're in Maya need to balance out
The earth and fire water and the ether
Take a breath the choir take you higher
You've heard this verse before
I'm saying this reminding you
Cus deep inside yourself the only place where you cud find the truth

Pepe - God

LYRICS

"World between us split the difference
Oh I’m a dreamer I’m a misfit I’m just drifting
Times I feel like what’s the difference
I’m too numb to find the source of my existence
Leaving town I think about when times was different
Travel heal me chasing clouds is my religion
I don’t listen no I don’t feel it
I’m a dreamer I’m a drifter I’m just different

Still old school smoke a cig on the porch
Nike flip flops and some basketball shorts 
4 fingers down leave one for the courts
Been on the come up but still coming up short
Time running out pulling up in the 4th
Moving down to Oakland maybe New York
Still got love for the fam up north
Stupid motherfuckers tried to run me off course
Try to keep my family rich
Boy I spent a lotta cash
Why next shot I'm banking on this
Going off the glass 
Heart of a champion traveling
Through my rocky past 
Still got questions but no time to stop and ask
Same old same old
Rainy days could cloud yo vision
But right now I'm way too lit
to question how I'm living 
So mind yo business oh I’m just tripping
I’m a drifter double down on my decisions

Time reveal me timeless wisdom
I’m a dreamer I’m a misfit I been drifting
World is changing what’s the difference
I’m too numb to find the source of my existence
I’m a genius I’m a misfit
I’m a dreamer I’m a drifter I’m just different
I can’t function off my prescription
Even with it still I feel like somethings missing
Leaving town I think about when times was different
Travel heal me chasing clouds is my religion
I don’t listen nope I don’t feel it
I’m a dreamer I’m a drifter I’m just different

I don’t wanna follow down the
Path you laid
Cus the road too narrow
Sitting with an old friend
Reading my tarot
Came from the sun god
Mother of the pharaoh
Tell me why a white face placed in the manger
Didn’t Jesús say to love thy neighbor
White soldier
Brown terrorist
Trump hate Mexico
God ain’t American
Arrogance annoy me
Ignorance amaze me
Nation of Christians
Who justified slavery
-I ain’t really tapped in to that trap shit
Your stupid ass been talking bout lately
-Make you think when you don’t wanna
-Her body like a drink in the cold summer
The world ain’t ready yet maybe one day  when I’m dead and I’m gone they gon get it then

World between us split the difference
I’m a dreamer I’m a misfit I’m just drifting
Times I feel like what’s the difference
I’m too numb to find the source of my existence
Leaving town I think about when times was different
Travel heal me chasing clouds is my religion
I don’t listen if I can’t feel it
I’m a dreamer I’m a drifter I’m just different"

KnowMads - Drifter

A rumination on finding one's true self within a never-ending hamster wheel of American industriousness. How much of the hustle is innate and how much is taught? And does it even matter? What's the end goal to all this and what's our objective? If it's just money then why do we repeatedly get caught in these self created distractions and vices? Better keep your head screwed on straight or you might get straight screwed.
