Dialectic Prayer

Fun little ditty singing in a non-language (any similarity to an actual language is totally unintentional). I dedicate this to my friend I've never met Quynn, gifted healer.

Hotep Mambo:
Hotep:
"An Egyptian word that roughly translates as "to be satisfied, at peace". The word also refers to an "offering" ritually presented to a deity or a dead person, hence "be pleased, be gracious, be at peace".
Mambo:
"The word was used to mean “shake it” or “a conversation with the Gods.” (according to Google)

"It's getting to that spiritual level where the communication is total and you leave the ego behind"  
Achieving improvisational nirvana is reaching that point where you can't do any wrong, when you're improvising, it's where the brain is fully focused on listening/reacting and the body just does what it's supposed to do, and there's no thought and there's no question, and no matter what you do, it's right.
