lyrics

Hook

The same light that shone at Creation

The same light we need to awaken

The same light we saw as a fetus

Close eyes and revel in the sweetness

The same light that shone at Creation

The same light we need to awaken

The same light we saw as a fetus

Close eyes and revel in the sweetness


Verse 1 (16)

There’s a light that shines from one side of the world to the other

And it’s ours to recover

It was shining while we were inside the womb of our mother

Then we emerged to discover
-
It was hidden in this world of division that we livin’ in

Refinding this light is the mission that we’re ministrin’

The most unlikely conditions can imprison it

Inviting us right into the thickest of it
-
And there we find that it’s

All inside that it’s

Up to us

If we

See it shining

And when we do

There’s a simple truth

That it’s in our hands

That we get to choose
-
Every root of a seed of a spark of perception

Each hint of a thought can create a connection

Or sever it

The choice is a treasure beyond measure so let’s

Not separate our minds from forever




Hook


The same light that shone at Creation

The same light we need to awaken

The same light we saw as a fetus

Close eyes and revel in the sweetness








Verse 2 (20)

How long you think these flames been rising?

Since way before the sun even started shining

These little twitter bigots wanna Hitler with their digits

I’m not tripping for a minute

I am living the Infinite
-
It’s hard to internalize

We’re eternal

When others point to it

It first seems a burden

The same flame that lit the way for Abraham***** and David

Still maintain today if we appreciate it
-
Lighting up our eyes with the whisper of the sacred

Letting it inside through the crack where the break is

What they see as weak is the source of our strength

After every retreat we’ve been born again
-
Standing under over

Outside the system solar

See it all inverted

What’s the known and who’s the Knower

Everything is relative and we are all just vessels in

Benevolent experiments for love to manifest its
-
Full potential

Spiritual and physical and mental

Phenomena at core share a unity essential

Every generation gives the message we were meant to

If you see the flame you won’t need to ask “Who sent you?”




Hook


The same light that shone at Creation

The same light we need to awaken

The same light we saw as a fetus

Close eyes and revel in the sweetness

The same light that shone at Creation

The same light we need to awaken

The same light we saw as a fetus

Close eyes and revel in the sweetness
