vocal sample:

that’s his purpose
...to balance the equation

and what’s your purpose
...to unbalance it



lyrics:

he springs forth
from a cloud and
he falls down
sees the ground
but he doesn’t know
if he’s allowed in
this new world
has him surrounded
he is searching for answers
he hasn’t found them
so he just keeps floating
as if he’s in a boat
he isn’t even rowing
as he moves
he hasn’t a clue
as to where he is going
without resisting
he is headed
wherever the clouds will lift him
true
this world is new
but how’s it different
will the people here
be bothered
by the number of children
that die of hunger
each time they count a minute
this is precisely
why he’s floating around to begin with
he had to distance himself
go to the outermost limits
of the pitiful hell
that he found he lives in
he couldn’t ignore
he had to explore
the power within him
his hatred
has become
second nature to him
he’s become so numb
he doesn’t realize how painful it is
for a brief moment
he sees a leaf blowing
away from its limb
he’s aware that there is a path
it’s on its way to the end
but just for a second
for the sake of pretend
what if it could be reattached
put back in place at the stem
what if he could remove death
unbalance the equation to live
such are his thoughts
he knows
that’s not the way that it is
he isn’t naive
he just doesn’t believe in ’take what you get’
he won’t just sit back
and wait like a bitch
he will approach
rather than go away
life’s a bitch
he hates it
it’s not like he’d wish
it’s not even close
so he will design a remote
that will take him to any station he picks
travel the distance
of a slight difference
of time and space in a blip
that quick to a new dimension
i’ve been insane for a bit
if you’re like me and not like you
this planet’s making you sick
so support jophiel
buy what he sells
start saving some kids
jackhammer the ground
and pave it again
every few days
you should try to unendanger what’s dim
restore its natural glow
air has to blow
that’s the way of the wind
the rotation
the spin
push away from without
to embrace what’s within
....revolution
don’t say it
make it exist
without evolution
change
the human race isn’t shit
they are insignificant specks
and they will go unnoticed
over the course of time
when your world and mine
have both exploded
if boundaries were meant for my mind
it would have overloaded
the moral of this story
is the mind should be wholly open
with antenna movements
reception
what comes after a human
the change in reception
is less than
the actual movement
it’s the perspective of a master
with the lack of a student
when there’s nothing to do
but stimulate growth
fast evolution
antenna movements
reception
what comes after a human
the change in reception
is less than
the actual movement
it’s the perspective of a master
with the lack of a student
when there’s nothing to do
but stimulate growth
fast evolution


vocal sample:

isn’t it interesting
how the truth
...is even harder to absorb than light
