As I think about my past days
Then I think about my last days
Was it all about the cash chase
Adrenaline fast race
Forget about my blood tribe
Dumb guy
Recently when I be surfing on the net
I rarely see reality, integrity, respect
And the truth it hurts my heart
Like when I wrote It Hurts My Heart
Does this mean I'm blanketed in the dark with Elliot's last name
Untouchable Dwayne
Can only mean remove myself from all bodies of this plain
And I'm not talking spirited
I'm talking clearer things
Like looking in the mirror your reflection say here it is
And you gasp as you are shaken and awaken and steered a through
And you pass to see perspectives from a different view
Mind progression is the one type
Above life
And without it like bringing a knife to gun fight

But when we consider Being-with a capital 'B'-this includes not only such 'is'es as celestial bodies
but also such 'isn't's as the space that encompasses them

But now, a perfectly logical person would therefore say that the notion of the Self¬-the Ātman, as the fundamental reality in which everything else exists-is meaningless

As I sit near the setonaikai in Hiroshima. It gets deeper my connection with the planet and its features
But I still remember the importance of swiping a visa that can bring you to the places where you need a proper visa
Just to enter
If you young and black hearing my voice
Living abroad by your lonesome will relive you of choice Not choice like freedom
But, choice like was that racism just now should I beat or teach em
Not to say life abroad is without flaws
All my problems just change and become all ours
I hate to think that wherever I go
Based off my skin tone
I'm the enemy
Based off yours you my enemy
And you dead to me
That' too much weight to hold
But know I will never fold
I try to move
One step at a time
Towards my goal
That's the only way that I know

But just all us human beings rattling around
we're not even rooted to the ground like trees
And therefore it's very easy for us to form the impression that I am only what is inside my bag of skin
And that my Self is a different Self from your Self
And we're all, therefore fundamentally disconnected

There are days in Kurahashi where I keep it very lonesome
Cause I wanna hear my own thoughts float across the ocean
If you get it, get it right away
My brainstorm a tidal wave
Catch me riding down that thing
Look at me posing
Coasting across the seams
Of imaginary beams
That were created from my Being
Not to interrupt ya'll dreams
Cause it seems
We ignore one another's themes
Eating chips, the other cleans
Where's the sense behind these things
But I just try to follow golden rules
Not say I follow golden rules
Then treat my people like absent fathers do
Weary of cats saying they own a crew
Cause that community talk is so that they can take advantage of your overview
A little selfish
But I've been for myself
My family, friends and my pals
Reciprocal treatment that swells
My heart
I'm me before anything else
And just know that's how the cards have been dealt

And so your apparent disconnection-the fact that you are not tied to other people with umbilical cords
or some kind of wiring that gives you one mind-nevertheless we do have one mind
In the sense that, for example, all of us turn out to be approximately the same shape
Two eyes, two nostrils, a mouth, two hands, two legs, and so on

A haiku poem-Japanese haiku-says: A hundred gourds from the mind of one vine
Now, the Hindus do say that the Self-the great Self-is consciousness
But of course, that does not mean consciousness in the sense of our ordinary everyday consciousness
Ordinary everyday consciousness is indeed a form of this kind of consciousness-shall we say
a manifestation of it? -but then there's also consciousness which doesn't notice
but nevertheless is highly responsive
The way your heart beats, the way you breathe, the way you grow your hair: you're doing it
But you don't know how it's done
