앨범 : The Spirit Of Apollo
From the drop of blood
to bones and body parts
To vital organs forming
your brain and tiny heart
You'll feed to escape the birth
until puberty finally starts
Adolescence so don't
then your elderly body rocks
It was divine decree
that begun the plan
But this disease be decreed
by the sons of man
Don't try to leave
with the guns in hand
Understand
God's the one in command
Did we climb out of the sea
Where did we come from
you and me
Two legs to walk and as you see
I'm not a man I want to be
People growing my backyard
I'm growing in your backyard
In my garden in my heart
I'm in your garden I'm in your heart
Pink and purple red and blue
See all the colors
On this sunny afternoon
It's a sunny afternoon
Back before time was time
and space was space
The ever present eye divine
so laced with grace
Decided it was time to try
to chase to chase
But what it would design now
life is taking place
Within itself divided
now it takes some space
And it can't be found alive
the mind creates the state
Of ego now what's mine is mine
OK now hate
will reign until the blind
have eyes and lay awake in wait
How are the seeds in the ground
How is my garden growing now
A tender kiss a little smile
The way a mother holds its child
Tasty little human beings
Tasty little human beings
I grow them on the people tree
I grow them on the people tree
I will eat them one by one
Eat them one by one
If there's enough for everyone
Like you and you
Born in the ever flowing life
beyond the dirt
Tell me what the purpose
is for creating the earth
Maybe we created the planet
as man's habitat
Be fruitful and multiply
across the planet's back
Well why does hate exist
The war and AIDS and shit
If we're to be fruitful
why can't poor people pay they rent
'Cause love and hate
both sides are conjoined
Physical forms have to
deal with both sides of the coin
Why do we die So you can live
Why do we strive
So you can win
But why did you defy
every truthful word I recommend
My question back
why do you recommend
an ode temptationing
So I can test your patience
and tolerance in the face of sin
But why attest
when you hold all the answers
to the state we in
For you to bear
witness of imperfections
of mortal men
So it's a lesson And a blessing
Journey back to where you been
'Cause before the tree can flourish
seeds must first be planted in
People growing my backyard
I'm growing in my backyard
In my garden in my heart
If you like my garden
you might like me
Look at all the colors
Underneath the people tree
