Light Years

[Sun Ra speaking]
Somewhere else, on the other side of nowhere, there's another place in space, beyond what you know as time

[Hook x2]
Shine your light now
Travel lightyears
Find your light now
Travel lightyears

[Verse 1: Gift of Gab]
The epitome of energy enhanced centering
Mentally beginning at the end. Remembering entering the gates of the temples of infinity
Riveting innate sensibilities, epiphanies levitating thoughts from the earth to begin to see
When the trees underneath my feet then begin to shrink. Eye level birds eye view where the buildings be
Tendency to find my alignment. It renders me helpless. Submit to the force that is lifting me
Instantly, the planet looks small but my senses free fall, should I say rise
Seems I'm in too deep, whole life flash by my eyes in like twenty-three seconds

[Verse 2: Gift of Gab]
As I pass mars, mass stars, planets all ajar in the solar system
See me float farther out of the galaxy. I realize there are more. How far does it go?
I wonder if there are no endings, beginnings. Yesterday is just tomorrow
Seen another sun, another earth, another mars. So far into space, wonder will I see the father
Learn the mysteries that were written by the author. If it doesn't end, where's it from, where'd it start though
Does it have direction or is all of this is all for nothing just a bunch of molecules who have lost our way
To my left thought I saw a flying saucer

[Verse 3: Gift of Gab]
Spotted a door floating in the distance it started getting more close
Felt as though I was about to have a metamorphosis. Cold lavender colours, everything was more, plus
Seven discs on the door spinning in a whirl, plus opened up my minds eye
Told me that a world was dwelling deep within way vaster than this world was
Flesh is temporary, just a dream, just a surface. Everyone's connected to one aim and one purpose
Empty out your thoughts, tame the lions in the circus
Opened up the door just to see what was inside, woke up in my room, it was all in my mind
It's all in the mind
