Raheem 06:39
Taking off breath through the clouds. Dream of nights with foreign sounds. You knew you had to go there since all your greenest days spent saving monies to fly that time that place. Your sometimes soul shakes up to go. Your sometimes soul lights up to know. They're always asking me Where. They're always asking me Where. Going to Raheem? Where are you going to Raheem? Sometimes it just ain't your day. Too late or early in someway. Emails show you know the truth. Don't wait too long to burn up your youth. They're always asking me where. They're always asking me Where. Going to Raheem? Where are you going to Raheem? It's not random you've been screened. Sweat this pressure a jumping dream. yeah ah a ah Mind please stay calm heart stand down. What's the problem man? I just want out. Raheem Raheem Raheem Where are you going to? The trouble you go through. They're gunna move you. They pick and choose you. It's not too late to say You're sorry my good man Where's your baggage? Put the chair down. Do you under understand? I've been stuck inside this cage for way too long. Speak my language, I'm just here to see my mom.

Dreamt I left the lights of the city into the weeds we go Past the tales of cold fear committees keep some good people home. Time does not speed up I try and slow it down Perception is so relative so I'm on drugs when you're around. Time bends my mind to make more of it with you do I control it or it controls me? I think about it all the time. (Sitar) Into the weeds we go into our lives of snow. It's so cold when you don't know which way the wind is gunna blow.

Old World 06:05
Forget about the old world you're here you're now you're allowed to construct some vision you've felt when you've seen through the clouds Maybe not all of it Maybe it's fragmented Maybe you're not sure ah ah what they mean When they say all of this essentially the same looking on I see miles before me and everyday I get close to my grave I hope they burn me I do not want to be saved It's okay if you don't eat meat some of the days Free food and free speech should be made and served to me in every possible state Forget about the old world you're here you're now and you're allowed I hope they burn me I do not want to go down everybody is running out of town into the the soup of hornets from the sound
