Clearing the Path to Ascend

All my life Stared into flames Of the gods Of our gods Burning In this dreaming unease In my eyes Colors wane in the halls Hallowed halls Send my roots Into unknown fields Frantic mind Bastard tongues Spirit desease Sent by the lost Blinding the vision Within Stealing the light For itself Deep inside The dark clamored In us Even near Revealed And seen without feer Shed the skin Expose the heart In twilight Azure grace Return this Shadow's embrace Transmute mind Atomic shift Quantum incision Spirit vision Sent by the one Unified wisdom Shining Clearing the path To ascend The blood speaks to Quicken Eternal rivers within From womb to the womb Rain falls to the sea From the leaf to the ground Falls the reed into sound From birth unto the tomb Love breathes to release These shackles of mind This empty ruler These clouds on the screen From the state in between Where in our blood We always know In our blood We always know

Churning maelstrom A dying kiss Fury let loose Straight into a noose Dreaming disguise Of what's at stake Clutching trusted lies Feeling sick inside It's time to end The story It isn't what I see It isn't what I know It isn't what it seems No high or below Nothing for the grave Nothing for the kings Nothing to sacrifice Nothing to win Nothing to win So I take This weary heart And bleed it out Unchackle my illusions And bleed them out Like flesh out of its skin Ragged and raw Where images end And living begins Where ideas of truth Give way to the taste When everything we love Is everything we break I dream it's all true It's the chance I take It's time to end The story

Witness of old A wave to the sea Open chest to the eyes Eternal Wounded stars Fall as they must To suffer unto wisdom For the soul to trust Trust Unmask the sceptre Arise Rigpa arise Silent in the shadow Nature flows to its source Let this moment grace Blood for the river to chase Arise Rigpa Unmask the sceptre Rigpa arise Storming swells A skiff in the sea Tempered by witness Eternal The hammer Falls as it must Ringing unto wisdom For the soul to trust Trust Razor tongues Safe upon the shore Blind to the deep While the storm rages forth Who can grasp The undercurrent's roar Safe in the shell Safe upon the shore Moon brings in the tide Earthen mother enshrined Blazing spiral maze Nature inherent Witness of old Suffer unto wisdom The hammer falls as it must Ringing unto wisdom For the soul to trust Behold the dawn Break through the seal All we cherish In fires revealed Unearth our eyes Never more real In blessed silence I see

All these things That have come to pass Emptied well Of times that never last Rhythms speak Sun to winter's call Pouring forth they Beckon to enthrall Burnt clean eyes Reach into our graves Into the scars Of our truth Of life within The stars All these words Are dust within my mind In these times That burn within our sight Yearning to know Deep into the marrow Fall And see When there's no ground To feel To endure Rise in the heart Time will crawl To the sea Time will fall Inside the dream Weathered stone Rivers running deep Flying wings In skies that never sleep Earthly blood Speaking in the stone Sounding calls That want us to believe Cleansing flames Burn into the night Into the scars Of our truth Of life within The stars Restless souls Flickering light Painted in gold Tearing at the seams Needing to feel One true moment Needing to feel Something true
