The Source - Desdamona, Sly & Robbie, Cherine

Lullabies linger like lollipops on luscious lips

I grab the mic but it slips from my grip

Sticks like the sweet to my tooth cavities

Like gravity, capture me, pull me back to eternity

My wisdom focused on the future, grasped to the past

Got to hold on make that goodness last

Contrast is twisted, static, plastic misfits

Invade my vision, ascension apprehended

Resurrection fades to oblivion

True and living ones

Set to crucifixion by the light of the sun

There’s only one love and there’s only one light

365 division but there’s only one fight

So put down your map and set your own course

And if you get lost remember love

Yeah, love is the source

Love is the light

Love is the reason

So love your life

Love is the source

Love is the light

Love love is the reason

So love your life

Love love love

Depressants be manic and panic is drastic

These kids sniff candy for the magic, tragic

Pandemic narcotic is caustic they drop it

To rocket, the cosmic, motion makes them nauseous

Not cautious of consequence, palpable evidence

It drains remains of the innate sixth sense

Hence forth we shall be the children chemically dependent

Stimulant mastering, reshaping the remnants

Of the beauty we used to be, yes possess

Rotten to the core when we used to be fresh

We used to be fresh

We used to connect

We used to be love and we used to respect

We used to know life and we used to protect

We used to be conscious of the things we ingest

Synthetic static wreaks havoc on the innocent

Rhetoric spastic bleeds panic power negligent

Intelligent showers manic sees plastic magic

Relevant hour frantic plea passive stagnant

What’s really going down?

What’s going down?

Epidemic spreads wide, force of the magnet

Evident contusions, it’s no coincidence

Prevalent loss of hope, slip knots the rope

Strange fruit hung from dysfunctional family tree

Carbon monoxide killing us inside

Blind to the signs while our eyes are open wide

I can’t see you can’t see me

And we content to walk this earth blindly

Remember love

Remember light

Remember reason

Remember life
