{lyrics - improvised}


it's so early in the morning now
and i don't know why i cannot find my sleep
to clear my throat
got you stuck in between 
my life and i cannot find myself
in this confusion
in this con-fusion
all these conditions are making me confused

so early in the morning 
i cannot find what i am
it's three thirty-one a.m. 
i can't find no one

i need to find my sleep
i need to find my sleep
i need to leave this vessel when the time come
would you come with me now
would you come with me as we transcend this
state of existence
over to the other side
come with me now

so these instructions for the dead
i will to tell you now
there are things in this life
that we should realise
it's so beautiful 
that we have a chance
on this plane of existence
what beautiful chance

seldom do we realise
seldom do we see 
until it's all gone
and i have gone to the other side
and returned again
with a message and a mission

i am a man of myth
i am a man without form

if you seek to know my name
i have none
if you seek to know who i am
you will be confused
that's the way i am 
in diversions and seclusion
i am shy 
if that is what you want to believe that
so i would let you

so these are the instructions for the dead
and you got to know it while you're here
in case you never meet me
in case you've missed me

i will tell you now
and stop wasting my chords with you
but you have to get your mind ready
your soul has to be aligned
aligned with the celestial chord

instructions for the dead
you have to remember
when you go
when you go
you will be disorientated
you will lose your form
and everything is losing its sequential logical meaning
and everything is like a dream
but you cannot wake from

you may put aside
what you may believe in
the first is what you are 
your subconscious will blow to the front

when it does it is hell
when it does it is hell
so cleanse it now 
while you are alive
cleanse all your fears
cleanse all those thoughts and issues 
that plague you that prevent you from being you
and all those fears and all those repressions
and all those things that make you pee and
or make you submit to their authority

clear that all 
with this mantra
clear that all
with the realisation of the yamashita riki

just remember me
remember who i am
remember my name
and remember all the things that i have taught you
remember, remember my name
remember my image
my image is one of my soul
the name is my other
and my soul that you know
is my third soul
we have all three souls
and now being in expression
that we share
not our bodies 
not our minds
but our souls

remember when you are over there
when you pass all this hatred
when you pass all the things 
and you are scared
but don't be afraid
all these grey monotone worlds
that you see
that you see 
you feel lost, distant

be afraid
don't be afraid
i am here when you remember me

remember me
remember me
remember me
if you are dead

you walk over the other side
remember
remember
the yamashita riki

what its symbol and its form
in expression and its name
and the being yamashita riki
and what it represents
and what it resonates 
the AOM

AOM

remember well
bring it all over the other side
remember well
bring it all over the other side

so live well
live well
live well 
while you are here
live well
live well
live well
while you are here
and don't compromise who you are
that is what they cannot take away
remember me
remember
yamashita riki

AOM
