[Verse 1]
I can't seem to quench this worst case of a thirst taste
I been searching for first place inside this cursed race
This deserted place is dry as the skull of a bull
The pull of the unknown wasteland attracts the gullible
My mind is full of sand dunes in tombs of the asphalt
As for my thoughts, they caught in cobwebs in the vault
Fought lines in the elks heart, split the wicked terrain apart
Spit from the heart, take all art with a grain of salt
I talk with teachers, taught to stalk with Bengal tigers
The saber tooth incisors shine like sun rays off a mica
I fought forces and walkеd courses with Trojan horses
Had long chats with infamous voices and madе choices
Drank poisons, heighten the effect with dank ointments
Made appointments with friends that ended in disappointment
Every emotion I've experienced, from fear to weariness
Experiments with bliss and death's kiss near the abyss
Pains appear on my wrist, it's too much, I got too little
Every day's a riddle against the devil with no fiddle
Middle of the Sahara, my soul arid from internal strife
I counted death twice & since been sentenced to eternal life
[Hook]
This here is passion in the midst of famine
Imagine dry air in your lungs while you gasping
Grasping handfuls of sand that's been thrashing
Ration water from the river, life everlasting
[Verse 2]
I can envision Eden rising upon the horizon like Oz
I dodge the lodge in camel hair camouflage
Trod across the sod, approaching the mirage
It's the demigod, Son of Man lost inside the synagogue
I'm nightly praying since sun is coming, find me waiting
Timely paces with temptations, get behind me, Satan
I wonder how it's hurting toward a temple, certain asunder
Murders at the hands of Bogournes, sons of thunder
Swam in streams of solitude now all I do is thirst
I hunger for companionship, I'm damaged and I'm cursed
Banished from villages, fulfilled prophecy in the wilderness
I made a pilgrimage to hell & I fell to the villainous
Scorned by supercilious, beneath this cloak is brilliance
I'm filled with resilience, may my message reach millions
I'm full with the bread of life but I fast to keep focused
I curb the urge to splurge, swallow honey with the locusts
Laid my head with scorpions, sleeps evasive, I'm forcing it
Fortunate odds from the God of dreams like Morpheus
Very soon I'm doomed, dead with my head severed
But never to be forgotten 'cause my spirit lasts forever
[Hook]
This here is passion in the midst of famine
Imagine dry air in your lungs while you gasping
Grasping handfuls of sand that's been thrashing
Ration water from the river, life everlasting
