Akira The Don, Graham Hancock - Human In The First Place (The War On Consciousness) lyrics

There's a war on consciousness
There's a war on consciousness
There's a war on consciousness
There's a war on consciousness

Let's not forget that ayahuasca is not alone
That it's part of an ancient worldwide
System of the targeted, careful
Responsible alteration of consciousness
It's recently been shown that the
Kykeon used in the Eleusinian
Mysteries in ancient Greece was almost
Certainly a psychedelic brew
That the Soma of the Vedas may well have been
A brew based upon the
Amanita muscaria mushroom
We have the DMT in the
Ancient Egyptian Tree of
Life, we have the whole global cultures of
Surviving Shamanism and what it's all
About is a state of consciousness that's
Designed to help us find balance, harmony
The ancient Egyptians would have called
It Maat with the universe
And to remain mindful that what
We're here to undertake
On earth while immersed in matter
Is fundamentally a spiritual journey
Aimed at the growth and
Perfection of the soul
A journey that may go back
To the very origins
Of what made us human in the first place
Human in the first place
(Human in the first place)

Origins of what made us human
In the first place human in the first place
Human in the first place
Origins of what made us human
In the first place human in the first place
Human in the first place

There's a war on consciousness
There's a war on consciousness
There's a war on consciousness
There's a war on consciousness

And I stand here invoking the hard
Won right of freedom of speech
To call for and demand another
Right to be recognized and
That is the right of
Adult sovereignty over consciousness
There's a war on consciousness in
Our society and if we
As adults are not allowed to
Make sovereign decisions about
What to experience with our
Own consciousness while
Doing no harm to others
Including the decision to
Use responsibly ancient and
Sacred visionary plants
Then we cannot claim to be
Free in any way and
It's useless for our society to go around the
World imposing our form of democracy
On others while we
Nourish this rot at the heart of society
And we do not allow
Individual freedom over consciousness
It may even be that we're denying
Ourselves the next vital step in
Our own evolution by allowing the
State of affairs to continue
And who knows perhaps our
Immortal destiny as well thank you

Origins of what made us human
In the first place human in the first place
Human in the first place
Origins of what made us human
In the first place human in the first place
Human in the first place

Origins of what made us human
In the first place human in the first place
Human in the first place
Origins of what made us human
In the first place human in the first place
Human in the first place

There's a war on consciousness
There's a war on consciousness
There's a war on consciousness
There's a war on consciousness

There's a war on consciousness
There's a war on consciousness
There's a war on consciousness
War on consciousness
There's a war on consciousness
