The Movement - THE GREAT DISCOVERY lyrics
[The Movement - THE GREAT DISCOVERY lyrics]
"Some people will use a symbolism
Of the relationship of God
To the universe, wherein God is a
Brilliant light, only somehow veiled
Hiding underneath all these forms
That you see as you look around you but
The truth is funnier than that it
Is that you are looking
Right at the brilliant light now
That the experience you are
Having which you call
Ordinary everyday consciousness - pretending
You're not it
- that experience is exactly the
Same thing as ‘IT’ there's
No difference at all and when
You find that out
You laugh yourself silly that's
The great discovery"
Don’t wanna hear no cliche
"In other words, when you really
Start to see things
And you look at an old paper cup, and you go
Into the nature of what it is to see
What vision
Is, or what smell is, or what touch is
You realize that that vision of the paper
Cup is the brilliant light of
The cosmos nothing could be brighter ten
Thousand suns couldn't be brighter"
Let me tell ya first
Don’t want no heat or no trouble
It’s just we have a thirst for
The beat and a bubble go and build your ego
We go leave you heroes in the rubble
And then we visualize our future in
The mirrors of the Hubble
Don’t wanna hear no cliche
Chomping at the bit but biting
Every word they say
Don’t wanna hear no cliche put it on repeat
Defeated when they speak in the street
Don’t wanna hear no cliche
Chomping at the bit but biting
Every word they say
Don’t wanna hear no cliche
Spin the phrase again
Poet say unoriginal sin
Ya walk around high steppin but
Don’t see your feet
And then you’re feeling so high
They don’t meet the street
To be ready for the winter
Gotta beat the heat
And to the righteous writer
Go and reach the peak, ya know
Every person is capable of a miracle
Steering across the city creating
A verbal vehicle
Being cool, calm, collected and humble
With no hysterical ranting and raving
Paving the way
Working together with all our people
It’s imminent
We’ll reach the apex on our own
Won’t be no derivative
Striving and fighting our way to
The top of the mountain
Giving it everything we have
Can’t stay bolted down cause they’re riveted
Limited is not a word we recognize
Great spirit listens if you give
In and beckon right use your third eye and
Reply with second sight
Realize the power of your words
Of the relationship of God
To the universe, wherein God is a
Brilliant light, only somehow veiled
Hiding underneath all these forms
That you see as you look around you but
The truth is funnier than that it
Is that you are looking
Right at the brilliant light now
That the experience you are
Having which you call
Ordinary everyday consciousness - pretending
You're not it
- that experience is exactly the
Same thing as ‘IT’ there's
No difference at all and when
You find that out
You laugh yourself silly that's
