RZA - Kill The Noise lyrics

Kill The Noise

Welcome to the exploration today, we will
Set our sights on a familiar
Adversary: distraction together
We will begin our quest to kill the
Noise before we take off
We need to ground ourselves

I want you to find a
Chill environment sit down in
A very comfortable position plant
Both feet squarely on
The ground place your hands together
Or rest them gently
On your knees now, close your eyes now
We breathe inhale through your
Nose and slowly
Out through your mouth continue with
Patience match my flow feel every inhale
Every exhale flow in flow out

Distraction for some, it’s a
Rare burden for many
It’s constant think about the distractions
That surround you and
Stifle your creativity sometimes it’s the
People or things around
Us you know, family issues
Or crazy coworker
Or phone that’s blowing up in your
Pocket sometimes the distractions pop
Up inside your own head from
Your own poison thoughts
Or ill-time ideas that steal your focus shit
I have them myself i may
Think I want this track to be
Doper than the other track, or my lyric
Could be better than the next emcee that
Competitive pressure can stagnate
You each new
Distraction makes us feel less in control
We create chaos, and at times
It feels like we’re completely
Surrounded i’m not
Gonna tell you that you can escape
Or ignore the chaos that’s fiction i’m gonna
Show you how to embrace it

My approach to life has been
To find order in chaos
I think of myself as the sun at the center
Of the universe and in my solar system
I’m surrounded by distractions all that shit
Is just planets, asteroids
And comets spinning around me or flying
Past me think of the things in
You life that stifles progress
Or heightens your anxiety observe what
Crashes into your orbit: noise
Work drama, negativity see them
All as little planets
Asteroids spiraling towards
You they feel like they have
An impact, but remember
You are the sun you have the power to
Put all that peripheral shit on notice

In this moment and in the moments
Ahead, when your mind wanders
I want you to pause and
Identify the nature of
The distraction irritation anger humor
Curiosity recognize each
Time something enters your orbit acknowledge
It note it categorize it, and let it return
To it's own orbit you have the
Power to act on it later
But for now just take notice
Again, acknowledge the distraction
Not the emotion that it
Causes then watch it drift away let it
Be that asteroid that fizzles out
Or the planet the planet that floats in
The distance this is how you
Exert your gravitational force on the chaos
Around you, take note of it
And then just let that shit just
Keep on spinning alongside of you

Alright now as we slowly
Return from our exploration
I want you to think about remaining in
The center of your solar system stay as the
Sun maintain the planets around you now
Open your eyes
