lyrics
IT JUST KEEPS COMIN
BATTLE ON, BATTLE STRONG, STEADY BEAT DRUMMIN
CLEANSED AND EMPOWERED BY THE SOUND OF THE MANTRA
KEEP YOUR HEAD HIGH TIL THE CHANT IS THE CHANTER
I SAID IT JUST KEEPS COMIN
BATTLE ON, BATTLE STRONG, STEADY BEAT DRUMMIN
CLEANSED AND EMPOWERED BY THE SOUND OF THE MANTRA
KEEP YOUR HEAD HIGH TIL THE CHANT IS THE CHANTER
Thank peace for answers, even when they don't come
Won't come, even when your last hope is rope hung
From a ceilin blues are feelin you, you're just that lost
Screams of anguish oozin from your tubes, make the tap stop
That's what human beins can do when they're cast off
Get back on the wagon like the 12 steps are stacked blocks
If you topple continue your journey back to the top
The present moment is the first and the last stop
Blast off, frack rock
The metaphor's yours, drink the last drop
But don't rape nobody, don't hate nobody
Cause Earth, wind and fire will fuckin break your body
I'm not sayin god is judgin and full of wrath
God is peace, god is love, knows nothin of getting pissed off
I'm not even sayin there's a culprit and a victim
God is you, so the karma's already stuck in your system
Nothin a little GT85 won't remove
The secret is to keep the faith alive when you
Cruise, foundation is your rear wheel drive
Keep them gears real high, keep them fears in the light
Cause you might be surprised when they creep up behind you
Let me remind you, they can always find you
But if you meet them on their homegrown turf
They'll just die and fertilize the flowers growin from your earth
REPEAT CHORUS
Yeah I told you, keep your head high
Nothin to hold you back, no red lights
If you see em turn your colour wheel round
To the opposite side through the vibration of sound
Energy, transcending friends and enemies
We just be one breed of free serenity
We serve our shared body like legs on a centipede
Every man for every man, the death of demented greed
The devil on your shoulder tries to stick these
Bricks in your picture, just remove them like you pick fleas
With quick ease, walk away, sayin, bitch please
All paths lead to heaven, you can't trick me
I flow to the sea from the Liffey
Let go of the branches and I let the spirit lift me
Allow what is to be and whisper 'shit me'
As the layers of my destiny peel away like a striptease
And I drift with the breeze
My soul's been shaken, not stirred, I'd prefer it
The other way round, if you please, I be like double-0-3
Special secret agent but you never heard of me
If I was heard on TV, they'd probably murder me
That's alright cause death is life's only certainty
Bring it on, you fuckers can't be hurtin me
Your urgency fuels the one fire as it burns in me
REPEAT CHORUS
Hare krishna hare krishna
Krishna krishna hare hare
Hare rama hare rama
Rama rama hare hare...
