Im sure i have put up the lyrics to this song before...
SA describes it as his first out of body experiance (when not high-i think)

-but despite the weirdness of the verses I think the song as a whole says something really nice, about the form of things being less important than we give them credit for. Life is continuous despite the setbacks, the stress, the strange events, the negativity associated with the world, and even things like war and death (though sad, and worth paying attention to) can be seen in the greater patterns as a part of the cycle. part of the continuous life. One of the interesting things I think is that seeing yourself as a part of a system that is much larger doesnt necessarily take away your responsibility -in fact it makes it central to where you are, if you are the current incarnation of the worlds hopes then shouldnt you do all that you can, to not only further your own personal spritit but as many others as well? It removes a need perhaps for personal accomplishment to know that you are easily replaced, one of many, but as long as you are doing something with what you have-there is certainly no harm in being active. a solid movement of people seeking something better, through inner and outer works, thoughts, expression.

When things are outta whack
And they might collapse
And at the end of the day
You still can't relax
And physically you ache
Like a cavity feelin' the bind
On your mind and the rest
Of your body

Listen to your heartbeat
Flow and imagine
Become Jackson Pollack
Air brush Chinese dragons
On a sky blue convertion
Van or an electra
Buick of the mind
full ofFuminous matter
And slowly all the pressure Recedes
and you stop to decay
Naturally think clearly
Ultimately though
your grace Will give way
to traffic jams
Submachine guns in hand
City red-necks who think
Like the Omega man
Feelin' the extremes
Of the times we're livin'
Stockpile spaghetti-o's And cheerios
plannin'To survive that fall-out shit

It's not ambuguous
It be continuous
It's all about us
It's for real my man [2x]
The continuous life there is no end
Movin' through life
Movin' through death

My radio emits a signal form
A loud noise the kind of which
I've never heard before
I scan the dial for more
stations But all I get
is an eerie feelin'
I'm not dreamin' this is the real dealin'
There's nothin' like this trance
I'm caught in a daze
Cuz I'm finally out of my body
The blue lights are ablaze
Yeah I'm really amazed
And feelin' so light that's right
Lift off and I'm into the sky
As if a hologram were created
To shift
my conciousness
Changed again and I'm flung
In the rift
I wanna be free
I wanna do right
I move through the portal
To be purified

It's not ambuguous
It be continuous
It's all about us
It's for real my man [3x]
The continuous life there is no end
Movin' through life
Movin' through death
