Coming of Age Written & Produced by iNFLiKT Intro (Rob Bell) In the beginning was a point; A single point of infinite density Containing all the compressed mass space/time of the universe And it's been expanding for the past 13.8 billion years Verse 1 (It's been a long time coming) From a tadpole in pond scum Through this evolution of my soul - I'm on one The song sung by creation marvelous symphonic In ecstatic motion God has been incarnate 13.8 billion years I'm gazing in amazement that still I'm here All the glory that fills the air I'm awe struck And to think that we came from star dust Chorus (It's been a long time coming) Now this is my coming of age Ain't no turning back or running away (It's been a long time coming) It's humanity's coming of age We can't be turning back or running away (A change gon come) Or I'll be discarded left overs So I gotta take the step forward (A change gone come) Or we'll be discarded left overs So we gotta take the step forward (It's time to come up!) Bridge (Eckhart Tolle) If the structures of the human mind remain unchanged, We will always end up recreating Fundamentally the same world, the same evil, the same dysfunction This results in a total unawareness of my connectedness with the whole Humanity is now faced with a stark choice: evolve or die Verse 2 Cuz nothin' is promised to us Now or never we gotta get on and move up Time for us to enter in our destined fate What's next to face other than the step to take In front of us? The future summons us - heed the call We can stall and sputter out and be free to fall Or we can open our eyes up and awaken And choose to rise to the occasion Chorus (It's been a long time coming) Now this is my coming of age Ain't no turning back or running away (It's been a long time coming) It's humanity's coming of age We can't be turning back or running away (A change gon come) Or I'll be discarded left overs So I gotta take the step forward (A change gon come) Or we'll be discarded left overs So we gotta take the step forward (It's time to come up!) Bridge 2 (Eckhart Tolle) This is humanity's challenge now Verse 3/Bridge I hope these words are raisin' us to stand up Stop lookin' to the sky and prayin' for an answer Cuz ain't nobody sendin' 'em down Ain't no magical formula gon descend from the clouds We've been endowed with the power to change How have we been allowed to just cower in shame?! So I'm here to show and teach us How that perilous demeanor is so beneath us Recognize our potential and exercise our ability Or we can subside to the side and just die in futility But as for me I know that I am better Than to ignore the wisdom taught by our ancestors We can get up to move and step in a new direction It's up to you to get in the game and choose a weapon At this point stagnation is practically suicide Your actions will tell me what you decide Chorus (It's been a long time coming) Now this is my coming of age Ain't no turning back or running away (It's been a long time coming) It's humanity's coming of age We can't be turning back or running away (A change gon come) Or I'll be discarded left overs So I gotta take the step forward (A change gone come) Or we'll be discarded left overs So we gotta take the step forward (It's time to come up!)

Intro (iNFLiKT) For when we're full of bitter despair Lord, hear our prayer For when we have little to spare Lord, hear our prayer For when our hearts' riddled with cares Lord, hear our prayer For all our uncivil affairs Hear our prayer Verse 1 (P.A.T.H.) God, listen – this is my last chance at livin' The stakes have risen, it's time to make some decisions My addiction's like a war of attrition And it's winnin' cuz I'm still in this piss-poor position I'm on a mission to fix my livin' conditions I can't envision my kids visitin' me in the prison I'm havin' premonitions of a head-on collision I think the clock's about to stop tickin', I'm not kiddin' I'm not profittin' a lot from spittin' on the cops When they stop me for shop liftin' or not Typically that shit just pisses 'em off Would've thought? I was fittin' the description they've got I can't take the heat, God! The kitchen is hot!

Tickin' you off with a wicked kick in the crotch How is this indicative to frickin' hittin' the charts?! Bridge Hey, God! Why'd ya make my life so hard?! How the hell do you expect me to hold a job?! You know they'll just reject me and close the door! Ever convicted of a crime? I've broken all the laws! C'mon now – time waits for no man That's why I gotta get it goin' with this whole plan I'm movin' too slow with this whole song and dance Song and dance... Chorus God, give me strength! (4x) Listen God! (2x) (Goddamn it then show me the light!) Verse 3 Okay listen, God – when are you liftin' the fog? I know you're sick of all this bitchin' but I'm sick as a dog I think I've been a victim of fraud I got robbed for my innocence and thought I was hard A lost cause – little snot with long draws Got too large for my britches kept on rippin' them off They stopped fittin' – I was not quittin' or forfeitin' My mission to break laws cuz I was awe-stricken With the life, I'm shocked I was not locked in prison To rot, the way I fought the system and got caught slippin' I got charged, but I dodged my convictions Cuz I'm slicker than these law dogs sniffin' With their suspicions – nah, your Honor, listen – I'm not snitchin' I'm a lot different than these sweet heart bitches (fuck ya'll!) I walk different, I talk different, I even grab my crotch different (P.A.T.H. & iNFLiKT!) God, we ain't the same

Verse 1 Guess the only one that I can look to is myself No one was by my side when I would try to cry help Pourin' out a bucket of tears until my eyes swelled Left me completely deserted suffering through a dry spell People told me "look to the sky!" but then the sky fell - fuck that If I ain't gonna do it for my own sake then why else? Time for me to pack up my bags and move on I been stuck in the same place for too long Back to the drawing board to put together plan B I don't give a fuck if nobody understands me Too many lukewarm friends wanna be family Quit all the whinin' and complainin' now my man please I ain't got no more time for you bitch ass pansies I don't wanna get along I'd rather you left and gone can't we Just agree or is this gonna be up to me? Get the fuck outta my face you fuckin' dweeb Chorus 1 I came to bring the pain hardcore from the brain This is my existential angst I came to bring the pain hardcore from the brain This is my existential angst I came to bring the pain hardcore from the brain That's why iNFLiKT's the name (listen, pussy!)

Chorus 2 Another day, another headache - tryina survive Carrying dead weight I wake up early and get to bed late Tryina snatch some crumbs when the bread brake And I'll be on this lonely road long as my legs take Verse 2 'Til I don't got no calves or no shine bones Even if I can barely limp home Blood, sweat and tears through the hell, fire and brim stone Even if I gotta do it like Jim Jones Chorus 2 Another day, another headache - tryina survive Carrying dead weight I wake up early and get to bed late Tryina snatch some crumbs when the bread brake And I'll be on this lonely road long as my legs take Verse 3 Trudgin' on - ignorin' the bullshit I stay above it calm only because I'm strong Firm and still no one's undermining my determined will Burn you lil' worms until ya urn is filled (Murder kill!) every thang in sight My fangs were white til they got blood stained from bites A heinous sight but that's just the pain of life settin' in Pesterin' 'til my head'll spin but never give in I'll forever win! Verse 4 (P.A.T.H.) I've been festerin' - letting the medicines take precedence Evicted from my residence Detectives pesterin', allegin' that I went in the tenements But they never had a shred of evidence - they're not intelligent I'm fed up with generic embellishments Said I'm a felon man, the rest is irrelevant Tell my man Cain not to worry I just dropped a twenty On his commissary and I'ma keep it coming, buddy! Chorus 2 Another day, another headache - tryina survive Carrying dead weight I wake up early and get to bed late Tryina snatch some crumbs when the bread brake And I'll be on this lonely road long as my legs take Verse 5 The pain'll last 'til my ankle snaps I'll carry on The suffering has me stronger than Barry Bonds You pussies pout and fuss bunch of powder puffs Just want ya mouth to shut before I have to pound ya guts, bitch! Bridge 2 (P.A.T.H.) (You 'bout to what?!) I'm 'bout to make ya feel my pain Cuz I'ma hit ya with the real shit I'm sick of the games (You 'bout to what?!) We 'bout to make them feel our pain Cuz we gon hit 'em with the ugliness we feel no shame (You 'bout to what?!) I'm 'bout to make ya feel my pain Cuz I'ma hit ya with the real shit I'm sick of the games (You 'bout to what?!) We 'bout to make them feel our pain (You 'bout to what?!) We 'bout to make them feel our pain Chorus 3 (Bring it on!) I won't take no prisoners if you in my way Or prepare to be terrorized! (Bring it on!) Anybody who want it'll be M.I.A. Believe it, bitch! I don't ever lie! (2x) Verse 6 (P.A.T.H.) Dead in the middle of living silly the kid had an epiphany That literally just quit the sinning in me Something spinning in me - 180, if you will Which benefits my vision which consists of getting real Yes I've tipped the scaled, fit the bill, flipped the shit well You didn't figure the kid was this big of a deal Admit it, he has skill! I tipped the Richter scale when I slipped and fell Hit the wishing well when I was fishing And pissed that my mission failed Outro You 'bout to what?! You ain't got the slightest clue what we been through! What?! We just tryina survive! Another day, another headache!

Chorus One What did your face look like before you were born? What did your face look like before you were born? What did your face look like before you were born? What did your face look like before you were born? Before you were brought here; before you were told why Before you had bought fear; before you were sold lies What did your face look like before you were born? Verse One I see your defense mask up You fall on ya face then bend backwards How long will you pretend as a Oscar Award winning top ten actor? You went faster up to ascend the ladder Of success only to regret wchu spent after (You fell asleep!) American dreamin' and been taxed up (Awaken!) Now do you see what my lense captures? A zen master once gave me a koan Without any explanation then told me "go on" "You've been given just what you needed, now so long" The glory of the sun is contained in a single photon Bridge One When you get stripped away from what you're attached to And everything ricochets then lemme ask you -- Chorus One What did your face look like before you were born? What did your face look like before you were born? Before you were brought here; before you were told why Before you had bought fear; before you were sold lies What did your face look like before you were born? Breakdown (Richard Rohr) Before you made any money, before you got your law degree, before you were a doctor, before you were a priest - who were you? That's the true self. Chorus Two Ya legs movin'? Ya lungs breathin'? Ya hands feelin'? Ya heart beatin'? Ya ears hearin'? Ya eyes seein'? Thank God! You're alive! Hallelujah! Verse Two The very fact of your existence is simply astoundin' I'm swimmin' in wonder somebody pinch me I'm drownin' An ocean of bliss every square inch we are found in It's even sorta sexual kinky arousin' A beautiful relationship fluid in motion This sweet blasphemy is the truest devotion This love is green as the grass and blue as the ocean It's a dynamic process always movin' and coastin' (This is beyond) metaphysical speculation The only concern is here and now - the breath you take in (This is beyond) apocalyptic conjecture Forget your experts that search with their lectures for the best words I swear it's true but what is there to compare it to? It's like inspiration wants to have an affair with you It's like jumping out of a plane without a parachute It's like doing the single thing you'd never dare to do Bridge Two 100 percent mind, 100 percent body, 100 percent soul - indivisible (2x) Chorus Two Ya legs movin'? Ya lungs breathin'? Ya hands feelin'? Ya heart beatin'? Ya ears hearin'? Ya eyes seein'? Thank God! You're alive! Hallelujah! Outro (Richard Rohr) Then we come to the Gospel, where Jesus goes right to the heart of the matter, and he says, "the single grain of wheat" -- the single grain of wheat that each person is -- it "has to die to itself." To many of you, I'm sure that sounds very Buddhist; that the small self can't get you very far, and Jesus calls the small self "the single grain of wheat." And he's saying unless that single grain of wheat dies, it remains just a grain of wheat. That something that has to die is your false self. Brothers and sisters, that's what's gonna die when you die, and if that's all you have, you've got nothing -- that's the false self.

Verse 1 Reinvigorated in a new fashion I vow to be singular to my true passion And since my crew's laggin' gon move passed 'em Gotta stay fluid like the breast stroke Can't be gettin' stuck like my neck broke Ever since I took a breath of this fresh hope Every cell of my body is exuberant Ain't nothin' to defend or prove to them My view has been adjusted to a newer lens Life is a stained glass that I see through As soon as my consciousness is renewed Everything I believe true will bleed through Chorus I'm reborn! Made anew! Given hope! Overjoyed! Vivified! I'm reborn! Verse 2 Vitality rushing to the brim it's burstin' Welling up directly from this inner working That's the only reason for this grin I'm smirkin' A sinner searching becomes an enlightened saint The darkest canvas exhibits the brightest paint So there's not a trouble I wouldn't like to thank From the heights I sank into a brutal lie And in that abyss I found the truth inside You only resurrect after ya crucified You must die if you wanna be reborn Nobody can tell us we weren't pre-warned Now this is the way I choose to lead on Chorus I'm reborn! Made anew! Given hope! Overjoyed! Vivified! I'm reborn! Verse 3 Remainin' steadfast rise above the fray Stand in the face of turmoil and suffer brave There couldn't possibly be another way Anything given out had to be took freely Don't worry if you feel like a crook greedy Only few can make hard work look easy The Kingdom of Heaven is taken with force Don't be shocked if ya suddenly facein' a sword The only place you'll find that's safe is the morgue Some haven abroad is a nefarious tale Success is only found right where we'll fail True life is only found in this air we inhale Chorus I'm reborn! Made anew! Given hope! Overjoyed! Vivified! I'm reborn! Bridge/Outro This is the peace which surpasses all understanding Stripped me naked, took everything, left me abandoned But if I never received it, how would I manage? This is the peace which surpasses all understanding Stripped me naked, took everything, left me abandoned But if I never received it, how could I manage?

Intro [Part 1] (Jiddu Krishnamurti) Is there one thing that will end my seeking? If there is, what am I to do? What do you seek? You have read, you have walked, you have hurt, You have cried, you have meditated, you have longed, You have sacrificed – then what is the one thing That will end all this? First of all, don't seek, because if you seek, you will find What you will find is what you have already sought What you will find in your search is what you have projected That, projected in the future, you will find Therefore, a wise man doesn't seek Intro [Part 2] (Eckhart Tolle Reading Rumi's Poem) There is a force within that give you life – seek that In your body, there lies a priceless jewel – seek that If you're in search of the greatest treasure, Don't look outside, look within, and seek that Chorus (iNFLiKT) What do you seek? Being right, or understanding? Being heard, or hearing? Being loved, or loving? If you seek the one, you will not find the other If you seek the other, you will find them both (2x) Verse 1 (P.A.T.H.) Lost in the sands of time, wish I was on my grind It's prime time I stopped strugglin', guzzlin' wine I'm done thuggin', buggin', and muggin' guys Clubbin' some of 'em for money in front of my kids' mothers' eyes No gun, I run up and sucker 'em from the side Then I run and hide – son I've done it in rougher times I was numb, being run by my other mind Tryina victimize someone dumb enough to come and take a ride Sometimes I wonder why my cousin died A young butterfly – I suffered when I seen her mother cry Cuz I was brazenly just testin' my fate Antagonizing God's patience staring death in the face Like “please get me!” I don't know how I evaded major tragedies I imagine he had to be mad at me But God will never make sense in our reality Sarah, I'll catch you in the next galaxy Chorus (iNFLiKT) What do you seek? Being right, or understanding? Being heard, or hearing? Being loved, or loving? If you seek the one, you will not find the other If you seek the other, you will find them both (2x) Verse 2 (Facial) What do you seek? When time flies by And you're feelin' so weak spendin' ya time gettin' high Feel my pain, as we all go through the struggle This shit is insane, survivin', stayin' out of trouble Livin' real humble cuz life ain't meant to love you Fightin' with them knuckles now they show you how the gun do Learnin' the hustle, that knife is meant to cut you So you better watch yourself and survive in the jungle (Watch!) Shit is real out here, so I show no fear It's been sixteen years, I still shed those tears For my grandmother in heaven – I'll see you when I go there Just hit thirty, still feels like I ain't goin' nowhere So by all means, nigga if it's necessary That's why my heart stays colder than February So by all means, nigga if it's necessary You can live today, but tomorrow end up in a cemetery Chorus (iNFLiKT) What do you seek? Being right, or understanding? Being heard, or hearing? Being loved, or loving? If you seek the one, you will not find the other If you seek the other, you will find them both (2x) Bridge What do you seek? “I have lived an illusion; I have deceived myself!” What do you seek? “You understand? You have come to the end of your tether!” What do you seek? “Touching the essence, the transcendent dimension” What do you seek? “What do you seek?” Chorus What do you seek? Being right, or understanding? Being heard, or hearing? Being loved, or loving? If you seek the one, you will not find the other If you seek the other, you will find them both (4x)
