Real Magic

When great forces are on the move in the world

We learn we are spirits, not animals

He said, there's something going on in time and space

And beyond time and space

Which, whether we like it or not, spells duty

You and I have a rendezvous with destiny

We will preserve for our children

This the last best hope of man on earth

Or we will sentence them to take the first step

Into a thousand years of darkness

Sometimes I don't know what to say

It's a genuine miracle I woke up today, so I got up to pray

But my bbm was pinging when my android started singing then

I missed all of the glory for technological luxuries

And just like that I forgot all of the trees

And the flowers and the breeze carryin' seeds across the seas

Extra honey in my tea but pay no to homage to the bee

Whatever happened to us and

Will we ever let the magic come and tap into us?

We preach apocalypse written by john the revelator

But won't even speak to a stranger ridin' on the elevator

Or step to the side when we standin' still on the escalator

The planet earth is a hospital, we on the respirator

I don't regret the haters

Sometimes that's what you need to see yourself

Break through and free yourself

Accept your own and be yourself, it's magic

The story of life is too tragic, it's magic

This is the turn, they ain't ready for prestige yet

The flow is too collegiate, the show is too prestigious

Pretty like a flower, refreshin' like a shower

Depression makes me sour, but it's still a feelin'

My humor harden, all my senses say, it's still appealin'

I could be dead and gone, a brass band

The second line, I could be headed home

The passers by me, shed a tear after she read the stone

It's a luxury

The story of life is not tragic, it's magic

Sometimes that's what you need to see yourself

Break through and free yourself

Accept your own and be yourself, it's magic

The story of life is not tragic, it's a luxury
