Lyrics
Normal Guy by C. Abrokwah Thaahum
Copywrite 2003
CHORUS
I wish I could go back to a normal life,
Followed all the rules-had no insight.
Why did I have to try, why did I have to pry?
I just like to be a normal guy.
VERSE 1
Curiosity killed the cat,
Then incarnated in me to get me back,
And on this home it let me probe, and go dig deep to the unknown.
Discern philosophy from the fact.
Incarcerated but I unlocked that.
So far gone my mind did roam,
Shocked the shit out of me all I was shown.
I?m like Morpheus they caught in the Matrix.
Too blind, dumb, stubborn or scarred to face it.
Tunneled ass vision thinking is gated.
While I think mainstream thinking is gay shit.
The rest of humanity so hopeless,
On day to day life I start to lose focus.
I got overloaded on new things I notice.
Tried to shut the door, and FUCK I can?t close it!!
VERSE 2
I gave myself a mental ass beating,
Went from 5%, Nuwaubian, to Hyperspace teachings.
Now I have an over activated Kundalini,
And see all of them just as well as they see me.
Everything I take in becomes a part of me,
Into my structure, like a shadow follows me.
And any chick that I touch goes insane,
Can?t even call a chick no more jus? to get some brains.
Last one swallowed something that her DNA didn?t agree with,
Now she calls me asks, ?Chris why the fuck do I see shit?!?
I got Spiritually Transmittable Diseases,
I warned you, but it was me you just had to be with.
Now every day you think you?re haunted by demons,
You feel other peoples thoughts leaving you screaming.
Makes me wish sometimes I never got unplugged,
Was blind as hell, but now I?m just fucked.
VERSE 3
It feels good sometimes to get a peak through the door,
And understand life it?s not Greek anymore.
But lonely ?cause all the things you see,
Ain?t vibrating on this frequency.
I got a problem with entities following,
Telling me things others wouldn?t get ?cause their in.
Mindless beliefs, blind to the feast
That they eat keeps them winded and cheap.
No relationship when we don?t relate to shit,
Try to come up and niggas start to hate and shit,
Want to talk but I don?t know what to say and shit,
Will I cause fits, make people walk away and shit?
To be around folks, I got to mummify myself,
You know, turn down the convo and dummify myself,
When I tone down, that just nullifies the wealth,
I reflect on times I wish I hung all by myself!!!
?Normal Guy Narrations?
PRE Chorus:
?Learning of the Source through different teachers can be such an uplifting experience. But sometimes the weight of the knowledge and responsibility of carrying it makes you wish it would go back from where is came . . .but you can?t because it is the same place from where you came . . .?
Before Verse 2:
?It?s as if I?ve fallen from grace twice; once as an angel, and then again as a human. Please pardon the ways of my forgetfulness. Learning of my greatness once again, I try to balance this ?rediscovered? power that has always been inside me.?
Before Verse 3
?Oh what fools these mortals be! I was once a fool too. But how can you tell the difference when the whole class wears a dunce cap? I choose to remove mine, and face the consequences. Ignorance is bliss, pain, joy, and frustration all at the same time . . .and yet so is knowledge.?
End of Song
?Our souls are as water-dropping from the Source-falling, descending, landing-forgetting our origin. No matter what we go through on our journey, we are reminded of our original being and place. And like water we eventually seek to evaporate back to our original home in the clouds.?
