funkadelic grassroots... one love

7.12.2005

sitting, smoking, watching the wisps of burnt scents travel and dissipate revealing the background beyond...
feeling high and feeling dead, my mouth is dry and my eyes are red, i saw visions of you, then you were gone...
theres a pipe in my hands and i dont know why, take a deep dragging pull but all i taste are charred ashes...
time to pull my hat over my dark glasses that cover my half closed gaze, look around with paranoid glances...
walking away from where i was before, i saw you again so i followed you into the furthest reaches of space...
planets and stars and galaxies flew past me, or rather, i was flying with no good reason but to give chase...
in the continuum of past and future colliding, i grabbed these locks of hair, medusas snakes smoking weed...
somehow through the thick odor of herbal concoctions, the present is the absolution of all my sins reprieved...
so i know that i am dreaming, you dont exist at all, this has to be a dream because i never knew how to fly...
and my voyage within my imagination is another dream, because its been forever long since last ive been high...
