Lyrics Nahko And Medicine For The People – Nyepi
Text:
I see God in the darkest things
In the quiet of night I hear villages sing
«There’s a demon in that dragon purge it out.»
«There’s a demon in that dragon purge it out.»
In my second third world on a motorbike
I learned a waking prayer so I could sleep at night
Then I took my chances and realized many dreams
Yeah I took my chances and realized many dreams
Wild dogs tumbling along rice fields
And I said to Hanuman take away my shield
I am loud and reckless this is how I play
You are loud and reckless that’s no way to play
Oh I fear nothing, no thing fears me
Justice has different hats for different days
Release my anger, love thy neighbor
Put that pain to some good use anyway
I will do things I’ve never done before, cause I’m powerful and I’m not afraid no more, said I’m powerful and I’m not afraid no more
I feel God in the slightest of wind, at the rate I manifest every dream deepens and I know I never want to stay the same
Yeah I know I never want to stay the same
On a day of silence while the island slept, I cast my demons out at the feet of Ganesh and remove the obstacles bravely with grace
Said remove the obstacles bravely with grace
In a past life I cut the ropes and scalps, and in this life I mend the wounds I dealt, maybe by my hands or by my words alone
Maybe by my hands or by my words alone
I fear nothing, no thing fears me
Justice has different hats for different days
Please release my anger, love thy neighbor
Put that pain to some good use anyway
Teach me honor, must remember
Don’t be selfish with all your love anyway
I tilt my head back, howl like you said
In the end my body’s spirit anyway
I will do things I’ve never done before
Cause I’m powerful and I’m not afraid no more
Said I’m powerful and I’m not afraid no more
