Let the music show you the way, be your guide and protector.
Let the music fill your head, infect your mind like a mentor.
Let the music take you back, connect you with your ancestors.
Let the music free your soul, and help you find your way back to the center.
The woman that I Love
told me that Music’s the most accessible drug.
With every note that gets plucked,
and every chord that gets struck,
it strikes a chord within the listener’s heartstrings.
Yes, yes.
It makes the Soul sing,
“Shucks!”
I’d still be stuck
in the same old rut
if the Music hadn’t have come along
with a fret board for me to grab on.
I climbed up that spined neck,
grasping to tie up every connection
between my body and my head.
Open up my wind section
for a breath,
and a moment of reflection.
Let the music show you the way, be your guide and protector.
Let the music fill your head, infect your mind like a mentor.
Let the music take you back, connect you with your ancestors.
Let the music free your soul, and help you find your way back to the center.
Because Music
is just a series of vibrations,
and us Humans
are just a series of vibrations.
So, You,
you can be as vibrant as you want to be,
and I‘ll eat up your energy
like a chemical dependency;
and leave you with a healthy dose of vitamin B,
and you can feed that to the next three people that you meet.
Yes, it’s easy.
This is how we harmonize in unity.
Check it out.
We’re building a Community.
Oh, that’s right.
So leave your negativity
at Home because we’ve built up an immunity.
To what ever ails you,
let the Music be your Healer.
If you’re a drunk or a junky, Momma,
let me be your Funk Dealer.
