Honestly
I done made some promises
I could not keep
Life filled with astonishment
Reconnaissance could not have seen
I played overconfident
My offense wasn’t offering
No one put me on
It’s like they going
Hey get off of me

Couldn’t act defensive
I’m defenseless
It’s ridiculous
Who knew that how my life would unfold
Would be meticulous
I thought bad was worse
But worse was good
It’s so ambiguous
This is from Allah
This is God
Are you hearing us

No I didn’t at the time
I was witness to my slime
Grime grime slime
Grime slime
Grime grime grime

Never doubtful
I just lied
God is always by my side
I come out
I’m stronger sharper wiser richer
All the time

All praises due
Every day I’m made new
I’m reminded that I’m part of you
In awe of my flaws
Teach me how to love me like you do

My life living proof
My life living truth
To trust you like i do
Find me in my darkest hours
Heal up all my wounds

That’s right
On a rainy day
I’m good My Yah
Come through like a umbrella
Any time I needed Him to take the wheel
We gettin’ there automatic no Tesla
I might get a lil scared ready to run
Still call on you for the courage to stay
Gave me the world the moon the sun the stars
A big heart and the will to get up today

Can I do a little dance with my praise
I can make it through life with my faith
Can i get an amen get a Ashe
Amen get a Ashe

All my stressings came with blessings
Wrapped in lessons got me feeling up
Every time I’m think I’m down
I end up climbing out that rut

For generations
Mankind has generated
Reneged
And re-gene-erated genes
Within the same regions
We are regenerations
Afraid to generate anew
Resume

Amazing
The dead steady raising
Keep appreciating stop appraising
Old ideas getting phased in
Happy for the day’s end
Now the light seems scary
Everybody stays in
Everybody praising worshipping the killers
And think that you the devil when you show them you a healer
Yet they claim to be a realist or the realest
Won’t get near us
They think we taking death away
But we are only givers
“Give us harsh criticisms cuz the decent ones the weakling ones”
Your confusing weakness for strength and you’re the “thinking ones”
Blank stare
They yell life’s not fair, but say that death is
All while acting like they really know, like a yes is
Bless his, heart
Is it art imitating life or life imitating art
Is it intimidating from the start or do you just start intimidating
So what you really see is your own energy emanating
I’m just ruminating

I can spot em
It’s the walking dead
Stuck in wonderland
He’s off with his head
I can spot em
It’s the walking dead
Stuck in wonderland
He’s off with his head
I can spot em
It’s the walking dead
Stuck in wonderland
He’s off with his head
I can spot em
It’s the walking dead
Stuck in wonderland
He’s off with his head

Life’s about respect
But we respect the dead
What
The living gets tricked
We treat the living dead
I mean we be saying like
Rest In Peace
But ain’t no blessing me
Unless I’m beyond what can be blessed
What a mess, yes indeed
Unless I’m the sick mess (achoo)
Then it’s God bless you, thank you
It’s like the only way to get some love
Is to perceive the painful
Level confusion again
Now the pain is pleasure, pleasure’s pain
No wonder I can’t get no peace
Because my thesis makes it all the same
And so we blame blame blame blame mane
And maintain maintain mane
And don’t forget we guilt we guilt we shame mane
Now the dead is all among us
Growing like fungus
The solution is to love the living
What a conundrum
I’m not saying to hate the dead
Just do life instead
You are what you do
Are you making a living or making a dead
And how do you feel when you doing it
It’s like you that you scared that you’ll ruin it
But listening to me clearly
Being scared is what ruins it

I can spot em
It’s the walking dead
Stuck in wonderland
He’s off with his head
I can spot em
It’s the walking dead
Stuck in wonderland
He’s off with his head
I can spot em
It’s the walking dead
Stuck in wonderland
He’s off with his head
I can spot em
It’s the walking dead
Stuck in wonderland
He’s off with his head

Yeah
Unh

Why you monkey for that money
What they tell you do
Are you working for your worth
And is that working for you
Before becoming indoctrinated
What was you gone do
Without comparing them to me
And me and them into you
Why you

Hol hol up holup holup holup holup
I don’t even think yall realize what I just said
I gotta bring this mug back so you can listen
Yeah

Why you monkey for that money
What they tell you do
Are you working for your worth
And is that working for you
Before becoming indoctrinated
What was you gone do
Without comparing them to me
And me and them into you

Why you play the victim
Acting like you wasn’t involved
Changing wants into needs
To praise money to God
Like you don’t know which is which
You the wizard of odd
I hope it click so you can heal
And finally end the facade
Ooh
Yeah

Real healing is total
You can’t be a one and a zero
That’s a 0 though
Oh no, yeah
I’m speaking in bits
But you can’t reach the peak
Cuz what you seeking is spilt
Yeah you can’t teach peace
And the value of pain
One cancels out the other
Having both is insane
I’m here to elevate your mind
Keep it simple and plane
So you should always have fun
Cuz it’s only a game
Yeah

Tell me what you want
Tell me what you want
Tell me what you want
Tell me what you want
Tell me what you want
Tell me what you want
Tell me what you want
We can make it happen

Tell me what you want
Tell me what you want
Tell me what you want
Tell me what you want
Tell me what you want
Tell me what you want
Tell me what you want
And we can make it happen

I really want to not to want
Because my wants are all ego
Based
Stunt amongst my peers with my mean ol
Face
Then live about in fear of what people
Take
Working all year just to be o
K
Just to be oh
Just to be oh
Just to be ok
Why behave just to be a slave
To an idea that we ain’t make
Call each other out like we ain’t safe
Is that what you would have
Never feeling whole cuz you think that you a half
Searching for a soul
Not in control of what you have
To fulfill the hole that you would hold
Just for a laugh
Haha ha ha
Jokes on you
Until you change the code
That’s what folks gone do
Give you want you want
But even that won’t do
You not special, you celestial
What’s the earthly to you
Ay

Tell me what you want
Tell me what you want
Tell me what you want
Tell me what you want
Tell me what you want
Tell me what you want
Tell me what you want
We can make it happen

Tell me what you want
Tell me what you want
Tell me what you want
Tell me what you want
Tell me what you want
Tell me what you want
Tell me what you want
And we can make it happen

Tell me what you want and I’m gone make sure that it happens
Never tell me what they say if they participate in cappin’
When you wake up everyday just know that it could be your last one
I ain’t trying to have you shook
Just trying to have you out there grabbing

Everything that you see up in your dreams
Let no haters intervene
Tunnel vision on the track til you a fiend
What I mean
Still waters never clean
But better than being trapped in a ravine
Oh you don’t
Really know what triggers for
To make you grow
If you wanna change, let JClay make you a mold
If you take a L, don’t fall down just let if flow
If you wanna build, let E – GO (let go, lehgo)
O into taking control, favor wherever we go
Made it from cereal bowls, straight into serial glow
Drippin’ all over my foes, spoiling all of my woes
Giving a grip to the poor, this is a different mode

It’s the kings of the spirit
We gonna cling to the feeling
Six rings let me hear it
When the team get up in it
We gonna fiend must admit it
We could never quit it
Gotta couple dreams we gone finish
Ain’t no time to get offended
Just get better just get ready
You talking to everybody from the temple to the tellie
Got the Tommy by the belly just in case they actin jelly
But I’m ready to repent
He say let’s do it homie…tell me

Man it all started when I was young
Growing up in Chicago
In the 80s
Man it was crazy

Yeah

Tell me why you stuck, in uniform
Ay, son of a god, you in puny form
No wonder you treat the world like it’s yo looney farm
Or looney bin cuz look silly in, your uniform
Tell me why you stuck, in uniform
Ay, son of a god, you in puny form
No wonder you treat the world like it’s a looney farm
Or looney bin cuz look silly in, your uniform
Ay ay ay

Who are you
No, who are you really
When you take your uniform off
Are you still in it
Or are you not finished
Why you home then
When you think that time means more
Than what won’t end (message)
Clothes ain’t the only thing you chose
Closed ain’t the only swing of doors
You close but you dozed off
Do you really think that you could catch on
When you thowed off
If you the one writing
Then how you getting wrote off

Tell me why you stuck, in uniform
Ay, son of a god, you in puny form
No wonder you treat the world like it’s a looney farm
Or looney bin cuz look silly in, your uniform
Tell me why you stuck, in uniform
Ay, son of a god, you in puny form
No wonder you treat the world like it’s a looney farm
Or looney bin cuz look silly in, your uniform
Ay ay ay

The egoic mind wants to mute me
Not playing saying that they want to shoot me
And I don’t think they talking bout a movie
Your performance doesn’t grab me or move me
That’s cuz you still blank thanking up in form
Quick to grab arms
Making your new norm
Just snoozes and alarms
But never quite waking
I done showed you a form of
Kindness, mine is patience
All with different faces
But from the same image
But you can’t see past your self imposed limits
So all you do is hate yourself selfs enclosed in it
So here you are diminished (diminished)

Tell me why you stuck, in uniform
Ay, son of a god, you in puny form
No wonder you treat the world like it’s a looney farm
Or looney bin cuz look silly in, your uniform
Tell me why you stuck, in uniform
Ay, son of a god, you in puny form
No wonder you treat the world like it’s a looney farm
Or looney bin cuz look silly in, your uniform
Hol up hol up hol up

I just want you to know
No matter what happens don’t judge it
So you can live in the flow
Abundant living no budget
No diminishment in your goals
No feeling embarrassed in public
Doesn’t matter if you hate it or love it
Always remember don’t judge it
I just want you to know
No matter what happens don’t judge it
So you can live in the flow
Abundant living no budget
No diminishment in your goals
No feeling embarrassed in public
Doesn’t matter if you hate it or love it
Always remember don’t judge it, yeah

So I learned growing up
Be a good judge of character
Never budge or they’ll think you weak
You represent black America
People are always judging me
So don’t do nothing terrible
And who gave them that authority
Well let me spit this parable
A painter paints a painting for a purpose
He called it good
But the painting became conscious
Judge the world, it thought it could
Now the painting perceives pain
Wrongness and hate
But how could it know what wrongness is
That’s not what the painter paints
Now the painting becomes miserable
Perceiving danger and dark
But this entire time
The painter marvels at its art
So the painting feels guilty
And tries to separate apart
From being extensions of the painter’s glory
Extensions of its god
Now, even is odd and odd is even
Suicide is on its mind, says this world he’s leaving
So he makes himself believe in
The death of himself
And yet and still the same painting is left ay

I just want you to know
No matter what happens don’t judge it
So you can live in the flow
Abundant living no budget
No diminishment in your goals
No feeling embarrassed in public
Doesn’t matter if you hate it or love it
Always remember don’t judge it yeah

So with memories wiped clean
The painting repeats the cycle
Of judging, division, and seeing others as psychos
And finally the light goes, on
If he never had judged
He could only see a world of art and love
So he forgave all of his mis-judgements
And over himself he hovered
And noticed it’s the same world
Yet of a different color
And he started to see each other
As one in the same
The most beautifullest gallery
That a painter could ever paint
So now the painting teaches
Other paintings all the time
Which is like teaching others suns
That they’re supposed to shine
Which is obvious in hind
Yet to ourself we seem blind
You are the painting, you are the sun
You are the shrine ay
Carry yourself accordingly
See the same within your peers
What you are to them, they are to you
Mere mirrors
Besides you are full of great
So naturally you’re grateful
Of all the love you could ever love
That’s what you’re made for

I just want you to know
No matter what happens don’t judge it
So you can live in the flow
Abundant living no budget
No diminishment in your goals
No feeling embarrassed in public
Doesn’t matter if you hate it or love it
Always remember don’t judge it
I just want you to know

Doesn’t matter if you hate it or love it
Always remember don’t judge it

Are you ready for ascension
Are you ready for ascension
Are you ready for ascension
Are you ready for ascension
Are you ready to just float away
Are you ready for ascension

Are you ready for ascension (yes)
Are you ready for ascension (I am)
Are you ready to just float away (ay)
Are you ready for ascension

We are too involved in the fall
We are too evolved to evolve
We need not dissolve what is small
But absolve cuz it all has been solved
And we all have been stalled
Go up if you lower
Roll up in the flow and blow up
Grow if you a grower
Succeed if you a sower
No constrictions like a boa
No restrictions that you know of
The past is washed away
You would know if you a knower
Asking is the lack that you’ve asked for
Seekers always seeking
Keeping secrets
What you mad for
You the rascal that made the lock
And said what the key be
That’s how you knew what to search for
And what the fee be
We be, only trippin on our trippin
No real ill ever willed or existed
We can let it go in an instant
Tell me that you ready
Are you ready for ascension

Are you ready for ascension
Are you ready for ascension
Are you ready for ascension
Are you ready to just float away
Are you ready for ascension
Are you ready for ascension
Are you ready to just float away
Are you ready for ascension

We are not sinners
We’re just not centered
Heirs to the throne
We are air swimmers
We are re-entered into each individual
Which is indivisible
Makes ends invisible
There’s only beginnings
There’s only the winning
It’s never lights out
But there’s only the dimming
So there’s only the willingness
To feeling blessed
And giving best
Thus healing less
Cuz you’re already there, yeah, here
Be aware, flare, do declare, share
Become mayor of your lair
Peel yo layers, what’s in there
There’s an air about air
Yeah
Now verse it
Nurse it
Rehearse it
Make ya habit at it mo perfect
Make it automatic immerse it
Take away the erratic and static disturbing it
Now it’s permanent

Are you ready for ascension
Are you ready for ascension
Are you ready to just float away
Are you ready for ascension
Are you ready for ascension
Are you ready to just float away
Are you ready for ascension

Yes I’m ready, cuz I’m very, legendary
Ain’t no scary
Mmm mmm Mary had a lamb
But Jelani had a merry, good time
Ay, temporary lay offs
Naw it’s vacation
Invitation to the pay off
What you waiting for
This that prayer you’ve been impatient for
Making presentations, grace is wasted
What you hating for
There’s enough, uh, to only focus on what you love
Man, duh don’t be dumb
Missing where you’ve come just to rep rep where you from, from
Where you from
Inside
But you out tired, fed up, mouth wide
Red truck, he fire, make em jump to they fly
Make your luck
Create your why
Liven up
Don’t die
Tell me

Are you ready for ascension
Are you ready for ascension
Are you ready for ascension
Are you ready to just float away
Are you ready for ascension
Are you ready for ascension
Are you ready to just float away
Are you ready for ascension

Are you ready for ascension
Are you ready for ascension
Are you ready to just float away
Oooh
Oooh
Oooh
Oooh

Tell ’em

Lived there
Did that
I knew I had to skip
Ain’t no dip backs
Tell em disregard me
Up on dispatch
It’s like this mystery
Met his mismatch
But all this time timing
Had it’s purpose
It’s time to bring mo light, am I a serpent
Or a servant, I am so observant
Can you really see, since it’s only just the surface

He who helps first gets the upper hand
When you stand under you understand
Keep you head bowed, watch yo head get crowned
Under God never means under man
All of our earth is the motherland
Yall just like to separate
Click back up blaming the other man
Never showing grace like you ain’t never ate
Probably seeing me as enemy
Because I see no one as such
And I will never fuel hateful energy
Especially when you can love just as much
One will die out on its own
The other will remain just as shown
You can pledge your allegiance toward death and defeated
Or join me immediately home

Why be where you ain’t
Why see what you can’t
Why ask why me
Why be wallowing in in self pity and hate
Why be in angst
Checking them banks
Only when it’s full there’s no stressing just thanks
Only a fool puts blessings in blanks
Can I be frank
Naw yall ain’t ready
You think this too heavy
Just leave it to

Lani Man
Yeah
Lani Man
He’s Lani Man
I am
Lani Man
Ay ay ay ay

Living here
Doin’ this
I don’t care for loss
So there’s no losing this
You’re free to fight for limits
While I’m choosing bliss
I am one of one
So I’m improving this
There’s always a limit when you approaching zero
But the games already won
Stop tryna be its hero
Well be it then
Let me see it then
We all know who you s’posed to be
Stop being Bens
Like I been this
And I been that
And I been been been
I just been back

From now on no references
To your past presences
I am the messenger
And these are your messages
Check ’em
And make em your preferences, breakfasts
Emphasis on the breakfasts
It’s yo daily bread or your daily coffee
Or yo daily prayer or daily offering
To turn on what’s off again
Don’t find yourself lost again
Find yo self
Which is not yo self at all
Mind yo self
When you true self tries to call
Which is never seizing
Which is never ending
I am many of many interventions
Inner vision to begin ascension
Look or listen lose your inhibitions
Focus on missions not on what is missing
Lani Man’s just the ignition
Forgiveness is key
Travel the distance that only you see
Making the difference that only you keep
When you need that reminder
Just listen to me
He’s

Lani Man
Lani Man
He’s Lani Man
Lani Man
He’s

If I healed you in the way you wanted
The cause would remain
So the effects’ll keep coming
But uh

You ain’t sick
You ain’t dying
You ain’t this
You just ain’t trying
You ain’t sick
You ain’t dying
You ain’t this
You just ain’t trying

I bet you got a slob sob story don’t you
Telling everybody bout it cuz you’ll think they’ll want you
Pushing them away so you can say they disappoint you
Thinking that a life of pain will somehow anoint you
What you doing, huh
Do you enjoy this
Would you avoid this
When you stop replacing your voice with these noises
The choices you make they moisten
Making it joyous pressing your buttons like joysticks
Tell me
Why you think these dreams worth dreaming, ay
Why you think these schemes worth scheming
If it can’t defeat your demons
Why you think these streams worth streaming, ay
Why you think these screams heard screaming
In your shout it out costume
Trying to be listened to
But silence speaks volumes
Try to be a witness to
The piece of your peace cuz you’re needed in this symphony
I’ll always give you praise, but shall never give you sympathy
Because uh

If I healed you in the way you wanted
The cause would remain
So the effects’ll keep coming, cuz
If I healed you in the way you wanted
The cause would remain
So the effects’ll keep coming
But uh

You ain’t sick
You ain’t dying
You ain’t this
You just ain’t trying
You ain’t sick (live)
You ain’t dying (I say live)
You ain’t this (unh)
You just ain’t trying

How long you gone sit & sulk
You alive, get woke
You’re supposed to nurse the cause
Not doctor the results
The thang is you associate pain with transformation
Claim yo emancipation patient proclamation, yeah
The mind controls the body
But you control your mind
So why let anybody, uh
Control you any time, yeah
And that’s including yours
Of this manner you are lord, unh
Listening to what isn’t
While the truth just gets ignored, yeah
Thinking what a cruel God
Making people sick
But this yo only job
To show and represent
You can’t truly believe in love when you embody sin
Cuz sin means without life, not what you think it meant
Lay down your judgment swords
Take off yo love block armor
And realize what’s yours
As we rise in your honor
As we rise like we in heaven
No truth a lie can threaten
Unless you believe the lie
And say you learned the less-in

If I healed you in the way you wanted
The cause would remain
So the effects’ll keep coming, cuz
If I healed you in the way you wanted
The cause would remain
So the effects’ll keep coming
But uh

You ain’t sick
You ain’t dying
You ain’t this
You just ain’t trying
You ain’t sick (live)
You ain’t dying (I say live)
You ain’t this (unh)
You just ain’t trying

Rise
You are well
