Imma tell it to them like this
I just shook hands with the origins of time
Said the problems of the world began inside our minds
The universe is perfect by benevolent design
You could check the raindrops on flowers to remind you
That means that the devil and that god are both inside you
Unified in harmony disrupted to divide you
Trying to find balance in the challenge to survive
While you compensate for other humans flaws that deprived you
From sitting in the sun and witness heaven's right beside you
Realize your blessings as the universe unwinds you
Tested by the ignorance of those who crucified truth
Paraphrased reality and caged you in a mind-loop
Somewhere between my news feed and a day job
I recognize the devil lived inside a man like Adolf
Since the time of pharaohs human beings have often played god
Our souls return to earth like roses laid upon a graveyard
I felt closer to the source of wisdom on the playground
And learned more from strangers
Reading faces on the greyhound
They designed science that made humans into projects
Defined progress through triangles n conquest
Committed crimes against the same ones they labeled monsters
Its hard for me to feel your argument without context
People built mountains out of metal glass and nonsense
But waves could wash mountains
Into sands of god's conscious
Star, stardust, even though
You belong, with us
Star, stardust, even though
You belong, with us
I know the man who we elected isn't really in charge
Why we only help our own? while out there millions starve
I watched a good man lose it all now lives in his car
Just for a high seen him pawning off that Gibson guitar
Yeah his family use to love him now they drifting apart
I don't think no junkee ever meant to get in this far
Underneath he still smile though he visually scarred
It's easy to get addicted
It's the quitting that's hard
Past few years been tough still I give my regards
We got the same fears, though we pray to different gods
I could reach a higher power just by scribbling bars
Same reason we built pyramids to get to the stars
Hold the applause, wait until the room goes dark
My little cousin she said "don't forget to do your part"
Like, baby girl how are you so smart?
You barely could talk but still you could move my heart
It goes
One life to live sunlight ain't here to harm you
Faith is embracing the faces of those who want you
You could gravitate to the hate but dog that's on you
Or choose to lean on God in spite of everything you've gone through
Star, stardust, even though
You belong, with us
Afternoons, evening mornings on my knees and forehead
Seeking fortress from evil forces some people orbit
So much sauce you could season oceans
I sprinkle ash from a phoenix floating high over the beak of Horus
If you fail to see importance
The GOD n performance like Nike endorsing the feet of Jordan
You realize that's like Ray Charles singing in Georgia
King of vanilla folders Manila could thrilla foreman
That's why I quit my job and started dreaming enormous
More Venus when I planet more love than Serena organs
The world is a mirror with Mia Moore
A freeman with more game than Freeman Morgan
Being backwards leaning towards thinking forward
Even on the wing of vultures eating pork decomposing
Married to the game after three divorces
Now this the part where Egypt cultured me and Moses
So don't believe in anything like white Jesus portraits
Star, stardust, even though
You belong, with us
Star, stardust, even though
You belong, with us, stardust
