Lyrics

Verse 1

They try to map it, define it, trap it in a cage of words

But vocabulary fails for the voice that is never heard

It's not your brain, it's not your thoughts, it's not the clothes you wear

It's the silent background presence that is always there

You cannot touch it, cannot view it through a telescope

It is the space holding your fear, your trauma, and your hope

It's before the I, before the me, before your very name

The one observing every player in this earthly game

They look for God up in the sky or in a sacred book

But miss the ultimate reality from where they look

It's not a thing you can acquire, not a thing you lose

It is the movie screen itself, not just the scene you choose

Chorus

Consciousness cannot be explained, it's too deep

The waking state, the dream, the silent space when you sleep

That pure awareness is you, it's the spark in the crowd

It's everyone, it's everything, a sky with no cloud

It is the ultimate nothing, the void where it starts

The stillness in the center of our beating hearts

Total peace, absolute rest

No more questions, no more test

Verse 2

Take a breath, let the concepts just dissolve away

Who are you when you got absolutely nought to say

Before the ego steps in with a grand design

There is a borderless, timeless, and immortal sign

It's in the sinner, in the saint, it's in the rich and poor

The same identical essence looking through the door

You are the ocean my friend, not just a single wave

You are the freedom that the mind is trying to enslave

So drop the seeking, drop the chasing, let the hunger cease

In this emptiness you realize you are the peace

No past to fix, no future that you need to build

Just pure existence, completely and forever filled

Chorus

Consciousness cannot be explained, it's too deep

The waking state, the dream, the silent space when you sleep

That pure awareness is you, it's the spark in the crowd

It's everyone, it's everything, a sky with no cloud

It is the ultimate nothing, the void where it starts

The stillness in the center of our beating hearts

Total peace, absolute rest

No more questions, no more test

Outro

Be

No explanation needed

That's you

That's everyone

The great nothing

Absolute rest

Peace
