Beastie Boys - Namaste lyrics

As I feel this reality gently fade away

Riding on a thought to see where it's from

Gliding through a memory of a time yet to come

Smoke paints the air swirling images through my mind

Like a whirlpool spin beginning to unwind

And I stand at the edge cautiously awaiting

As time slips by carefully navigating

By the stars in the sky and I sit and I think to myself

And on the horizon the sun light begins to climb

And it seems like it's been so long since he shined

But I'm sure it was only yesterday

A cold chill of fear cut through me

I felt my heart contract to my mind

I brought the image of light and I expanded out of it

My fear was just a shadow and then a voice spoke in my head

And she said

Dark is not the opposite of light

It's the absence of light

And I thought to myself she knows what she's talking about

And for a moment I knew what it was all about
