[Chorus]
Imagine the burning embers
They glow below and above
Your sins you won’t remember
And all you’ll find there is love

[Natti] [Verse 1]
I’m cloaked in smoke, but feel no flames
Folks float around me, but I see no wings
No halos or hounds, pitchforks or gates
Or omnipotent voice that picks course of fate
Did a life of indecision build a dream scape prison
Where light isn’t manufactured, but captured inside a prism?
In a state between sleep and awake
Feels closest to hypnosis with an infinite wake
Then a fog dissipates revealing crimson fields
Crept on by a fawn with flaming heels
Eyes red as stop signs with a mane of quills
As I gaze past hills of diamond trees
I see a silhouette rest upon golden leaves
With the body of a goddess and a face of dreams
A half naked Meagan Good in a Pagan hood
Kissed me on the cheek we didn’t speak, but I understood
It wasn’t Heaven that I was seeking, but a haven I sought
A canvas of the mind painted with my thoughts

[Chorus]
Imagine the burning embers
They glow below and above
Your sins you won’t remember
And all you’ll find there is love

[Kno] [Verse 2]
Everything ain't what it seems
I wake up to find I'm inside of a dream this side of a dream
See buried deep inside the seams of my screams
Are beings and other-worldly things rarely seen
Might be psychosis or maybe i chose this
The night approaches every time the eye closes
See a burning bush, feel like I'm Moses
Burn so much Kush I feel like Amosis
All my images are morgues and moons
And every fork in the road moves through Freud and Jung
In the darkness no orchard blooms
A state so dark sparks from torches consumed
It's like I live in a fortress of doom
In the forest where the blood pours with force from my wounds
My body aches with this labotamy a part of me shakes
Open my eyes and awake

[Outro]
Ashes are burning brightly
The smoke can be seen from afar
So now you’re seeing how far
Ashes are burning the way
