| I meditated at home alone in an introspective zone |
| When my conscious mind takes on a deep reflective tone |
| As I laid afraid and replayed mistakes that I’ve made |
| Depression covered me with his dark shade and cut like a blade |
| Should I seek advice from somebody that knows me the most? |
| Just as I asked a familiar figure slowly approached |
| I don’t believe in paranormal beings or all-seeing ghosts |
| But everything he told me and everything he showed me was close |
| I didn’t understand his motives or his purpose with me |
| My assessment was he could be 22 or 23 |
| As my visual started burgeoning and emerging I see |
| That this person indeed was just a younger version of me |
| He said he had words that were of the most urgent degree |
| Apologized for things that he had caused to occur mentally |
| He knew decisions that he had made led to my discouragement, G |
| Said at the time he couldn’t see where all of the turbulence be |
| Said history never produced a more deserving MC |
| That had received less and had packed a greater burden than me |
| «If I could merge ya knowledge now with ya fire from '93 |
| Just imagine how dangerous and disturbing it might be» |
| He showed me bad moments in my life that could’ve been nice |
| Times I would’ve won, but I went left when I should’ve went right |
| But once you done it, well it’s over, that’s a permanent rule |
| Problems I could’ve missed had I made an alternative move |
| He reminded me well that I sat on a throne with a veil |
| Now I’m lonely as hell, broken down and only a shell |
| Of my former self and that’s something I hated to say |
| Just when I asked if I could make it right, he faded away |
| Three levels of my existence will clash |
| When my present meets my future and my past |
| How long will my rationale last? |
| When my present meets my future and my past |
| Man, what just happened to me? |
| I must’ve blacked out or something man |
| I feel like, I feel like I’m in another dimension man |
| What’s really going on? |
| The psychological effects of pain I failed to withstand |
| To recover from it, the average man seldomly can |
| Someone tell me the plan, I looked and saw an elderly man |
| And he began to place me under a deep spell with his hand |
| I couldn’t believe that he was contrived to deceive me in lie |
| He was feeble and shy and much older than the previous guy |
| I relaxed like I was high, relief I was breathing aside |
| He said that he would speak and that I would have no need to reply |
| He told me of things that I was yearning in my past was a tree of learning |
| Said my future wasn’t planned and that nothing was predetermined |
| Said don’t focus on rejection and personal imperfections |
| Showed me sections of my life I should take in different directions |
| I couldn’t see his face at all, only a silhouette flaming |
| Said there would be no deal in explaining until I became him |
| What you see in front of you is the same form I remain in |
| It’s up to you to add to the frame of what you’ll be gaining |
| If you devote your ethereal hope and spiritual growth |
| Look in the mirror close and apply, not just hear what I spoke |
| Don’t think current obstacles last, there’s no impossible task |
| You could profit with cash, the future has optional paths |
| I can’t reveal every dimension, I’m just showing you some |
| I warn you now about the pitfalls so you’ll know when they come |
| First start your divorce, weak hearted thoughts of remorse |
| I can’t divulge too much, there’s a chance you’ll alter the course |
| This warning is sound, right now you got thorns in your crown |
| But I’m a image of potential reform, born to astound |
| I see you speculating blatantly, no need to mistake me |
| Yeah, I’m you 20 years from now, but what will you make me? |
| Three levels of my existence will clash |
| When my present meets my future and my past |
| How long will my rationale last |
| When my present meets my future and my past? |
