Tezeta, tezeta
Remember, remember
Tezeta, tezeta
If I've been insane
My whole life well now I've changed
Into something that sees
Shape shifting ceiling
My mental projection is pink
Come here, girl
Who are you?
I am true perspective
Tezeta, tezeta
Tezeta, tezeta
Nostalgia, nostalgia
Tezeta, tezeta
Everything that lives and dies
Is a hologram
Nothing is as real as that
Come here, boy
Are you God?
I am that which I am
Do you remember now?
What? (Yes, I do)
This, my altered plan
Tezeta is a song by King Gizzard The Lizard Wizard Mild High Club. The lyrics are short and concise, with a repeating pattern of "Tezeta, tezeta" and "Remember, remember". The song is about change and perspective. The first verse says "If I've been insane / My whole life well now I've changed / Into something that sees / I love the feeling / Shape shifting ceiling / My mental projection is pink", which suggests that the singer has undergone a transformation and is now able to see things in a different way.
Later, the lyrics take on a more mystical tone, with the repeated questioning and answering of "Come here, girl / Who are you? / I am true perspective" and "Come here, boy / Are you God? / I am that which I am". These lines suggest that the singer has attained some sort of higher consciousness or spiritual understanding. The song ends with the line "Do you remember now? / What? (Yes, I do) / This, my altered plan", which implies that the transformation that the singer has undergone was intentional, and that they now have a new plan for their life.
Overall, Tezeta seems to be a meditation on change and transformation, both personal and spiritual. The repetition of the title and the simple yet effective lyrics create a dreamy and hypnotic atmosphere, which fits well with the song's mystical themes.
