Time and Space
MF Grimm Lyrics

Angel thought he was better than man
The angel believed he was superior to humans.

So God shook him up and changed his plan
As punishment, God intervened and altered the angel's intended course.

Broke his wing. No longer could he soar
God damaged the angel's wings, causing him to lose his ability to fly.

Jumped off of cloud and...he fell to
Without the ability to fly, the angel plummeted towards the ground.

Floor, thinking God took him to war
Having fallen from the sky, the angel believed he was sent to a battlefield.

Not in heaven, 'cause the views he saw
The afterlife he encountered was a far cry from the paradise he envisioned.

Hell indeed, burning at the core of
The angel found himself in a fiery pit deep within the earth.

Earth. Focus...escape this hell through
He set his sights on escaping this inferno.

Birth. Pure vibration teleport to womb
He believed he could transport himself to a new life through reincarnation.

Human form...born in June
He was reborn as a human, born in the month of June.

As a man...hunger...pain consumed
He experienced the hardships of human life such as hunger and pain.

Spanked on the ass, starts to cry
He was born into an era where spanking newborns was acceptable and cried from the pain.

Welcome to life, you was born to die
Life is momentary, and all human beings are ultimately mortal.

Learn lessons through suffering
Painful experiences are essential to acquiring wisdom.

Progress...from struggling
Overcoming hardship allows for progress and growth.

Years to adjust to the vehicle he's in
It takes time to adapt to the human body.

Come across humans, get feelings for them
As he encountered more humans, he developed feelings for them.

Different needs from each and the things they do
Every human possesses unique requirements and motivations.

They are stressed. It affects him too
The stress of others can have an impact on oneself.

Temperature drops and the...world feels so
When the temperature drops, the world can feel empty and lonely.

Cold. Tired start feeling his soul
As he grew more exhausted, his spirit began to feel drained.

So many died, felt the pain it caused
As he witnessed the numerous deaths, the effects of grief lingered.

In 3D. Holograms get stuck on pause
In the physical realm, it is impossible to pause reality as in a projected image.

Human life is I. Forgive him God.
In the end, human life is one's own, and remorse may arise for one's mistakes.

As Ibliys cried wishing he could fly again
Ibliys, the fallen angel, lamented his loss of flight.

He could not remember why again
He could not recall his reasons for seeking superiority over humans.

It was so important for him to better then all men
He believed that striving to be better than humans was critical.

Better was a bitter sin
He recognized that the pursuit of superiority over others was a regretful mistake.

Being humble was the medicine
Humility was the remedy for redemption and healing.

The elixir to fix his broken wing
Humility can assist in repairing the injury inflicted upon the wings of a fallen angel.

Oh how he missed how the angels would sing
He longed for the heavenly atmosphere he used to know.

Touched clouds in the sky again
By regaining his wings and ability to fly, he touched the clouds once more.

Heaven once again
He was once more back in heaven.

He heard a voice that said to try again
A voice urged him to make another attempt to get back into heaven.

First you must learn man, Ibliys
Before returning to heaven, he must first study and acquire an understanding of humans.

Then flap your wings through time and space
By using his wings, he can travel through both distance and time.

Fly to me...all creations, all gifts
He was instructed to go to the source of all existence.

Transform to light and...uplift
By transforming himself into light, he could uplift himself and others.

Yourself. First learn man, Ibliys
He must learn about humanity before undertaking the journey back to heaven.

Uplift yourself
The ultimate goal is to raise oneself up and achieve transcendence.
