Awakening
The X Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Every night before I sleep I think about you
Your the first thing on my mind
When I wake up in the morning light
You are my life
To awake in a dream state
I'm bedazzled by natural beauty
The arrangement of light in a physical form
I believe that an angel seduced me
Sweet whispers (Take off your clothes)
The laws of attraction
I'm showing my positive thoughts through my actions
Magnetic force on the planet
Where are your clothes, did they vanish?
Witness this moment of magic
I know your feeling the flames
Isn't it strange?
We entered the astral plane
So don't be afraid
Just know that you're coming of age
The art in the frame
Where nothing but passion is gained
Transport the blood in your vein
Straight to you brain
It's your time to dance in the rain
But will you remember my name?
Every night before I sleep I think about you
Your the first thing on my mind
When I wake up in the morning light
You are my life
I'm smiling
A smile is a small sign of how you make my life worthwhile
Only one through the turnstile
We're cursed now
Fully immersed, drowned
Emotions paraded around town
The cipher on the timeline
The tropic of Cancer is your sign
My proof that the World is all mine
And Seven is our joy and pride
Knowledge and Wisdom borns Understanding
Deep in the Earth grew the seed which I planted
I'm showing the advances
The third eye, the sight of the masters
A sense we shall harness
A Sun is a star in this vast Universe
In this physical body which is filled full of energy
Where I hide my identity
And they really want to know but it's part of the mystery
The Royal Secret
Divine love is surely yours
When you wake up to the light
There is no such thing as a beginning and ending
A sacred lesson that's beyond comprehension
The preservation of innovation
The revelation in elevation
Reciprocation, the art of changing
And patiently waiting for the chambers of Haven
Divine emulation
The realm of creation
The feeling of vibrations
It's amazing to be divinely awakened
I admit I miss giving those succulent lips a kiss
This is the catalyst
What kind of thoughts to wish
The works of the Alchemist
To imagine what passion is
Call me a philanthropist
With selflessness with deeper analogies
It's the way I'm defeating all challengers
Without having to read from the manuscript
Hallucinations and the dreams are my fantasies




Divine love is surely yours
When you wake up to the light
