The Rishiraj


All my life I've been 
 
Stuck in a state of
 
Absolute deconstruction
 
To resolve myself.
 
Back in the valli,
 
Back from a crypt of stone
 
Where did the time go?
 
Oh how my seeds have grown
 
Mama I’m comin’ home
 
I am the no one man
 
Son of an ancient plan
 
This is all I’ve ever known
 
You can be the rollin’ stone
 
Easy come & easy go
 
When you're no one on our hill
 
Looking in from their above
 
Watching ants fight for crumbs
 
Thinking if they'd think as One
 
Who thought of all as themselves
 
no one could want for any else.
