Gil Scott-Heron - Anothersunrise lyrics

(Verse 1 - Dom McLennon) 430, trying to get rest Taking a couple hits to relieve a bit of the stress All the anxiety coming from the society I reside in has caused me to sacrifice my sobriety But I'm livin, who am I kiddin Depression used to have me sadistic and angst ridden But I'm better now, yeah I'm feeling better now Finding new mental soil, breaking better ground An hour past and yet I can't find sleep Guess its reminiscent of how I've been trying to find peace And, it's been a peice since if really felt low Cause the journey to unlocking my mind's a positive road You think I was a fiend for enlightenment In all reality I'm waiting for when light hits My window pane, I'm sitting in the frame Picturing what I will say, during Anothersunrise (Hook - Gil Scott Heron) And when the morning comes If there's been no rest for you We've been friends long enough You should know what to do (Verse 2 - Dom McLennon) My mind races when other people are sleeping About the promises everyone isn't keeping But I learned to be alone Through the night before the light I try to get into my zone But the days call, I wanna be a poet And have my soul glow the way the sun does; potent Now I'm sitting stoic, tryna meditate Better than whatever the sheets in my bed would make I start to envision a new world Where reality and astral projections are just a swirl And I'm hurled to a place, a whole new space Where I create reality but everything is fake I start to open up my eyelids On this flight of life I'm now feeling like I'm the pilot With a route to the heavens, my journey has only begun Taking every red-eye just so I can see another sunrise (Hook & Outro - Gil Scott Heron) And in the afternoon If things are still the same Come and join me on my cloud Now you must wonder in the evening How everything got so turned around?
