[Chorus: Thundercat]
Now my heart is free
Staring back at me
Future's past I see
Light shines from the tree
Now my heart is free
Staring back at me
Future's past I see
Light shines from the tree

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus: Thundercat]
Now my heart is free
Staring back at me
Future's past I see
Light shines from the tree

[Verse 1: Taj Austin]
No man can run from impending doom
Pays to raise his son for many moons
But that gotta raise my vibration
Might raise my voice outta frustration
Tryna raise this financial situation
'Cause I'm plagued with the same problems I was raised in
This that raise some concerns for your birth
Let's erase all concerns that the sun rays burn on the earth
Huh, and we not fast for solutions
I can breathe the air, but the air breeds pollution
Mind's getting snared by institutions
And if not, then they get impaired by fusion
And if not, then it's both, lost hope for improvement
That's why the Coast can coast through the movement
That's why when you ask why, I won't be fretty
When I look in your eyes and see the light, I feel heavy
But you'll never notice 'cause I'll never show it
Plus, you'll be too busy dissectin' the motives
Of the world around you, tryna balance your focus
Anything can become your everything in the moment
Every moment for me brings me closer to eternity
And you might think that that's closer to uncertainty
Perfect you, that's a perfect me
In a perfect world that could never be
I recognize you're the future (Future)
[Refrain: Thundercat]
Light shines from the tree

[Verse 2: Ras Austin]
Heaven's in the kid, Hell don't exist
Inhale, exhale for the male, female, themself to exist
Mind your tongue for what's to come, death knell fell through your lips
Beat life with a health benefit and whoever else benefit
The youth, they soak our vibes up
Our frequency must rise up, rebuke the chemicals and ditch the products
Teach 'em what's natural, how n***a naps could wake the god up
Teach 'em the Afrocentric lens of this life that's upon us
Not just vices and charmer, give advice from the prices of karma
Deeds and action, laws and righteous rights and honors
They on us since the schoolyard, drillin' the crew hard
Indoctrinated who most hated, I'll break it to y'all
The only way to predict the future is to create it
And school's designed to rob our children of imagination
They're snuffin' generations, future after future
Slow our innovations, that's how you trap your future
That's how you trap when it come to rap or how you react to future
Social engineerin', these ain't words for fearin'
You holdin' court with the wise, this a positive hearin'
To aid us on our journey, it's universal law
And we got power of attorney, so ain't no need to worry
And ain't no need to hurry
Our family trees plant money trees, the flow seeds are buried
Enemies and adversaries follow greed to cemeteries
But won't receive a cherry, the fruits of our labor stem from our purpose
We the emblem of perfect, we ain't descend from no curses
And yes, I have read Deuteronomy, but
Due to the rhymes in me, I got knowledge in infinite verses, and so
[Refrain: Ras Austin]
Heaven's in the kid, Hell don't exist
Inhale, exhale for the male, female, themself to exist
Mind your tongue for what's to come, death knell fell through your lips
Beat life with a health benefit or whoever else benefit
Your higher self will emit

[Chorus: Thundercat]
Now my heart is free
Staring back at me
Future's past I see
Light shines from the tree
Now my heart is free
Staring back at me
Future's past I see
Light shines from the tree
