​​​Verse

I can’t help it when you
I can’t help it when I zone away
There’s some things I want to tell the Universe
About the way that I move
Envoke the Het Heru
Envoke the Het Heru
Envoke in me and you
Beauty Love and Peace
This is what I need
Envoke that energy
Love it Love it Eternally, ahhhhhh!

 

Chorus

Come into your fullness so that we can grow to the heavens (fill the vibration under)
Come into your fullness so that we can grow to the heavens
I fly, soar with the eagles in the sky
I come from Sirius, we rise……we rise….(time and place for everything)

 

​Verse 2

I can’t help it when I zone away
There’s some things I want to tell the Universe
About the way that I move
Through a meditation so deep
Accomplishing everything we need
We’re taking it to the 10th level, 100th level
And that’s the way the story goes, always keeping it with a flow, and that’s the way I like to know

 

Chorus (repeated)

Come into your fullness so that we can grow to the heavens (fill the vibration under)
Come into your fullness so that we can grow to the heavens
I fly, soar with the eagles in the sky
I come from Sirius, we rise……we rise….(time and place for everything)

Come into your fullness so that we can grow to the heavens (fill the vibration under)
Come into your fullness so that we can grow to the heavens
I fly, soar with the eagles in the sky
I come from Sirius, we rise……we rise….(time and place for everything)

Come into your fullness so that we can grow to the heavens
I fly…..

​

Outro
Envoke me and you, Queen Mother
The mistress of the womb, the mistress of the light, the lady of intoxication always feeling alright
Joy Peace Love Jewels, Everything I want it
Joy Peace Love You this is how I need it

We Rise……..
We Rise….
We Rise with Ra, Ra is the only way
WE Rise with Ra, Ra is the only way

Come into your fullness so that we can grow to the heavens,
I fly, soar with the eagles in the sky
I come from Sirius, we rise……..we rise……..

Divine Love (Bonus Track)

Lyrics/Melody of Lyrics/Vocals: Nu LEGACY

 

Verse I

Strolling along wondering to myself,

Who could my destiny bring.

I've had the money the cars all the material wealth, but...those things don't impress me.

I've waiting alone took time to figure me out and,

Love is what reflection brings.

Free as the bird took flight to reach my dreams and, the world will keep turning and.

 

Chorus

Life will keep bringing me ups and downs but, I won't frown because,

Your Love will be so refreshing, no second guessing, it will be true.

Divine Love.

 

Tick tock, now time was passing but it did not phase me.

Cris cross, and I probably passed you but its so amazing, 

How we would meet when the time was right, no need for rushing we just take our time.

And when I think about all this love the God has lifted,

The way you fill my heart, my mind and Yes my Spirit. 

I am so grateful, give thanks and praise for this sacred union its you I'm choosing...

 

Chorus

 

Bridge

Bring me Joy (ohhhh, the kind of Joy that only comes from the Most High)

Give me Peace (Peace, Peace over flowing)

Shower me with Love, Love (Love uncondition not based on what I give to you)

Show me Truth (Truth, Truth, I want to see it with my eyes)

(Repeat)

 

Truth of Divine Love. Truth.of.Divine....Love.

The Incredible Talk (I Talk)

Trumpet/Engineering: Edwin Jackson​​

Lyrics/Melody of Lyrics/Vocals: Nu LEGACY


Verse 1
We 9 to 5'in
Grindin' they call survivin'
I've got this question for you...

From Pre-K to college
They fed me knowledge
I've got this question for you…

Tell me when did we come to
This all blue position
Life was a mission
Not competition

Gave you my heart
And you made an incision
Guess I'll have to make a decision

 

Chrous
We gon' be Free (ridin' through the night)
We gon' be Free (with the north star so bright)
We gon' be Free (if it takes all my might)
We gon' be Free (victory's in sight)

​

Verse 2
Situations we facin’
Thinkin’ time is wastin’
Runnin’ out of patience
Tell me where are we goin’

Have unhealthy relations
Fall into temptation
Synthetic creation
While our girls are growin'

If we don’t make the change today
Then they’ll make all the same mistakes
And I gots to know it gots to show
We must reflect our glow
So let's go be FREE
(ridin’ through the night)

​

Chorus
 

Bridge
Rain droppin’ but we keep them thangs goin’
Rain droppin’ but we keep them thangs flowin’
Rain droppin’ but we keep them thangs rollin’

Ohhhhhhhh……………..

​​

I TALK Verse
There’s only One Eye perceivin’ on this bus stop freezin’
Genocide feeds their family, mine starve for no reason
JAH JAH Sees it all through our eyes
And notice all the honest lies
My demise occurred once I rose against their enterprise
I stay inside, preparin’ for the global struggle
All for self.
When there’s no religious gate to lean against
I'll know myself.
Perfected aim, spread disease
Language too they think the same
Woke up on the wrong side of the bed
Just to pray I strain
Went through John Kennedy’s cabbage, exit Abraham
Lincoln’s mind was scrambled with sausage
I toast the state exam, That’s gansta
Clap for clowns that run the nation
Stare at me strange.
Second graders spit they hate their self
Animation, Nerve gas, Shape shiftin’, Heads of state
The true path
While I blast disillusioned thinkin’ today’s  a new past
You're not alone we came from the planet mars
Mars to Ethiopia
To triangle architecture
Aligned with stars, The longest arms
Tricks way up the sleves includes the strongest bombs
Mind control capsules that are placed inside suburban ponds
You try, while I fry, Holy sacramental lie
Poke the eye on top of the pyramid in its sinful eye.

​

Verse 3
They told me to stay away from
Red Black and Green
They told me that value's not in man, but machine
And way back in the day when I was young they said "Dream!"
And when I followed up they counteracted with schemes
Is this dream that I live an illusion?
Find it hard to fight off the confusion
Don't want this lie, No!
Don't want no more desire
I Seek The Higher Power
From this inner city tower
(ridin' through the night)

​

Dr. Kwame Nkrumah (speaks out)
(1960 address to UN)
"For years and years Africa has been the footstool of colonialism and imperialism, exploitation and degradation; and it calls
out for the freedom of Africa. Africa wants her freedom. Africa must be free. It is a simple call. It is also a signal – light in a
red warning for those who intend to ignore it!"

Heaven At The Feet of Your Mother
