Текст песни Archaic Revival - Spacetime Continuum

Alright.
Tonight
For your edification and amusement
Three raves,
Two interregnums.

Rap one: The archaic revival
History is ending
Because the dominator culture
Has led the human species
Into a blind alley,
And as the inevitable
Chaostrophie approaches,
People look for
Metaphors and answers.
Every time a culture gets into trouble
It casts itself back into the past
Looking for the last sane moment it ever knew.
And the last sane moment we ever knew
Was on the plains of Africa
15, 000 years ago
Rocked in the cradle of
The Great Horned Mushroom Goddess before history,
Before standing armies, before slavery and property,
Before warfare and phonetic alphabets and monotheism, before, before, before.
And this is where the future is taking us
Because the secret faith of the twentieth century
Is not modernism, the secret faith of the twentieth century
Is nostalgia for the archaic, nostalgia for the paleolithic,
And that gives us body piercing,
Abstract expressionism,
Surrealism, jazz, rock-n-roll and catastrophe theory.
The 20th century mind
Is nostalgic for the paradise
That once existed on the mushroom dotted plains of Africa where
The plant-human symbiosis occurred
That pulled us out of the animal body
And into the tool-using,
Culture-making,
Imagination-exploring
Creature that we are.
And why does this matter?
It matters because it shows
That the way out is back
And that the future
Is a forward escape into the past.
This is what the psychedelic experience means.
Its a doorway out of history
And into the wiring under the board in eternity.
And I tell you this
Because if the community understands
What it is that holds it together
The community will be better able to streamline itself for flight into hyperspace
Because what we need is a new myth,
What we need is a new true story
That tells us where we′re going in the universe
And that true story is
That the ego is a product of pathology,
And that when psilocybin is regularly part of the human experience
The ego is supressed
And the supression of the ego means the defeat of the dominators,
The materialists,
The product peddlers.
Psychedelics return us to the inner worth of the self,
To the importance of the feeling of immediate experience
And nobody can sell that to you
And nobody can buy it from you,
So the dominator culture is not interested
In the felt presence of immediate experience,
But that's what holds the community together.
And as we break out of the silly myths of science,
And the infantile obsessions of the marketplace
What we discover through the psychedelic experience is
That in the body,
IN THE BODY,
There are Niagras of beauty, alien beauty, alien dimensions
That are part of the self
The richest part of life.
I think of going to the grave without having a psychedelic experience
Like going to the grave without ever having sex.
It means that you never figured out what it is all about.
The mystery is in the body
And the way the body works itself into nature.
What the Archaic Revival means is shamanism,
Ecstacy,
Orgiastic sexuality,
And the defeat of the three enemies of the people.
And the three enemies of the people are hegemony,
Monogamy
And monotony!
And if you get them on the run you have the dominators sweating folks,
Because that means that your getting it all reconnected,
And getting it all reconnected means putting aside the idea of
Separateness and self-definition through thing-fetish. Getting it all connected means tapping into the Gaian mind,
And the Gaian mind is what we′re calling the psychedelic experience.
Its an experience of the living fact of the entelechy of the planet.
And without that experience we wander in a desert of bogus ideologies.
But with that experience the compass of the self can be set,
And that's the idea;
Figuring out how to reset the compass of the self through community,
Through ecstatic dance,
Through psychedelics, sexuality, intelligence,
INTELLIGENCE.
This is what we have to have to make the forward escape into hyperspace.
