[02:23.15]We shine like that travels and waves that are unbelievable
[02:26.62]Distance and days
[02:28.44]Radio micro infrared and ultraviolet
[02:31.06]Picture so beautiful I had to film the pilot
[02:33.57]Coined a new grand of philosophy
[02:35.78]That form images in your mind
[02:37.63]Quite different from photography
[02:39.45]Anointed few a point of view of the thinkers
[02:41.72]No pitch that's a glitch full of hook lines
[02:44.07]And sinkers
[02:44.72]The way the wise look at light
[02:46.12]The manner of the thoughtful
[02:47.59]There is no benefit if it's not resourceful
[02:50.19]Four to five the observers
[02:51.76]They get something from it
[02:53.20]It become routine been there and done it
[02:56.08]I'm in a place where perception is developed
[02:58.28]If you can't walk on these shoes
[02:59.79]Then your feet would swell up
[03:01.19]A medium by which thoughts are made clear
[03:03.61]Beneath the surface
[03:04.74]But only hurting the inner ear
