In Bloom

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Shaggy 2 Dope] We in bloom, many thoughts rearranging Pollen's everywhere, that's the reason that we're changing Flourish in the rise and the new times Taking lives, nobody survives You got your hatchet, throw it in the sky Five petals appear right before your eyes Don't get attached to your head like a neck 'Cause I'll disconnect, Dark Lotus in effect [Verse 2: Blaze Ya Dead Homie] Rise out the water [for the first worst?] nightmare Lotus petals bloom and take shapes off in the night air [Here we got the wicked to spare?] and didn't nobody care Until they see the shadow creeping, now they all scared Gone but not forgotten, in the dark they leave us rotting With the crosses on our face that's the symbol of the downtrodden The Dark Lotus return, the reason is the word The season for the shepherd is now to lead the herd [Chorus] This is the returning Everything you tried to bury In between the patch of roses Makes the Lotus (Rise), Lotus (Rise) Winds of deadly ages Makes the blood drip down the pages And between the dying roses Makes the Lotus (Rise), Lotus (Rise) Lotus rise [Verse 3: Violent J] Flourishing underneath the rays of the moon The winds of change about the rains that bloom The five disciples of the Lotus Cross Rise up from the swamp seed, weed, and moss The time has come, our return is evident Straight outta Hell's hole or Heaven-sent We in bloom, the haunting of the flower Throw your DL's high and feel power [Verse 4: Monoxide] Metamorphosis for most change I survive in the dark with no rain Chemical imbalance embedded inside of my brain And all I can think of is how they continue to strain I'm a descendant of passed-on's, hoping to latch on And pollinate anything with a mask on A black rose is the sign of your death When the sight of the Lotus brings death to the rest [Chorus] This is the returning Everything you tried to bury In between the patch of roses Makes the Lotus (Rise), Lotus (Rise) Winds of deadly ages Makes the blood drip down the pages And between the dying roses Makes the Lotus (Rise), Lotus (Rise) Lotus rise [Bridge] Lotus rise (Deserts are freezing, so we know that it's time) Lotus rise (The hills are burning, so we know that it's time) Lotus rise (The water's rising, so we know that it's time) Lotus rise (The crops are dying, so we know that it's time) Lotus rise [Verse 5: Jamie Madrox] Coming up through the ground like a corpse But I'm not a corpse, of course, I'm a Lotus in full bloom Petals made up of [botics?] that shoot through the dirt To regenerate in sunlight and flourish to bring doom Upon the suspected affection it grows slow In the depths of stagnant water down below Somewhere where the lights don't shine at all We await in a watery tomb for them to call [Chorus] This is the returning Everything you tried to bury In between the patch of roses Makes the Lotus (Rise), Lotus (Rise) Winds of deadly ages Makes the blood drip down the pages And between the dying roses Makes the Lotus (Rise), Lotus (Rise) Lotus rise [Outro] (Ooh, ooh) Lotus rise (Ooh, ooh) (Hey, hey) Lotus rise (Hey, hey)
