about

Peace and Love Universality!

Solocypher lives by an old hip hop code based on peace, love and having fun.

Since learning Meditation techniques from a cassette tape pack he listened to while driving around and trying not to crash his Vauxhall Agila car after a failed business venture selling second hand books, Solo has held a profound respect for the wisdom traditions. Although baptised and confirmed in the tradition of Roman Catholocism, his interest in the gnostic and esoteric teachings of Christ led him to explore the wider religious teachings and philosophies of various cultures and masters. When he found this track and started writing, the call to meditation was strangely appealing for such a lively joint; inspired verses followed and he excitedly called up the big homie Chima Anya to get it recorded and expertly mixed down ready to share with the world. In the early stages Solocypher got his then 8 month old son, Xzavier, involved in the demo process and his vocals are now proudly shown off at the start of the mix. Enjoy!

lyrics

Yo who got the freedom to do this?everybody!
we can all be buddhist still ya body
only once yo who got the freedom to do this?
everybody! we can all be buddhist still ya body

Transcendentalism
blessings from the oldest
wisdom chauffeur driven
Isaac looking through a prism
no sacrifice needed if your willing
to sit and listen
albert got a compass as a toy
obsessed with magnetism
magnum opus i wrote this dope shit
lotus position
petals fall in line with rhythm
romantic old poet
with an inner vision
drinking old moet and a rich red from lisbon
get exactly what ive given
pure love in cyces no need for rifles
standing army is your vital
own demon and
really is your only rival
if we can speak to jin
and show how we live in cycle with
voices .....voices of compassion
we can transcend more than survive and keep smashin
in the hive mind with our bros and sisis getting lifted
we all gifted its been scripted ……..

Yo who got the freedom to do this?everybody!
we can all be buddhist still ya body
only once yo who got the freedom to do this?
everybody! we can all be buddhist still ya body

Until we shuffle
off this mortal coil
the greatest secret of all time is
we all royal and we don't need any more oil
Glad to be a Gladiator fist full of soil
yo from my bed i think of bedouins
this is not where the legend ends
we can feast with the elohims
chapel celestine
evergreen thoughts
shining light with a mega beam torch
search for the source then release these vocalswords
verbal darts pierce hearts
energy of wu
this for the children indeed say it true
don't believe in our leaders or the boys in blue
more resolve.more peace more us, more glue
no fuss make moves
chess options are infinite
quell the inner critic
master p level limitless
uggggggghhhhh
you know we had to do this
doctor dre
meditate like a buddhist

yo who got the freedom to do this?everybody!
we can all be buddhist still ya body


Shine light bright warms coldest Conditions
long line love
leavin Lineage of wisdom
Look into the palm of your hand
see what is given
In these lifelines
What we doing with a life time
Wanna be true to the self so
We write rhymes
Right books always come
At the right time
Right hand reacts, redact, left side rewinds time
Vortex
Land of New quarks
Why be cautious
Money is all deed so flow gorgeous
Sitting under the tree of life
And also being it
Third eye concentrates
Relate
Now you seeing it
Music shares the reality here
Have a go no fear
You can be in it Right here!

Yo who got the freedom to do this?everybody!
we can all be buddhist still ya body
only once yo who got the freedom to do this?
everybody! we can all be buddhist still ya body
