Silent Ether

[Verse]
Tiger in the jungle, memory gone blank,
Indonesia fog thick, thoughts hit the tank.
Twenty-eight grams in a smoky demeanor,
Pseudo in a flask, the teacher’s name Ether.
[Verse 2]
Silent like a monk but the lessons loud,
Wisdom in the vapor, no cap, no crowd.
Understand the unknown, know you know none,
Chasing the horizon where the ether runs.
[Chorus]
It’s simpler than riddles, the mind gets brittle,
Pieces of the puzzle stuck in the middle.
Silent teacher whispers, truth in the haze,
Lost in the ether, infinite maze.
[Verse 3]
Cookin’ up the questions in a beaker of doubt,
Life’s a test tube, the answers leak out.
Drip-drop knowledge, the slow burn thinker,
Eyes wide open but the vision gets dimmer.
[Verse 4]
Amnesia tiger, memory raw,
Hunting for the prey in a mind with no law.
Pseudo science bubbling, lessons get steeper,
Ether holds the key, but the keyhole’s deeper.
[Bridge]
Breath it in slow, let the silence teach,
Far beyond the language, out of human reach.
Grams of the truth weigh heavy on the scale,
Understanding nothing, the mind’s holy grail.
