Pete Muldoon - Enter Shaman (feat. Raheem DeVaughn & Yaya Balbed)

As she followed the butterfly
The last of its kind
It ascended atop a building
So up the fire escape she climbed
On the roof she sees an old man
Over a cauldron filled with vines
The butterfly lands on his finger
And smoke freezes in time
A man in shabby clothes
But the spirit of a lion

I thought all butterflies extinct
All beautiful things seem to die
My soul's been brought 'bout to the brink
In this world of broken lies

It would seem these fools killed most everything
Almost but not all
Life is merely sleeping
Waiting for the beast to fall

The question is do you want to live
Or die with this machine?
I have seen you have a part to play
For a mind awakening
The light inside that fuels your thirst
Is the seed of future dreams
So the Dragon has been watching you
To bring you to his stream
He will take you beneath his wing
For soon I'll see you fly
And you will witness a new age
As the earth and heavens cry
Watch my cauldron and the flame
Look deep within the pot
You can see your future deep within
But the flames of truth are hot

Alicia stared into the brew
And the bubbles burst and popped
Her eyes and head felt heavy
And all her worries stopped
But the Dragon he was watching her
So he worked within the flam
He decided to spit some magic
That would seep into her brain
