Samples / Lyrics

End
Nothingness
Comes to
The Greater Awareness of Itself
Behind Intellect
I am the truth
Descension
The question of reality
Consciousness
I am God
The Ultimate Resonance
Spirit
I am the soul respecting
Unconscious
Transcendence Force
Secret Consciousness
Power
This insensitive image of the modern world
The scientific view of nature
Synchronicity
Consciousness
Has operational effect
Cause and Effect
Nothingness
The Absolute Truth
