Lyrics

[Verse 1]

We must get closer to the essence of life

But be aware that it takes courage and strife

Expand your mind, don't let it wither and die

You'll find it lifts your spirit high to the sky

So meditate

Let's contemplate

Talk to the heavenly bodies of the universe

Of the universe

[Verse 2]

We must get closer to the essence of life

But be aware that it takes courage and strife

Expand your mind, don't let it wither and die

You'll find it lifts your spirit high to the sky

So meditate

Yeah, let's contemplate

Go on, go on, talk to the heavenly bodies of the universe

Of the universe, of the universe

[Verse 3]

Talk to the heavenly bodies, talk to the heavenly bodies

Go on, talk to the heavenly bodies of the universe

[Verse 4]

Meditate

Contemplate

Meditate

Contemplate

I said, meditate, contemplate

[Verse 5]

We must get closer to the essence of life

But be aware that it takes courage and strife

Expand your mind, don't let it wither and die

You'll find it lifts your spirit high to the sky

So meditate

Yeah, let's contemplate

Go on, go on and talk to the heavenly bodies of the universe

[Verse 6]

We must get closer to the essence of life

But be aware that it takes courage and strife

Expand your mind, don't let it wither and die

You'll find it lifts your spirit high to the sky

So meditate

Yeah, let's contemplate

So meditate

Come on and contemplate

Yes, meditate

Come on, contemplate

Talk to the heavenly bodies, go on, talk to the heavenly bodies

Talk to the heavenly bodies, talk to the heavenly bodies

Talk to the heavenly bodies, talk to the heavenly bodies

Talk to the heavenly bodies of the universe

Of the universe

Go on and talk to the heavenly bodies, the heavenly bodies

Of the universe

[Verse 7]

Meditate, people, meditate, brothers and sisters

Meditate, brothers and sisters

Meditate, brothers and sisters

Let's contemplate

Let us talk to the heavenly bodies, let us talk to the heavenly bodies

Yes, meditate, talk to the heavenly bodies

Of the universe

I said of the universe

Yes, I said of the universe

Of the universe

Of the universe

Of the universe

Of the universe
