Transparent Teacher

there is a transparent teacher in class at school
Tryin to learn but we can't see you
they make the rules while were told not to choose
stuck up shit creek in the ship of fools
our invisible instructor constructs what's put asunder
a blunder perhaps as they plunder the wonder
hidden under until it's uncovered
a beautiful spender waiting to be discovered
if the repression of a lost lesson's recovered
the see through scholar displays a shade of color
for just a second the lost lesson gave him life
and we could see him with our very own eyes
could it be the lost lesson is a lie
to hide and disguise the mind we can't find
can we reprise the sign of the times
or will we sing a sad song cuz the scholar has died?
probably not we'll never see he even tried.

His mission it appears is very dear and clearly he feels sincere without fear
too bad the veil will never reveal his quest for the lesson or even the trail
that he laid out for us to find
as we follow the trail making circles inside
the path of the heart to the trail of the mind
subliminal sublime language on a sign
written in a tounge that you can't describe
surprised!
you find you can't translate
the foreign message in the secret space
maybe you've reached the time and the place
to erase your taught preceptions and take the case
or maybe it's time to find a mate
someone to relate and help you translate
the eternal message your mind can't complete
or will you resign yourself to your fate?
substanciate the things that are fake
a sad disgrase for a waste of space
placed in a locked case no trace of your face
can you relate to your mates in this place?
the world is trapped the lost lesson's been erased

There is someone standing in your class
in the future and in the past
so at last!
you can see for yourself
the time has come for us to share our wealth
the earth is alive and it needs our help
killing ourselves when were all the same
a sad shame and were all to blame
unity is holding hands with pain
you think personal gain is all that remains?
the sun can warm your body but your soul feels the shame
it's time to live together or die alone
ya see no one knows that the throne can grow
a lie carved into stone eons ago
tells us that we sit down alone
and succomb to a king that's not there
anyone can sit in a glorified chair
but if were ignorant then were unaware
that billions of roads lead to the same trail
at the end of the day it's always the same
if your in L.A. or if your in spain
the sun goes down and the moon remains
take a look up and you will see
a part of you and a piece of me
the same stars inspire the scenes from our dreams
is there really one root growin under a tree?
the whole world is dead if that's what you believe
seperate​ parts work in unity
for universal prosperity
Poverty's equality if we rip out the roots benieth the souls tree
Is it really such a shock for you to find
that the transparent teacher was never alive
Could the lost lesson then just be a lie?
Or have we forgotten something inside?

At the height of my teaching career in China, I wrote this... I believe this one was also written in one sitting
