Текст песни
A lotus is a flower
That thrives in muddy water
In the heat of summer
It rises through the mire
Its leaves shedding water
Like beads of mercury
Blossom rising through the mud
Free in its beauty
My mind is making circles
Like the helicopters overhead
The freeway is my river
And the concrete is my bed
I try to hold the one point
But I can't concentrate
My mind is caught in traffic
And I can't put on the brake
Can I float like a lotus
Rising through the muddy water
Can I slow my mind up
Can I empty my cup
Can I float . . . like a lotus
The TV is my mantra
News of war my lullaby
With terror all around us
What's the truth and what's lie
My monkey mind keeps jumping
Will it ever rest
Is life just a lesson
And will I pass the test
Can I float like a lotus
Rising through the muddy water
Can I slow my mind up
Can I empty my cup
Can I float . . . like a lotus
Peace is in a garden
That they want to take away
Can I stop the harming
Sitting in this lotus space
Looking for my third eye
Two is not enough
If life's an illusion
When will I wake up
Can I float like a lotus
Rising through the muddy water
Can I slow my mind up
Can I empty my cup
Can I float . . . like a lotus
The Buddha had a master plan
Peace and happiness for every woman and man
The Buddha had a master plan
Peace and happiness for everyone
Om...
