Break on through to the other side,
The looking glass might show you why,
The truth is what they'll need to say to you.
Vanished from society,
And hidden from your eyes.
I've returned with hope that they would pray for you (pray for you!)
AMARANTH
Common ideas and vernacular,
Spectacular, Verse ego Dracula!
Talking shit but they don't back it up.
Speakin' on yo name so slanderous!
I don't really care! What's it really matter?
If you got class, or you call it swagger?
Rose is a rose, by all names.
Name change but the game is the same!
NAM
The wall falls down, But no one is around,
To celebrate with you! Wait for me a day or two!
Running... On my way, I'm kicking dirt around
as not to fall in love as I traverse America!
Time takes us all to the same end.
Words cannot define all of these thoughts within my mind!
Where she and I fornicated!
Staring at my palms. I'm human after all.
Oooooohhhh BABE! Where did you go?
I'm feelin' so alone.
Oooooohhhh BABE! Won't you turn me on,
So we can die from the World Destruction Bomb! (BOMB!)
AMARANTH
In the Garden of Eden, The Amaranth spoke to The Rose.
Amaranth said, "She's beautiful. Rosie said, "I know"
Then she said "I may be beauty -
That's my job but we all got duties,
Young Amaranth, I know it ain't easy.
Life came fast you ain't used to high speeding."
It's been a long time coming,
This is cool but it's not cool runnings.
Broke is a joke, lyrically I'm stuntin'
Metaphysical gun, Kickback I'm puntin'.
As a human, I spend a lot of time
Rethinking my thoughts and rewriting my lines.
I use my words, to change yo Life.
For me to help you, I gotta live mine right.
NAM
Where to begin with Life's great mysteries?
Thoughts, Hair, Emotion, Matter, and Energy.
All from within Your Eternal Unity,
Wake up, Wide eyes, Why do this to me?
Miss me, Love, Hugs, Kiss me,
Simply scored off the soundtrack symphony,
GPT, Do you copy? Get me?
Godly sound of the song come trip with me (me)
In a land... Of Giant Puppet Theatre...

Thoughts - the words in your mind.
Hair - growth.
Emotions - feel.
Matter - understand.
Energy - make sense.
I talk to my thoughts.
Mold my hair.
Feel emotional.
My body is what matters.
No matter... I am energy.
GIANT PUPPET THEATRE, (circa. 2012) is a genre-bending, melodic rap group with music "based on ancient Eastern philosophy
combined with western thinking, Pink Floyd, and a love for life."
Sharp commentary, big hooks, and stunning melodies make the Minneapolis rapper, poet, and songwriter's latest solo LP a triumph. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 8, 2023
