The Seven Sutras of Banana
All seven sutras, one ripe song. Dripping truth, sipping groove. BananaSutra: nothing to prove, obviously.
Lyrics
[Intro] Peel back the veil, babe, my fruit’s gone ripe, Seven slick secrets in a sutra rite, Drippin’ truth, sippin’ groove, Bananasutra got nothin’ to prove. [Verse 1 – KNOWsutra 1st Sutra = knowing through curiosity] One: KNOW, don’t show off, just grow wise, Ask, don’t mask, let the mind improvise, Bananas got forms that defy your plan, I’m peelin’ philosophy right in your hand. [Verse 2 – BLOWsutra speaks of absurd egos masquerades] Two: BLOW, beware of the slippery spin, Hey you! Watch out, peel on the floor again! Bananasutra booms with a rebel grin, Fall on your ego, that’s where we begin. [Verse 3 – SHOWsutra celebrates fool (not foul) play & self-expression] Three: SHOW, we shine like jesters divine, Ape gone wild on a burlesque line, Banana smile in a jelly-roll role, We fool ‘cause we feel, that’s the medicine for soul. [Verse 4 – GROWsutra is where we be brave, because yay to empowerment & evolution] Four: GROW, breathe deep, baby, roots grow proud, Rise from the rind, sing brave and loud, Bananas be bold, fruit blessed on cue, I’m the priestess of peel. Hallelujah to you. [Bridge – FLOWsutra oh la la, time for surrender & transcendence aka trust] Five: FLOW, time melts, the beat ticks slick, Heartbeat drips that cosmic click, Leap through space, no peel, no fear, Bananasutra floatin’ through atmosphere. [Verse 5 – GLOWsutra where gratitude means illumination] Six: GLOW, shimmer soft in the solar sigh, Velvet banana in a nebula sky, Gratitude glows under golden skin, Immunity born where the truth sinks in. [Verse 6 – BOWsutra humility & wonder or, the closing revelation] Seven: BOW, blush deep at the divine appeal, Magic banana, surreal, so real, Bend, not break, just kiss the light, Bananasutra bows to what shines bright. [Outro gone banana] So peel me slow where the secrets hum, Each sutra sung, each layer undone, Bananasutra, the gospel’s clear, The joke, the joy, the love… all here. -- (By Bananasutra) [Intro] Peel back the veil, babe, my fruit’s gone ripe, Seven slick secrets of a sutra rite, Dripping truth, sipping groove, Bananasutra got nothing to prove. [Verse 1 – KNOWsutra] Ask, don’t mask, baby, knowledge got curves, Twistin’ these questions, bendin’ them verbs, Bananas in forms that defy your plan, I’m peelin’ philosophy right in your hand. [Verse 2 – BLOWsutra] Hey you! Watch out, peel on the floor! Slippin’ on truth, want a little bit more? Bananasutra boom at the bully grin, Fall on your ego, fair warning. [Verse 3 – SHOWsutra] Ape gone wild, circus of soul, Banana smile in a jelly-roll role, Laugh with the peel, honey, it’s art, We fool ‘cause we feel, that’s the bestest part. [Verse 4 – GROWsutra] Breathe deep, baby, roots grow loud, Rise from the rind, stand proud in the crowd, Bananas be brave, fruit blessed on cue, I’m the priestess of peel, hallelujah to you. [Bridge – FLOWsutra] Tune in the tick, the clock gone slick, Heartbeat drips like cosmic click, Leap through space, no peel, no fear, Bananasutra floatin’ through the atmosphere. [Verse 5 – GLOWsutra] Shimmer and hum with the solar sigh, A velvet banana in a nebula sky, Gratitude glows in a golden skin, Makes us immune to holy bullshit sin [Verse 6 – BOWsutra] Now hush… we blush at the divine appeal, The magic banana, surreal, so real, Bend, not break, just kiss the light, Bananasutra bows that what shines bright. [Outro] So peel me slow where the secrets hum, Each sutra sung, each layer undone, Bananasutra, the gospel’s clear, The joke, the joy, the love… all here. [end]
