Ofra Haza - עפרה חזה
Soul Ties
[Intro: Ofra Haza]
(woman singing in Hebrew)

[Chorus]
Spirit ties when the body dies
Lookin' for ways to transition to the otherside
Spiritual planes, I'm twenty-two
But inside she never gave me a age
It's dark and light in disguise
It's the spiritual bang

[Verse 1]
Dawn of the beginning
I feel 'em, I give 'em syrem
They zero, they see my emblem elders
They maybe mentioned it
Chillin with my indigenous vision of all what Kemet is
Pyramids in my cannabis, 'pyricists in dat vanity
Tryna keep it maintained, always the same game
Pick up on that energy, genuine or a enemy
Stuck between the same scene, 'til it just all changed
Dreamin' only dream until you turn it to reality
N***as want that salary
I just need serenity
Talkin' to they minds, until they finally find divinity
Hangin' with them older n***as, givin' me game
He said the streets'll be the coldest teacher, if you ordained
Some real shit from a real crip, killed my n***a that week
Reincarnated, see 'em born to the fleet
Told him I know 'em, but he don't know me
Open your eyes wide, can't see three
Only can find me what your eyes couldn't see
I'm like that diamond that you found at the beach
They call me shaman, I'm the prophet that see
I keep it comin' like a soul on repeat (soul on repeat)
[Chorus]
The spirit ties then the body dies
Lookin' for ways to transition to the otherside
Spiritual planes, I'm twenty-two
But inside she never gave me a age
It's dark and light in disguise
It's the spiritual bang

The spirit ties when the body dies
Lookin' for ways to transition to the otherside
Spiritual planes, I'm twenty-two
But inside she never gave me a age
It's dark and light in disguise
It's the spiritual bang

[Verse 2]
You ever questioned this reality?
Spirit--it's all melody
This God-body language, the world is her ideology
Lookin' for philosophy
The product out of poverty
Democracy, the mockery, jailin' another prodigy
Money is they god, lost connection with divine
Comin' from most high, written in soul tie
Jewel inside the lotus, the mirror inside beyond
Take a trip inside my mental, it's chiseled inside my mind
See, the phoenix never die, reborn and immortalized
Like the water from the EL's, my offering to the sky
It was scripted in my spirit and encoded inside my flight
Before I even met my body, my solar was crystal light
When you see it from a god's view, it's all a design
Take a drink, take a sip of this elixir of life
When it's over, spirit leavin' as light
Mama told me "Death come within insights"
To find purpose, power come with a price
This the jungle, only strong will survive
Vibe
[Outro]
The soul can exist without the body
But the body cannot exist without the soul
When the soul pulls out of the body, the body goes cold
Because the soul is the sun, is the heat, that keeps this body animate
So, we have to see that, basically, the soul is always in the primary position
And then, the-the physical bodies actually come after that...

[Refrain]
P-p-p-pick up on that energy, genuine or a enemy
