Lyrics

Intro (Life)

[Jeru The Damaja]

Life is the result of the struggle between dynamic opposites

Form and Chaos, Substance and Oblivion, Light and Dark

And all the infinite variations of Yin and Yang

When the pendulum swings in favor of one

It will eventually swing in favor of its opposite

Thus the balance of the universe is maintained
