Jazzation: For Quincy Troupe

Swing Brother, play your masterpiece
Lift our spirits with enduring
Melodious sequels of verse
“Let the Sacred Music begin”
That Oscillating Nature sound
Let us all now, just sing along
In our voices – colorful
Blended fountain – liquid music.
The air is vibrating in here
Waves of real conscious expression
True to the hearts that are inspired
By the common flowing dance beat
The rhythm that helps us move to…
Move to the beat of love now.
Tribal eloquence, evolved beat,
The heart of civilization
Vibrating within us – Within
This creation – this ancient beat –
Striving for the creating light.

We’re lifted by God’s gift of Bread
And Wine that when ingested here
Is absorbed therefore becoming
Part of us again – renewal –
Felt within a guiding reason
Wisdom flowing within us all
Like music and living rhythm.

Meaning splashing sky bound changing…
Changing form while evaporating
Melding into the atmosphere
Becoming part of atmosphere.

Listen to the, Listen to the -beat- -Beat-
Listen to the, Listen to the -beat- -Beat-
Add now to the, Adding to the -beat- -Beat-
Add now to the, Adding to the -beat- -Beat-
Becoming a new harmony:

Background beat – add a melody,
Background beat – make a symphony,
Background beat – Do a rhythm dance,
Background beat – Hear the spoken word,
Hear the tintinnabulation
Watch the cele-celebration
Unfold here before your eyes, for
Now – all join in jubilation.

Becoming a new harmony:

Welcome to the land – lend a hand
Welcome to the sea – search with me
Welcome to the sky – where souls fly
Welcome to the Pith – Thank the Lamb.

Listen to the Truth, discard the myths
Livin’ in the freedom of the…
The freedom of the ancient and
Inherent rhythm – exploding
Sensations guided in reason
The human tribal dance evolved
All while worshipping Spirit
The One Divine Orchestrator
The Composer and Inventor
Of this most elegant rhythm:
The Universe Experience.

Welcome to the musical ride
Welcome to the mercurial
Moments that stand as one unit;
Get ready for eternity!

Listen to the, Listen to the -beat- -Beat-
Listen to the, Listen to the -beat- -Beat-
Add now to the, Adding to the -beat- -Beat-
Add now to the, Adding to the -beat- -Beat-
Becoming a new harmony!
