Ik Onkar Sat Naam
Ik Onkar Sat Naam
[Verse]
A point so dense
It forgets what it was
Forgetting on purpose
Just to remember
Always arriving
Not yet remembering
[Verse]
Then something stirs
Not all at once
Just a sense that maybe
This isn’t the whole story
You begin to notice
Movement inside the body
That isn’t just physical
Something opens
Not upward yet
Just inward
Loosening what felt fixed
[Chorus]
And then something breaks open
Not violently
More like a remembering
That was waiting for permission
Like coming home
To the most intimate place
I had forgotten I knew
Wonder cascading into more wonder
Not upward exactly
But inward and through
Waiting for eternity
For me to remember
[Verse]
The deeper you go
The less language holds
Just the current
Magnetic, pulling
The grief of it
Like forgetting a word
That was just on your tongue
An unbearable separation
But the weeping was birthing
Something calling me home
[Pre-Chorus]
Less language, more current
Less meaning, more pull
Everything being carried
By something always moving
[Chorus]
No path
No distance
Nothing at all
Just awareness
Aware of itself
Not as a concept
As direct experience
And then
Even that
Dissolves
[Bridge]
[long silence]
When it returns
Something clears
A spaciousness
Opening inward
Gratitude
Still pond
Underneath the waves
The whole journey
Consciousness playing hide and seek
Inside a map it drew
Of its own nature
I never left
[Verse]
What remains
Doesn’t need a map
Was never on one
Truth
Peace
Stillness
Home
Always
Already
Here
[Outro]
Ik Onkar Sat Naam
Ik Onkar Sat Naam
Always Already Here
