BLUE IN BEATS Meaning & Lyrics (Namedarumaaz)
BADSAIKUSH writes about smoking ‘mariju#na’ to gain clarity, describing red-stained eyes and enlightenment. ‘Cannabis stains my eyes red and opens my enlightenment,’ he pens. The poet connects these experiences with his creative process, harvesting words while immersed in altered states.
Ore no jinsei wa unaru beats ni umeru mi oMy life is buried in these roaring beats,
Yudaneta mama deas I just surrender myself to them.
Kawa no nagare no you ni itsumademo nagareteruIt’s flowing forever like a river’s current,
Atama no naka dedeep inside my head.
Sazanami no you ni yurete wa marijuana oI’m swaying like ripples as I smoke ‘mariju#na’,
