Lyrics:
Om (X3)
Focus on your breath and feel up the surroundins'...feel up the surroundins' (X2)
Your mind will wander like it does and it will, your mind will wander like it does (X2)
Imagination trained, attention to the heart beat...attention to the heart bear (X2)
Your mind will wander like it does and it will, your mind will wander like it does (X2)
No nag champa, I forgot my mantra...I forgot my mantra
Focus on your breath and feel up your surroundins'

Imagination trained attention the heartbeat...attention to the heart
No nag champa, I forgot my mantra...Marsha, Marsha, Marsha!
My mind will wander like it does and it did...My mind will wander like it does (X4)
Om

[Anothertruecomment]

this was amazing at wormtown! loved how he had us sing with him. the gals sang one part while the felas ohmmmmed. and this song has a beautiful meaning that i didnt even catch when i heard it live. namaste!

[soulpedal]

Saw him in Phx couple weeks ago. Now I regularly tune down my guitars and jam this track to the G scale on my Tele, pluck on the acoustic, get a high-hat going on the drums and zone out to Mantra. I guarantee the his "Hummmm" meditation sound comes from the guitar open E and hammering on the G which he also uses during the acoustic piece, which seems like his favorite instrument. His timing bare hands is spot on. I think it was a bass line where he did a retake live... you could tell he was pissed every time it looped, but lol nobody else in the room could tell I'm sure. Quite the treat!

[jonathanandreatta]

Listening in Brazil. That's the jam.

[clarkoriginal]

fucking champion of looping with a guitar and everything else! so inspiring

[soulpedal]

True story, I stood front stage hoping to show him SoulPedal® thinking he normally wears shoes of course. Joke's on me now, darn he would have been a good Beta Tester. His sound guy (Lou?) liked it anyway.
