Since we're on the subject of Alchemy, I thought I would post some lyrics that's off my new album titled, 'The Philosopher's Stone'. It's the title track I wrote and the first song off the new album.

Feel free to read them and tell me what you think.

The Philosopher's Stone

An alchemical enigma through discovery
I shall guard this Arcanum from the knavish
Fulfill the genuine principles of the Alkahest
Through solve et coagula

Condensation of a subtle substance
Spiritual elevation beyond the heavens
Utilize this gift of elixir
Enlighten me through the Materia Prima

Recieve divine immortality
Through practice, prayer, and ritual
Chemical process, mental progress
Unite the all conscious mind with mystic law

Dissolution of the imperfect metal
Into a perfect crystaline matter
Transmutation of mind, body, and soul
From the purification in gold

Metaphysical awakening within the heart
Extract the very essence of purity
I have seen the Great Work as it reflects
Through the Philosopher's Stone

Give away the stone. let the oceans take and transmutate this cold and fated
Anchor.
Give away the stone. let the waters kiss and transmutate these leaden grudges
Into gold.

A bit of something from MJK out of Tool.
