about

Oracle is all about seeing the inner potential in oneself and seeing how far you can go with it. In the chorus, Burnstra talks about the light that is behind him (and symbolically in him) blinding you; the viewers and listeners.
He displays his multiple visions and perspectives (like a kaleidoscope) throughout the song and wants the listener to be embraced in the experience that is: The Pygmalion Effect. This song was originally made in 2013, but Burnstra decided to put it in the vault instead of on his 2013 project, L.I.F.E. (Life In Full Effect)

lyrics

[Chorus]

My travels have taken me further than any telescope
I’m seeing more visions than a child’s kaleidoscope
Y’all blinded by the light, I’m just castin shadows
Cuz all this light to my back has now got me foreshadowed (x2)

[Verse 1]

I’m sittin here, reminiscin
Contemplatin in my bath robe
Just checked the account
Confident with two digits on the bank note
Don’t judge by appearances though
A rich heart may be under a poor coat
And never be ignorant or arrogant
With things you cannot boast
I’m not here to talk shit
This ain’t Comedy Central’s Roast
I’m tryna make that bread
So I can buy butter
For the fam to butter they toast
Couldn’t care about location
As long as they’re talkin Burna
On the east and west coast
Pushin out papers promotin
More than the Columbus Dispatch dosed

[Chorus]

My travels have taken me further than any telescope
I’m seeing more visions than a child’s kaleidoscope
Y’all blinded by the light, I’m just castin shadows
Cuz all this light to my back has now got me foreshadowed (x2)

[Verse 2]

I’m soarin pourin power and pride
Into each of my disciples
Flyin high off radar
Spy planes seen by no eyes
I’m like any other man
Walkin the streets
Each side by side
From NY to LA
By plane, train or automobile I ride
That’s that white shit
I’m talkin John Candy, Steve Martin fly
I ain’t at all French
But shouts to all the rappers that I fried
Sorry I’m not sorry
To all those bitches that I made cry
But there can only be one winner in this game
And I’m the default guy
This the game, but bitch I never play it
I just bus em down and bust em up
Then fornicate em
Then after I roll that medication
Cuz Snow White done went into a coma
So I tryna face this pearl
Just to freshen up the room’s aroma
Cuz my travels have taken me further than any telescope
I’m seeing more visions than a child’s kaleidoscope
Y’all blinded by the light, I’m just castin shadows
Cuz all this light to my back has now got me foreshadowed

[Chorus]

My travels have taken me further than any telescope
I’m seeing more visions than a child’s kaleidoscope
Y’all blinded by the light, I’m just castin shadows
Cuz all this light to my back has now got me foreshadowed (x2)
