[Intro]

[Cantonese][Verse 1]
灰色高樓 封鎖我天空
鏡中我 看不懂
靈魂染了塵 須一點紅
Searching for a sign in the neon light's glow

[Cantonese][Pre-Chorus]
一筆丹砂 喺(在)我額頭點化
Purify me... Cleanse me...
萬念歸一 等靈性爆發

[Cantonese][Chorus / Drop 1]
以我心火！煉我神魂！
破開迷津！道炁求真！

[Hook]
Soul!
Chant!
Now!!!

[Cantonese][Rap 1 - The Invocation / 咒啟]
[注：此為道教八大神咒之一的《淨口神咒》]
丹朱口神，吐穢除氛
舌神正倫，通命養神
羅千齒神，卻邪衛真
喉神虎賁，炁神引津
心神丹元，令我通真
思神鍊液，道炁常存！！！

[Bridge]
That touch of red, a fire in my soul
A universe unfolds, making me whole...

[Cantonese][Chorus / Drop 2]
以我心火！煉我神魂！
破開迷津！道炁求真！

[Cantonese][Outro / Rap 2 - The Ascension / 飛升]
(Ah... aah... aaaaaah...)
丹朱口神，吐穢除氛..
舌神正倫，通命養神...
羅千齒神，卻邪衛真...
喉神虎賁，炁神引津...
心神丹元，令我通真...
思神鍊液，道炁常存...
[End]

In the rich tapestry of Chinese philosophy and traditional medicine, few elements are as foundational as 丹砂(Dān Shā), or Cinnabar. This vibrant red mineral is famously listed as the very first substance in the Shennong Ben Cao Jing, one of China's oldest and most important texts on medicine, attributed to the legendary sage-king Shennong. Beyond its historical use in alchemy, Cinnabar is deeply revered in Daoism. Its brilliant red color is seen as the embodiment of pure yang energy, representing life, vitality, and the power to dispel negative forces. For this reason, it has long been the sacred pigment used to write protective talismans and consecrate ritual spaces.

Working in harmony with this physical element of purification is a spiritual practice known as the 淨口神咒(Jìng Kǒu Shén Zhòu), or the Mouth Cleansing Incantation. This ancient Daoist chant is recited not to clean the physical mouth, but to purify one's speech and mind from "mouth karma"—the negative residue left by gossip, lies, or harsh words. By reciting the incantation, practitioners prepare themselves for sacred rituals or meditation, ensuring that their intentions and communications are pure and aligned with the Dao, the fundamental Way of the universe.

The connection between the two is profound and direct. The Mouth Cleansing Incantation begins by invoking the "丹朱口神(Dān Zhū Kǒu Shén)," which translates to the "Cinnabar-Red Mouth Spirit." This establishes an immediate link between the spiritual act of chanting and the symbolic power of the mineral. Together, Cinnabar and the incantation illustrate a core Daoist principle: the integration of the material and the spiritual, both used as powerful tools for purification, protection, and achieving a deeper connection with the natural order.
