When in motion
While it's frozen
Talks in circles
And Greek
He's into epiphany
He's into philosophy
He's into methyl amphetamines
He's into science
But he's lost his way
Oh oh
He is not the real me
But I can hear I can hear I can hear I can hear him
From my future
Show show show show me
Show show show show me
You got to show me the way
You got to show me the way
Oh the present
A super impulse
He has seen this
Before
He's into conspiracy
He's into the?
He's into phenomenology
He's into deeds
He don't mix his words
Oh oh
He is not the real me
But I can hear I can hear I can hear I can hear him
From my future
Show show show show me
Show show show show me
You gotta show me the way
While it's frozen
Talks in circles
And Greek
He's into epiphany
He's into philosophy
He's into methyl amphetamines
He's into science
But he's lost his way
Oh oh
He is not the real me
But I can hear I can hear I can hear I can hear him
From my future
Show show show show me
Show show show show me
You got to show me the way
You got to show me the way
Oh the present
A super impulse
He has seen this
Before
He's into conspiracy
He's into the?
He's into phenomenology
He's into deeds
He don't mix his words
Oh oh
He is not the real me
But I can hear I can hear I can hear I can hear him
From my future
Show show show show me
Show show show show me
You gotta show me the way

I think it's about how a lot of us try to show/claim we're into things that are highbrow or popular, but really we're just organic beings that have very basic desires and needs(the 'real' me).
Or maybe it's just Kele's interpretation of how Philip K. Dick really felt.
