I think this song is about playing guitar.

10,000 years or more In jet black meditation - Getting high and playing guitar for hours, losing track of time.

Sonic Tempress hears no more And hands me my salvation - His playing is rewarded with noteriety

Walking thru the piles of life Ignore all accusation - Everyday people trying to bring you down for doing what you love IE "put down the guitar and get a job"

Now I stand here hands are sore But thats my motivation - Again with the guitar playing

The vision never died The earthling walked in flight - He kept true to what he wanted to play
