Lyrics
Somewhere I heard that life is a game of chess? If I may protest,
Trivial Pursuit, I would say is the name that best
Describes the pain & stress, brings alive the shame
and tense moments that we go through til
We're all layed to rest
We slave for cents, and dollars just to pay the rent
It doesn't make no sense, our ancestors shared their caves & tents
So all of a sudden we can lay cement,
We think that we've evolved
We're really just some apes who shave their face & neck
I watch this great descent and pray my words will make a dent
We may prevent extinction, but we have to face our gravest threat
It's not the comet or Osama in his favorite jet
Our worst opponent yet, is ourselves, though we may repent
My main regret is that I've shown the same neglect
That most humans show their brain
It's like a train that's on it's way to wreck
Some say my words mean less than a grain or speck
While others say my message sends 'em on an extraplanar quest
I don't know who to trust, & so I watch the rays reflect
I'm staring out the window, for this life I'm in major debt
I pay respect, with a little bit of change that I got
& with the little bit of brains that I rock I say
Everybody thinks that incidents are accidents
But evidence suggests that events are not coincidence
Life is a labyrinth, quite elaborate
Twisting turning, shouldn't even bother mapping it
You can't imagine it, even though you travel it
It's just like Plato said we haven't even left the cavern yet
Life is a long cave, it 's complex
Convex every time that it's concave
The wrong way, is easily found, we're all lost
All looking to escape somehow at all cost,
Trapped, this cage remains nameless
With no map we travel this maze aimless
Ya can't grasp? I'll put it plain layman's
Expect the unexpected, a saying that stays ageless
Everybody thinks that incidents are accidents
But evidence suggests that events are not coincidence
Man I gotta get away from all this lunacy
& see how the puzzle pieces fit beautifully
Sometimes nothings better than a soothing breeze
Looking at the moon, stars, & the lunar seas
Back when everything was new to me
I felt immunity, but I was soon to see
That many human beings weren't in tune with me
But I still strive for unity, why you think I got it tattooed to me?
But man I got bigger fish to fry
Change what I can, then go & kiss the sky
I don't wish to die, but death got me curious
Like, where my soul goes after enduring this
Existance, most follow the path of least resistance
Ya wanna go the distance? Stay consistant
With persistance at every single instance
Change for yourself, not a fuckin' business
What is this? Music or poetry?
Neither & both, just tools of a soul that's free
No one's controlling me, the roads open
So let's go check the beauty the beholder's seen
