So many people mistake facts as the answers to life's mysteries

In reality, facts are just clues

Along the path of an infinitely large and undiscovered map

Leading to an ultimate treasure

That is truth

Time to engage with your surroundings
Don't deny the violent sounds that are your own heart's poundings
Deal with all life's ******* no matter how bleak it may be sounding

Is it real to you?
Sitting there with a set jaw and intense stare
I know you are a logical person
Could such a story ring true in such a brilliant mind?
A God who sent himself to die for the creation he made
As a part of his own plan to glorify himself
To show the love he has for his "sons and daughters"
Despite this love
He continues to send people like me
And people who are ten times the human I will ever be
To burn in hell
For eternity

Body? What's the definition of the word.... body..... a coalition of..... anything? Bodies bodies bodies.....
I'm baked

If only it was as easy as just understanding..
Belief with parallel action is what we need to master
Most of us know what we need
Many of us know what the world needs
Few of us act on that enlightenment
Therefore remaining unenlightened
If only it wasn't so easy just to remain a bull *******

The prison you have painted around yourself
You don't even realize your in
When you lie to yourself you harm your mental health
Don't blame this on Satan or sin

I do believe the worst of feelings are better than having none at all
So be happy when it hurts after you fall
A sense of emptiness is what I now fear the most
Its not always with me, but haunts like a ghost
Those groggy late weekends where sleep is a drug
I lay there so lifeless with less worth than a rug
Somebody shoot me, or stab me , or **** me
Good God above just let me feel something

What you had, provided stability
What you had also caused countless moments of toil, discomfort, and an overall sense of stagnation
What you had, threw you to the side
Rejected; no need for you there anymore
Well if they don't need you
You don't need them
You weren't growing anyways
You were stagnant
And deep down you will always dispise mediocrity
In you or in anyone else
So reject it before it rejects you

It's like you were my spirit’s mirror
You vowed to build me up
I told you I would do the same as we shared our deepest love
You are more than just a woman and clearly not a girl
Within you lies the power to devour and to heal
More than just a girlfriend, a relationship with nature
The source of all primal desire, undefined by nomenclature
We shared such common interests and had plans to build a future
But suddenly your heart switched gears, left mine torn in need suture

Only I could fix those wounds and learn from what has happened
I simply will be thankful and let not my soul be blackened

And I will not hold back when I have the chance to love
When you break your heart it grows back stronger than it ever was

I ingest the sacred fungi, my heart pounds forth anticipation
For my body knows my consciousness will soon see a changing situation
Such complex revelations
I feel the ground beneath awaken
I realize all of us are intertwined with this beautiful creation
I look into my friends eye's and see me looking back
I am you and you are me; sounds crazy but its fact
All sharing in this collective breath the universe exhales
Do you understand the implications of what this now entails?
It means we're all responsible as stewards of this earth
War and famine, death and pain we must address but first
We must look into our own selves and purge the greed and hate
To change the world you must change first to make room to create

What was the fuel that drove you into the present and will drive you into the future?
What was the motive for the bridges burned and or moments wasted?
Was the yearning for change a longing for the past?
Or was the only thing that mattered the present since the past and future seemed more and more like a grand illusion with every present moment that presented itself to a conscious mind that could not truly fathom the concept of consciousness itself?
Would the greatest of discoveries just lead to more questions?
Where can we find truth? Who are we? Who aren't we?
It doesn't make sense.
But doesn't that make it all the more beautiful?

If to love you was a gamble, I would be all in
If wanting you was taboo, oh you know that I would sin
If it took miles and miles of climbing, I would not give in
Just to hold you darling I would **** a hundred men
But I know that as of lately you could never feel the same
So when I am around you, girl I go straight insane
I want you to be happy and happy you do seem
But I've never felt the same since the night you stayed with me
Did you want to crush me, did you try to lead me on
Or was I just an object to you, something warm and strong
You gave me hope of having you because right then I did
And despite all the pain it put us through I'd do it all again
Because it seemed so real
So genuine and clean
You made me so **** happy
Time spent with you was a dream

Soon I will find love again and probably get hurt
I hope your there to pick me up when I fall in the dirt
Maybe we can't be together, yes I understand
But I don't have to own you, I have no demands
I want you to be happy and I want to move on
But please don't ever think that means I want you to be gone
I still want to laugh with you about this mess called life
I still want to listen, and offer up advice
I still want to be a friend, not just a passing nod
Don't let one mistake you made make all that's right feel wrong

S: Filled with knowledge like one of a kind
C: Soaked with passion, down to my spine
S: My mistakes are my greatest teacher, they put me in line
C: My perceptions were once limited, much like my time
S: Until I spit about life, and made it all rhyme
C: With thoughts so heavy, they could become crimes
S: But my only crime is love, its what I have for all
C: I love when I rise and still love when I fall
S: So don't tell me what its like to really live. From all I was dealt, love could be the least energy I give
C: I turn off my brain and think with my heart. When I do this, my whole life becomes art
S: And my ego falls apart. When my ego falls apart, my soul awakens. Allowing me to go with the flow, let me not be mistaken

"I wish I would have expressed and felt love more"
"I wish I would have expressed myself/been myself more"
"I wish I would have been true to myself instead of living the life others expected of me"
"I wish I had helped more people"
"I wish I hadn't been such an *******"

Hope is a fire that life can put out
But it can be rekindled that I don't doubt
The first thing to do when you start to feel down
Is to accept your life for what it is right now
Right now you are aching and empty inside
You start to imagine how it may feel to die
You then take a look at the moon in the sky
Feel your heart beating let tears fill your eyes
Embrace the feeling even if bad
Because your alive and its life to be sad
Know that your different and that's what makes beauty
I assure you that no one feels quite what your feeling
Your soul is an artist that longs to be free
So don't hold it back, let it rage like the sea

I just can never fathom
Why people on the daily jump into the corporate chasm
Chasing monetary lies
But scared of living random
They want purpose they want structure
But that **** is lacking luster

Dull and boring plastic people
Countless hoards of roaming sheeple
I want freedom like an eagle
I won't just chase these crumbs like seaguls

You got time but not a whole bunch
You got money but its never enough
You don't got nobody, nobody to love
But everyone loves you
So that's just enough
You gotta heart, you gotta mind
You gotta spirit so you'll be just fine
You may feel alone, you may feel depressed
But know in the future,you will be blessed
As a matter of fact, your blessed right now
You gotta pair of shoes and two feet on the ground
Hope in your mind and love in your heart
So I think today is a good time to start
Loving yourself, loving your life
Embracing true peace and avoiding all strife

Its a horrible feeling. The feeling that everything you are doing is pointless. You know when I feel this way most? When everything I am doing is for me and me alone.
  I spend so much time worrying about my goals, my passions, my desires..
When I accomplish these goals what do I gain?
A fleeting feeling of partial satisfaction at best. A pat on the back, a few more dollars in my pocket, a quick buzz. . However, when I see that what I have done brings SOMEONE ELSE joy.. That's a feeling of satisfaction that lasts.. When I know I have truly made a difference, then I feel true joy.
  It makes sense really. It has to for the world to go on. Greed and selfishness lead to self-destruction. Maybe the person benefiting from the greed will gain but others will suffer. The world can not progress unless we are all progressing. We are all on the same team and most of us, at our core, desire the same thing. We all desire to be accepted and to give acceptance. To be loved and to give love.
If you think about it, love is the truest definition of acceptance. For the strongest love that humans can possess is is not the love that is sung about on the radio. That love comes and goes and is based on circumstances and actions of the giver and receiver. The strongest love is an unconditional love. A love that sees the immeasurable beauty of a soul and can't not love... Unconditional love means understanding and accepting every unappealing or inconvenient aspect of a being and choosing love anyway. Its not creepy or controlling its just there. .
And it always will be. This is the sort of love that Jesus talked about having for all humanity. If we could learn to love like that, just think of what our world could be..

What makes your eyes shine bright with wonder?
What makes your heart beat like the thunder?
If you could walk down any road
Would you find courage to walk alone?
Will you be honest when I ask
Did you truly love me in the past?
Can you trust me here today
And believe me when I say
That just your perfect flawless presence
Makes me again believe in heaven
There must be forces up above to make such beauty that shines forth love

Tell me I should do my best
But I need no help to clean this mess
All this pain I must confess
Its not in vain it fuels success
Each mental hill each spiritual test
Will train my being until death
You can shine so bright and free
Once you beat back darkness, hate and greed

I am on a rock that's flying through space
But all I want to do is just see your face
No moment in time could ever replace
The way that I felt within your embrace

-People are beginning to do what I call awaken
-They all have understood by now that they were once mistaken
-Lost within their selfishness and blind to real relations
-That every being on this earth is a valuable creation
-You can't define your own self-worth with society's invasion
-Of your mind and spirit; a twisted slow persuasion
-You thought that all your value was built on superficials
-Like who you know and what you own and if you seem official
-But realize in the end that **** only hurts and stresses
-Deep within you's where you'll find solutions to life's messes
-Finding inner peace at last because you chose to choose acceptance
-Its feeling everything that comes because when you live life happens
-Its forgiveness, mercy, joy and pain
-Its sunny days and storms of rain
-Whatever happens or has occurred
- See it all for what it is
- Its beautifully absurd

Turn your eyes away from all the ******* and the drama
- Start to relocate into your own perfect Nirvana
- Don't be filled with doubt or fear cuz that **** is irrilavent
- Running from your past will make you tired in the present bit
- Don't sit around and wish all day like a helpless peasant
- Stand up boy and face your fear, if its rising up don't let it
- Knock down those thoughts before they come or else you will regret it
- Run fast towards joy and love and you'll perfect your incarnation
-You'll realize sharing inner light brings endless inspiration

What is sin but discontent
With the world and your regrets

Spinning on a tilted axis
What could we do to ever have this
Shot at life and all that happens
Can we know if fate or accidents
Would lead us through theses narrow passages
Down the paths of loss and damages

Through the valley of despair
Please keep going don't stop there

Find yourself on the highest mountain
Right beside a clean clear fountain
Live right now for simple presence
Existence is your holy essence

Tell me something I don't know
Is this life a TV show
When I want fast it all goes slow
When time I grasp for it quickly flows
Far from my hands and out of sight
I wish we all could just take flight
With minds so powerful and bright
From hearts of gold we spread delight
We change the world and strive for right
But every day will turn to night

Your greatest teacher is your past
But you must make THIS moment last
No matter if you win or lose
To be here now is what you choose
Experience the bliss of living
Never stop your constant giving
Spread your joy and light and passion
Sport it like the latest fashion

-When you start to spiral towards the hopeless
-You need to somehow gain new focus
-Because truth will always shine its' light and scatter lies like locusts
-Sometimes truth is not convenient but face it all the same
-Since the dawn of man our lives never have been tame
-We all owe it to each other to run this complex race
-Take a hand when it is offered and share the burden of your pain
-No one is the author, at least that's how it seems
-There is no rhyme or reason to the morbid and obscene
-But we CAN control our minds to shape how we perceive
-Happiness is our own choice, so breathe deeply and just be
