Mutiny of the Mind
Mutiny Of The Mind
Did You Eva Stop to Think
What about tomorrow
What is really on the other-side of today?
Should I force myself to go along
When my insides tell me, things are wrong.?
Did You Eva Stop to Think
Could my life had gone a different way,
If I’d chosen a different route?
I think I could have took another stance
Against injustices and Brutality.
One day I thought, and realized
My thoughts were never really my own
That day I vowed to think my thoughts
Speak my words, in my own tone;
Stop and think while being alone.
I will Listen to that still small voice;
That will guide me to that perfect light.
If I Ignore my deep-down gut
My inner-voice, will yank my heart
I really had to stop and
think - What about eternity.
did you ever stop to think,
what about forever.?
Not religion nor popular opinions
Nor culture or traditions
Neither the number of votes,
Nor the amount temptations wealth.
Can ever again make me feel right
About doubting myself.
Did you ever stop to think;
That people who cause mind mutiny;
Mind your business well.
As if they have you under scrutiny,
And want you beneath their spell.
Did you ever stop to think?
Your life requires your participation.
Without participating in your own life
Where then will your soul go.?
Flesh rots: Hearts keep records,
Bones slowly decay and sink.
Before the soul flies away...
A hue-man can always change his ways;
Man, must secure himself against negativity.
Before he reaches the brink.
If only, he meditates awhile and
Seriously stops and thinks.!
