The Doors of Perception

The Doors Of Perception Hollywood portrays the sinner as an actual saint It's reverse psychology at it's best thrown in the mix We perceive choice as a willing license to sin Yet there stands a glimmer of hope a glittering light from above A light to guide a darkened pathway of disbelief The doors of perception swing wide open to the ambiance of the moment Filter through the senses througout a variation in a dream People scream as they equate logic for fear For I shed a single tear to help numb the inner pain An eternal flame vested in the natural light of it's hidden claim We each must participate in the dance in which will bring romance Relax at the wheel where participants claim it's no big deal Shelter lies dormant amidst it's beckoning plough A challenge to be free is a question of time The doors of perception is directly in my brain Some people today are crazy and totally insane Use as an example the spinning wheel in the game of let's make a deal We travel through a course in the middle of our brain lest I refrain Another destination in which the road will change We shall sigh and proclaim it's no big deal yet inside we cry A thought made in the darkness has now been brought to light Never relent in life for pursuing your dreams to ever give up on the fight A chosen few will excel to the next stage of life amidst the danger A certain stranger wears his suit to tight in the middle of the night He chose to hide behind the four walls of certain compromise One word to the wise choose faith to overcome the storms in life The doors of perception are a will of power nothing more in between
