Intelligence
I truly believe that intelligence must come first
That it is for vast knowledge you should thirst
I want to see the quickness in your eye
As you let all the ideas in your mind loose to fly
I want to argue and toss ideas about
Don't matter we argue a bit and shout
As it is for knowledge I implore
And I want my ideas strait for sure
I want to stop hiding behind alcohol, gossip and strife
And all the mass media hype of life
The petty talk that makes my mind go numb
Sitting lost and content just, to be dumb
I want to live where my mind expands
With the history and lessons from so many lands
As science changes our beliefs day to day
I want to know I analyzed it not just my own way
I want to see as culture changes and molds the minds
As new reality is created with discoveries of all kinds
But as we get to know more and more
As the past becomes nothing but a bore
With our job, diploma or degree
Are our minds really that free?
What has humanity really learnt
As every generation gets more burnt
We fail to understand even ourselves
Ideas and dreams packed away on shelves
In a world racing with info and technology
Soon it'll just be the reading of our eulogy
So what could we really achieve?
If we could truly in us believe
Get to know our own benevolence
And know the power of true intelligence.
