A Settled Mind
People say you have to give up
chasing after assets
to find your way to God
to find your peace within
Not true
it's nice to have your own home
it's good to work hard
and prove yourself
Hard workers build your home's
hard worker provide your cloth's
It's easy to talk and sit on your butt
when people pay you to talk
but you can find peace in your home
you can find love and success
you can be proud of yourself
from helping others succeed
granted if you slave for money
and build it up high on your list
you are a victim to greed son
perhaps it is time then to ditch
but peace come's to minds
that find answers
learn they with pride then to talk
peace comes to minds that have answers
when settled they find their beliefs
I'm sure that my mind has found comfort
it now is not searching for truth
I'm happy with what I have found now
I do not have questions I seek
My mind does not go
round and round now
I do not have questions I seek
yet truly I don't regret looking
I don't regret thinking to much
my mind found the truth in those session's
and now I'm at peace with myself.
