Adam & Eve - the Offspring

Is it the amount of money you make? Or maybe the job you do as a parent Is the amount of care you generate? Towards neighborly lives transparent Is it the amount of good you do? While searching for life’s definition Is it the dreams you helped come true? Seeking no gratitude or recognition Is it a blessed talent you exploit? Creating art which leads to wealth Is it to outsmart, to fill a void? Deceiving con while stripping health from the core existence of mankind Where plowing earth serves as main source of life and death and crafted minds Banished from Eden, stay the course but choose the path less traveled by Direct and lift your wind-filled sail Dock in the port of paradise Set eyes upon the Holy Grail Direct your compass, follow light Reach your desired destination Tread gently on sweet dreams at night And end your quest in jubilation Brothers and sisters of the world One question asked, so answer true Join hands, unite each boy and girl Pronounce to all what defines you
