Don'T Be Slave To Your Mind

Don't be Slave to your mind Don't be Slave to your mind Alluring and Appealing , the desires are Desires will play when the mind is away Make you fall in the Blind Don't be Slave to your mind Don't be Slave to your mind Illusion stairs and trackless roads there are leading you down the garden path In a great ditch of blind fall Don't be Slave to your mind Don't be Slave to your mind Empty promises from the empty vessel It's like, in the air, building a Castle Reason is dying, leaving empty mind behind Don't be Slave to your mind Don't be Slave to your mind Luring to heart, alluring to mind Desires will unnerve you in a bit of a bind Doing away with it , a challenge to mankind Don't be Slave to your mind Don't be Slave to your mind Letting your reason drive your heart and soul, will make the world under you as a whole Don't let others control your heart and mind Don't be Slave to your mind

The heart is so much more important . Though the mind plays a roll, the heart tells the mind where to go,
