Focus and Balance
It's hard to stay focused
If your mind is never still
You'll never find your inner peace
If you don't meditate on your will
The will to practice with your whole being
You will never find the balance
To be authentic in your living
You'll just be living by the domesticated rules
That from you were carefully conditioned within you
That offer up your compliance
Simply to follow and not to be
The potential individual, amazingly unique
Achieving all your hopes
And living out your dreams
You will simply end up another zombie of this illusory society
Fodder for the workhouse
Fodder for their wars
Living by the trickle down theory
Eating the scraps discarded onto the floor
Of the table from which the rich eat
And where we sit begging for more
Break out of this conditioning and live by your own laws
And existential being that defines your own cause.
