Our Minds
We will forever be carrying the lamp of redemption
On top of the high seas we utter in silence
That we are the misers the lepers of instinct
We sit through the words of the beaten the battered
The movement will cry out that we have forsaken
The burdens of culture in structure we cry out
We shall listen to those that are thrown in the deep end
We always will be but never to be uttered
Our hearts will be born from the minds of shattered
Forgotten we are through the sound of an echo
So let me be brief be more truthful than white light
You will only see us when you have your eyes closed
We will never be more than what we are in pages
In stages of if, when and then the conclusion
To serve is a cause never to be repeated
And let us be frank we will never be seated
Glory to those that have been solely structured
It matters to them that we look to the learned
Compounded we are but never to be bounded
Yet grounded we be through the minds of the founders
