Reincarnation

We're all climbing the stairs to the big house in the sky
It's where we all go when we eventually die
Oh so they say, those that believe in the gospels that are written in the great book
You see, I don't believe in this heaven and hell and I gave death another look

I did some meditation which opened my third eye
And I realised this book was about control...and was just pie in the sky
I thought to myself, why worry about dying while you're still trying to live
Why concern yourself with death when you've still got love to give 

I care less for this book and live life to the full 
Because following this religion to me just seems...well, rather dull
Because when times up and the end is here...
It's time to embrace death, time to party time to cheer
As you've ended this experience...this life
And another will begin,
As it all starts the same just in different skin
But before that happens you go back to whence you came
You hover about in the energy pool and wait till they restart the game

This to me is reincarnation

This to me is the truth
