lyrics

You wander aimlessly
But are you really wandering?
You contemplate
You hit a point where the circles
The loops
That triggers that fuel your mind
Are fuelling your being in time

Your fuel
Your drive
Is poisoned
We are poisoned
We are programmed
Into the poison
Lets rid ourself
Of this pollution

Its simple
Do the steps with me
Close your eyes
Lets wander now
Wander, the way we are meant to be

Because if life
Is of learning
Knowledge
Memories
And the journey
Then heaven
Is on earth
Before us
We are here for the burdens
The twists and turns
Its rising and fall

You realise
Whats really behind your eyes
Your being
Is your mind
You hold the controller
It is now time to flip it over

Ditch what you feel
What are you propelled to do
And chase
Feed
And grow
Into something new

Change is not a crime
Change is what we need to crave
Through time

The steps are simple
Simplify
Gratitude
Balance
Let go
Its all what you choose
Nothing to do with what Ive said
What you’ve read

Deliberate distraction
By way of spontaneous movement
Will arrest the flow
Of negative thoughts

be perpetually present
do not selectively summon
the pollution
the poison
rise above
this wasteland
Summon plentiful mindfulness

Your light
Your flame
Like a firefly
Youll shine
If you do so
Its contagious
I promise
Its worthwhile
All in good time

For what you feed will grow
Its time to clean it up
Plan
A well thought outcome
What you eat
What you see
What you hear
What you focus and dream
What are truly feeding on ?

Breathe in with me now
Deeper in
Deeper out
Trust it is coming
Chip away
At a better you
each and every day
Your time
Is simply now
