Reflections

[Zen]

I feel disassociated
From my natural state
Mentally constipated
Above my empty plate

I've got nothin to do
Watchin it all fall down
and twirl around
and spin around
and loop around
just to drop and hit the ground

It was so profound
The way I wanted to drown
And free myself from this melancholy mockery
Of life which was supposedly meant to be
A tapestry of harmony and melody
So pardon me if I decide to disagree
with this piece o' philosophy on this whole reality
because reality is shit.

But then I kick back and reflect
On all the people I know in my life
And realize I'm not just an insect
Not just another knick on the edge of the knife

There's a reason we're here
But because it ain't clear
We have a reason to fear
The dark and mirky smear
Over the eyes and ears
Of the people far and near

Let me light the guiding light
To pierce the choking smog
And clear this blinding fog
And elevate you all
To this shining pedestal

Open your eyes and step into the dark
Grab hold of the hands close to your soul
Make that broken hearted smile, a whole
And then you'll understand
About the master plan
That no one comprehends
So just discuss it with your friends
When you fire up your joint
And I know you'll see my point
