Excuse me sister
Can I whisper
A little truth in your ear?
It’s no mystery
Through history
All the signs are clear
Times are so whack
Dogs on Prozac
Everyone feels under
False depression
Learn a lesson
The devil’s got your number
The war’s adjacent
But you’re complacent
It’s just another channel
So just turn the station
And keep erasin’
Pain you can’t dismantle
Sometimes I wanna fly,
Far away!
And then I pray
Oh let me stay!
Another day (2x)
Excuse me Mister
Can I whisper
A little truth in your ear?
It’s no mystery
Through history
All the signs are clear
More energy drinks
To speed the jinx
Of a life you can’t control
Going to and from
While you feel so numb
But you think you’re on a roll
A brand new diet
You got to try it
Cuz everyone’s so thin
Put down that mag
And grab a rag
And wipe this mess you’re in!
Sometimes I wanna fly,
Far away!
And then I pray
Oh let me stay!
Another day (2x)
Excuse me people
There’s no sequel
We’ve only got one chance
To get it right
And win this fight
So check your circumstance!
You got internet
And a cell phone pet
But we’re all disconnected
You hear the preachers
And sacred teachers
But no one gets affected
Don’t let terrorism
Be the schism
For all humanity
Bring the proofs
When you report the “truth”
And restore the sanity
Sometimes I wanna fly,
Far away!
And then I pray
Oh let me stay!
Another day (2x)
There are many excellent reminders contained within this beautiful prose, describing the challenges and distractions of our current time - the primary cause of which is heedlessness and inactivity of our God-given intellect to ponder upon the Truth.
May we always be guided to be among those who reflect upon their lives, and those who strive to better their states.
