I think we need a facelift
Or maybe a mind drift
Just about anything
To make our perception shift.
We’ve looked from this standpoint for too long
Is it likely, maybe, that we’ve been seeing things wrong?
I ask, I know you inquire along.
The mind of a man- his greatest arsenal
Even God warns against it being carnal:
Void of Worldly philosophies
Distorted mentalities
Gross idiocies
A certain avalanche of anomalies
They say it’s the way it’s always done
So you gullibly follow, then crash and burn
This life, they say, is turn by turn
So you limit yourself like a sorry pawn
They think for you, you have no opinion
The popular road is the path you’re always on
And after all’s been said and done
You wonder where the many years have gone.
Be transformed by the renewing
Of none other than your mind’s thinking
That was the bible expressly speaking
And I do hope we’re actively heeding
Guard your hearts with every diligence
Guard your eyes and ears is my insistence
Doorways to the inner store house of our existence
To live differently, you’ve got to think with a difference
This, my friend, is my six pence.
