YOU MUST BE CAUTIOUS, YOU MUST ALWAYS BE LEARNING
YOU MUST TREAD LIGHTLY IN FRONT OF POWERS THAT BE
YOU MUST SEE THE SUN RISE WITH A FEELING OF WONDER
NEVER FORGETTING WHAT IT MEANS TO BE FREE…
AND YOU MUST HAVE COURAGE, YOU MUST BE CURIOUS
YOU MUST TRY ABSORBING ALL THE THINGS THAT YOU SEE
YOU CAN SEARCH FOR A LIFETIME FOR THE MEANING OF ONE WORD
IF YOU WERE TO PICK ONE WORD, THAT WORD SHOULD BE “FREE”…
THERE IS TALK OF COMPASSION, BUT IT HIDES FROM THE HARDENED
AND IT RUNS LIKE A QUARRY FROM A SENSELESS KILL
AND YOU MUST FIND MEANING IN THINGS YOU’VE BEEN IGNORING
AND YOU WILL LEARN LESSONS THAT HELP A SOUL TO BE FREE…
THERE’S TALK OF COMPASSION, BUT IT HIDES FROM THE HARDENED
AND IT RUNS LIKE A QUARRY FROM A SENSELESS KILL
YOU WILL FIND LESSONS FOR THE TEACHING AND THE LEARNING
AND YOU WILL WALK PROUDER CAUSE YOU WILL BE FREE
YOUR EYES WILL BE BRIGHTER CAUSE YOU WILL BE FREE
YOU CAN SEARCH FOR A LIFETIME FOR THE MEANING OF ONE WORD
IF YOU WERE TO PICK ONE WORD, THAT WORD SHOULD BE “FREE”…
