Thanks for listening and have a great day!

Here are some rhymes I wrote about subjecting your own beliefs to examination, free thinking and generally being a cool guy.

Here are the lyrics: 

to be architect of your own life
to have your values clearly defined
to take to your soul with a knife
and trim any fat that you find



if you could forget everything you'd ever known
everything to which you'd ever been exposed
if you were made again, would your beliefs stay the same,
or would they be drastically changed?

you probably have some beliefs change with evidence
some change like the wind, and some are vestiges
but some of them when mentioned hmm
you'd rather die than question

and if someone does, you get offended
take exception, too much ego invested


lions can be held by whips and a cage
but it takes an idea for a man to be enslaved
the question is: who is to be master
shall your beliefs lead and you follow after?

if an idea tells you what you can and can't know
where your mind can and cannot go
which belief systems are prohibited zones,
are you a human or a drone


it's a difficult thing to live morally
consistent with your own philosophy
most people do the opposite of that
impulsively act, and justify after the fact


it takes courage to live a life not dictated
by a model of the world someone else created
make your own decisions, a being in your own right
responsible for your experience of life

but you'll suck the pap and spit out the pips
once you've had the taste of freedom on your lips
you would give your life to be free
can't live on your knees, you would die on your feet





to be architect of your own life
to have your values clearly defined
to take to your soul with a knife
and trim any fat that you find
it's something else
to be architect of your own life
to have your values clearly defined
to take to your soul with a knife
and trim any fat that you find
