Think
There is no simple way to convey the beauty of the idea of thought
Thinking is an action all of us can do
Though many times people don’t think very much
And of course, what a waste,
To be able to think
and to spend all that time
Mentally spaced
You are useless
if you aren't giving thought to what you say,
To what you feel,
To what you believe.
No crazy person has thoughts like yours
But I’m certain he has better thoughts than yours
Would you think that when a mind snaps like that
That it thinks a bit clearer?
No Lines, No Boundaries
Free Reign
Past the constraints of
This thing,
"We have rules!
This is what you should know,
This is how you should think,
This is what you must believe in."
I'm past that
Here I am
Outside looking in at these foolish people
Constrained by society and not thinking about anything useful
Just Sex, Drugs, and Dubstep.
Ignoring new ideas, “Business as usual."
These people waste their lives, waiting for something bigger than they to come down and help them.
There is no bigger.
There is only us.
We motivate ourselves to do what we must.
Those who put meaning into their lives from a simple disguise
For power
Are not thinking
They do not see
That people are people, and shall always be,
Different than you, nothing that we
Understand.
“I know that I hung on a windy tree
nine long nights,
wounded with a spear, dedicated to Odin,
myself to myself,
on that tree of which no man knows
from where its roots run.
No bread did they give me nor a drink from a horn,
downwards I peered;
I took up the runes, screaming I took them,
then I fell back from there."
The knowledge I have is my own.
Do I share it with thee?
No.
You have not made yourself worthy.
Go on with your simple lives
Or think, for once, in them.
About them.
Go on.
