Conscious by The Minstrel Lyrics
Consciousness:
It's something we all have within our heads
It's different based on our experience
And goes to show the lives that we have led
And the boundaries we'll step through
All our souls
Are wrapped around our minds yet we don't know
What happens when we die
Where will we go?
Why am I here alive? I'm so alone, I feel so confined
"It's not about the destination"
That's what they say, and if you look at basic human nature
Nothing at all's the same
My subjective affirmation: Hard work's the only way
Consider taking a vacation? I don't intend to laze
My one and only aspiration: To make my music slay
To try and maintain an ovation is why I'm here to stay
I thrive inside realms of creation, and sometimes tend to stray
Away from people's conversations to where my mind's at bay
I think, therefore, I am
Creation is here within my hands
I think, therefore, I am
A part of only my master plan
I think, therefore I am Conscious
I think, therefore, I'm here
Consciousness:
Why everybody has a preference
How only few can make a difference
And what creates the path to ignorance
Establish a set a roles
We all find
Things in life we refuse to leave behind
Ideas that we choose to stand beside
Mold ourselves and continue to refine
The rules that we follow
We're all here on a big adventure within the tides of change
Experience will make us richer, and things become less strange
To become part of something larger: Thoughts I should entertain
Seclusion seems to be much smarter, until I feel caged
Embrace the chaos and endeavor, and you will seize the day
Development comes from eachother to help you find the way
Genetics is what makes us prosper, that's why no one's the same
Our differences, they give us power
It's why these wars are waged
I think, therefore, I am
Creation is here within my hands
I think, therefore, I am
A part of only my master plan
I think, therefore, I am conscious
I think, therefore, I'm here
Consciousness: The reason why I seek intelligence
And try to share the wisdom with my friends
Make my means try to justify my ends
Keep moving on my way
All my life
Was spent trying to fight imagined strife
Attempting to turn darkness into light
Only to find that none of that was right
We all live in the grey
I am the Minstrel, hear my stories on how I see the world
I'm not here for a greater glory, just want to share my words
I'll say what I want, I'm not sorry, but I won't be absurd
The things I say are not priory, it's knowledge that I yearn
The time we have, it's not that long, so try and spend it well
The purpose we have, it's not wrong
Just sometimes hard to tell
I'll tell you mine, the gift of song, so you will hear me yell
Now it is your time to stand strong
Quit hiding in your shell
I think, therefore, I am
Creation is here within my hands
I think, therefore, I am
A part of only my master plan
I think, therefore, I am conscious
I think, therefore, I'm here
It's something we all have within our heads
It's different based on our experience
And goes to show the lives that we have led
And the boundaries we'll step through
All our souls
Are wrapped around our minds yet we don't know
What happens when we die
Where will we go?
Why am I here alive? I'm so alone, I feel so confined
