we can get by
by just pretending it’s alright
we can ride on cruise control
or let the AI be our guide


but it takes a moment to decide
can we settle for the numbness
of the closed off mind
or see a higher perspective
that holds the higher way
of living in this life


we can just get by
til in time
the truth wears out down the lies
and the old way of living
no longer fits what’s deep inside


and then from the ashes
the Phoenix arises
and flies so high
into the brightness of the light


til it returns again to find us
and laugh and smile
at the imaginary life
that once held us captive
til it was time to finally fly


there’s a difference between just getting by
or making more out of your life
so let your heart be open
be inspired
let that soul be your guide
and don’t settle for less
than finding your true purpose in this life
