Man Versus Man

I haven't lit any candles

I don't have insurance and

I can't afford my house to burn down

I shouldn't be having ham sandwich,

since it's a religious holiday

But what else can you buy with three bucks

until the next payday

I know that the most proper thing would be

to kneel and pray correctly

But I don't know the right words

I have tried to read the Bible

but I don't know what most words mean

And I get frustrated looking in dictionaries

for the true concept of faith

Ages and my own age, a world trying hard

to make me accept my fate

[chorus]

" Do Not let them suffocate us!"

" Do Not let them blind us!"

" Do Not let them win us over!"

" Oh, please, do not!"

" Do Not let them put us against You!"

" Do Not let us be our self-destructing warriors!"

" Do Not let them makes us fools!"

" Oh, please, I beg You. Do Not!"

[/chorus]

Children, eternal children in their forever

lasting ignorance

But they are children, only children playing

of being women and men.

We'll never reach adulthood, we'll never grow up

to be what we could be

We're only children, what can be a hundred years

compared to eternity?

Do Not raise your own swords against you!

Do Not cut flowers before they bloom!

Do Not aspire the limit if you already

have a concept of limit so soon!

Do Not plan a fade out for the story

when History teaches you it only begins!

Do Not seek essence in your modern tales,

essence can't be shown on screens!

You have a very wrong vague idea of what

Love could truly be!

Remember you don't know your image and you

don't know it's immensity!

Quit capturing Love's meaning in the desires for

which it isn't needed.

Love is not to be felt, is not to be given,

nor to be looked for!

Love is what you are not, Love is what you should be!

Love is what you will be when you arrive to the shore.

When you know, when you learn to accept your true Identity.
