Verse 1:
Freedom from the debt of ignorance is bliss
Without it life's joys pale and remiss
A fortune left unspent and untold
A mind discarded and to the peddler; sold
Happiness is born on the wings of a kiss
Take heed of the lesson so many dismiss
When thinking and speaking, always be bold
Lest d**h take your heart while it beats; cold
Chorus:
Make no mistake, the price for complacency is dire
For without pa**ion: all aspirations fire
But time surely waits for NO men
Instead it strangles those without a plan
Verse 2:
Chains burden and restrict while ropes chafe and bind
When living in a world where thoughts are confined
For an era and a day, I have paid this toll
Lacking in any design, destination, or goal
Let imagination and inspiration guide your mind
To places of serenity and focus where you shall find
A world of inside, guided by the depths of your soul
Where thoughts become realities and the mind becomes whole
Chorus:
Make no mistake, the price for complacency is dire
For without pa**ion: all aspirations fire
But time surely waits for NO men
Instead it strangles those without a plan
Outro:
I've lived for so long in the darkness of the mire
Too afraid to climb the steps of that great spire
With courage into the battle I finally ran
And thus this epic journey began...
