FreddeGredde - The Autotelic Self lyrics

a world full of burdens and other sheer distractions can alter the mind so that we're no longer free confronted by permanent stress and false attractions we cannot enjoy our lives the full degree living in faulty sanity in our new world it's easy to get so bewitched by ads to be good-looking, wealthy and powerful we all have the opportunity to be imaginative but false desires can cloud our mind we're becoming mindless puppets living in a cage of burdens this attendance turning into dependence it's so hard to keep sane living behind lock and chain we are becoming mindless zombies living in a cage of burdens this attendance turning into dependence it's so hard to keep sane when our lives are spent in vain falling down into pieces when you realize you've removed from all the power and motivation now you see it's nothing but deceit and you feel disillusion how could you have reason to stay here? will your world be this way forever? now it's all off-beat do I have to surrender to this place where nothing has meaning? only my broken mind protects me in a life with nothing to believe thinking of new solutions to achieve my own absolution can I live in my own new dreamworld? should I self-deceive? know thyself, don't let them dictate all the choices for your own fate keep your objective all the way and your mind will be made every day being curious, no disguise, even threats lead to brighter skies your design you can choose to build play the game and you'll see them fulfilled (distractions! panic!) (leading to failures!) random thoughts are clouding my mind abandoned faith giving up attention so fast confused about whether I will reach my intent I'm lost in doubt raise your consciousness to perceive the awareness you can achieve gain control of your universe learning patience in all things diverse sense the mastery of your fate takes a while to grow and translate see the chances to climb new hills where the challenge is matched by the sk**s (frustration! boredom!) (trial and error!) it will be a long way to go no cutting through for the journey's transforming you will you proceed? only if you try very hard will you succeed feeling totally focused now though unable to explain how being carried on by the flow staying peaceful inside of its glow see that nothing else matters now all your worries you disallow living life in its purest form far removed from the volatile norm self-transcendence commitment, independence and flow an optimal experience enhancing your resilience reaching the perfect harmony
