Lyrics: The Four Absolutes, My Life
The Four Absolutes
Belief in the true or false
Which one shall it be?
To live in the real, not fake
Practice honesty
To ask is it right or wrong
Which one shall it be?
Run from the wrong; that's right
And walk with purity
CHORUS
Honesty, purity, unselfishness and love
Honesty, purity, unselfishness and love
Our words carry power
They can cut or they can calm
By living unselfishly
Less likely we'll cause harm
Ugly and beautiful
Created from above
When served with judgement
Garnish it with love
CHORUS
Life is all movement
One foot past the next
Void of direction
Not knowing what to expect
I surrender for guidance
Not worried, scared nor vexed
With trust in the power
Of my spiritual G.P.S.
Spiritual guidance
Not knowing what to expect
Spiritual guidance
Trusting what comes next
Spiritual guidance
Speaking from within
Born of discipline
My Life
Take anything you want from me
But leave me with my destiny
To be the best man that I can be
Go away with your judgement ways
Of the things that I did yesterday
That's not the way I live my life today
VERSE
There were days that I was homeless
Many times I was alone
There were days when it was hell inside
Completely abandoned and disowned
Take anything you want from me
Just leave me with my destiny
To be the best man that I can be
Go away with your judging ways
About things that I did yesterday
That's not the way I live my life today
VERSE
There were times I was dishonest
There were days I'd steal from you
And there were times when I was dope sick too
Begging for poison to keep me cool
La dee da da...la dee da dee da da
That's not the way I live my life to day
La dee da da....la dee da dee da da
It's not the way I live my life today
VERSE
An inner hunger keeps me searching
A mystic yearning feeds my soul
An incredible feeling when I just let go
And accept its will and love for me
Take anything you want from me
Just leave me with my destiny
To be the best man that I can be
Go away with your judging ways
About things that I did yesterday
That's not the way I live my life today
Take anything you want from me
Just leave me with my destiny
To be the best man that I can be
Go away with your fantasy
About the way you think it ought to be
That's not the way I live my life today
La dee da da.....
