EIGHT BILLION/ONE

Part 1-EIGHT BILLION

Whats real

And what’s just me

And what’s just me

What’s just my blindness

What’s just my sin

Whats real

And what’s just me

And what’s just me

What’s just my blindness

What’s just my sin

********************************

I only have two eyes

I only see my own thoughts

I only know the world

Through myself

And I didn’t question it

And I didn’t question it

And I didn’t question it

It was confirmed by the eye

It was confirmed by the hand

It was confirmed by the other eyes

And other hands

So I didn’t question it

And I didn’t question it

And I didn’t question it

Then the weight of perception grew

Past the eye

And the hand

It went to the mind

So I developed my snap judgments

So I developed my snap judgments

So I developed my snap judgments

Till I forgot they were even there

******************************

I thought I was smarter

I thought I alone can see

In a world with out eyes

Oh its me vs. eight billion

So when it was questioned

When they disagreed

They were wrong

They were wrong

Oh it’s me vs. eight billion

The world waited

The world waited for me

To know it self

Till I defined it

The world waited

The world waited

But was It all in my head

I was the prophet of taste

But no one was aware

They were wrong

They were wrong

Oh its me vs. eight billion

I was proud of my perspective

Though it was never shared

Who is sane

Who is sane

Oh its me the definer of the world

****************************

But the times that I’ve been wrong

Are starting to add up

I’ve misjudged so many humans

I’ve believed all kinds of lies

And it wears away

It wears away

It wears away

It wears away

How much I trust myself

So now I’m questioning

*****************************

Whats real

And what’s just me

And what’s just me

What’s just my blindness

What’s just my sin

Whats real

And what’s just me

And what’s just me

What’s just my blindness

What’s just my sin

Part 2-One

Now it’s clear

Now I can see

It was mostly me

It was mostly my own beliefs

Wrapped around

Something real

And I’m so relieved

And I’m so relieved

And I’m so relieved

Because I made an awful world

And now I pray

Oh thank God

The things I made

Were never real

It was only

Just a fantasy

All my judgements

Were only me

Oh thank God

The things I made

Were never real

Because what I made

Was brokeness

What I made

Was brokeness

***************************

Now that I know

And I can see

I can’t escape my filter

Now that I know

And I believe

My perception is broken

Now that I know

I’m controlled by context

Now that I’ve grown

I don’t trust my self like I did

Now that I know

And I can see

All I have is relative

Now that it’s clear

I don’t believe

That we can be objective

My awareness grown

I am one of eight billion

Now that I know

I’m asking who is the one

****************************

Who is beyond perspective

Who knows the context

Who knows what could have been

Who is free of culture

Who can define words

Who has the language to explain

Who is the worthy judge

Who is the witness

Who can separate the light from the dark

Who has the right to define

Who has the right

Who is the One

Who is the One

Who has the right to define

Who has the right

Who is the One

Who is the One

***************************

There is only one

There is only one

With the right to define

And his vision is truth (x eight billion)
