Simple As This
I been in search of stonesMaking up the pavementof less traveled roadsMining for treasure deep in my bonesThat I never found
Went looking for reverenceTried to find it in a bottleCame back againHigh on a hashpipe of good intentBut it only brought me down
Tried institutions of the mind and soulIt only taught me what I should not knowOh the answer wellWho would have guessedCould be something as simple as this,Something as simple as this?
Traveled to each oceans endSaw all 7 wonders,Trying to make some senseMemorized the mantra confucius saidBut it only let me down
Tried absolution of the mind and soulIt only led me where I should not goOh and the answer well,How could I missSomething as simple as this?Something as simple as this?
I've been falling crashing breakingAnd all the while you wereStood here waitingFor me girl
Tried liberation of my own free willBut it left me looking to get higher stillOh and the answer wellwho could have guessedcould be something as simple as this?God knows how I could have missedSomething as simple as this
