As the ships travel over the seas
And plains travel the sky's with the greatest of ease
Thoughts come at us from where we don't know
All to bring us desires from our heart as they flow
Desires for things we really don't need
But in our heart there is this greed
A greed to always find some joy
No matter the cost girl or boy
Always seeking pleasure of some kind
Looking for it totally blind
Blind to how we treat each other 
Only wanting pleasure in one form or another
Hidden deep with in the heart
Is this point where a new life starts
This place where we find
How to each other to be truly kind
Kind like a mother to her child 
Not a pleasure seeking kind where we go wild
With love for our fellow man 
Instead of using him every way we can
Compassion for their aches and pains 
With out a thought of what I can gain
It's here it's now it's with in our grasp
It is the only thing that will last
To love the others like you love yourself
Is the kind love worth being felt


Time is short and the day is long
Do you know where you belong
The night goes on never ending 
Have you figured out how your pretending
Pretending to be this or that
All so you can wear that joy filled hat
But when the hat no longer has joy
You kick it to the curb like a worn out toy
That's not a problem until you look and see 
It's how you treat others including me
If we change how we treat each other right now today
All the crisis in this world would simply go away
But something hides this from our face 
Disguising it behind this thing called grace
Not letting is see at every turn
It is only self love that we yearn
So look deep within your heart
And see how the ego makes it's start
Bringing you desires you really don't need
All for instant pleasure based out of greed
Look even deeper and you will see deep within
The simple truth is there is none else besides him
