Moments

by Chords of Truth

When I was a young man
absorbing this world
A fork emerged in the road
What I thought I knew
did not ring true
My faith was distorting my view

The story I’d heard
seemed simple and absurd
I pondered how far it could go
And as the wind blows
thoughts arose
The questions started to flow

Could it be that one man died
For everybody’s sins
Or we all are ruled by aliens

And they have our souls
trapped on earth
To keep us as their slaves
Or is it that consciousness just ends

It could be more complex than
We can ever fantasize
Or life comes from one source

But you know many times we think
that we have it all figured out,
We find we were wrong
from square one

I’ve found one universal truth is that
Between every thought
Are infinite possibilities

In each instant you decide
The way that life proceeds
So you can create or destroy

If you want to capitalize
on this experience
Observe what is happening right now

Cause the only moment that exists
Just slipped into the past
So don’t just let another pass you by
