Mantra

Verse 1:
When my thoughts race, faster than the light,
And the ego whispers: "You can't win this fight."
When anger or fear ignite a flame within,
I've been caught in thoughts or feelings once again.
Pre-Chorus:
And when it's the noise that beats inside,
It's the silence that carries me, open and wide.
It is the nothing, the quiet being,
A space where I am truly free – All-seeing.
Chorus:
I let go of the urge to be this or that,
To give meaning to forms that keep me trapped.
In the stillness, the Now holds all my weight,
No doing, no seeking – just pure light, innate.
Verse 2:
When I can't find something, and anger takes hold,
I see it's the wanting and having that unfold.
Impatience is a shadow chasing me fast,
Yet in the space of nothing, all is vast.
Pre-Chorus:
And when it's the noise that beats inside,
It's the stillness that carries me, open and wide.
It is the nothing, not the desperate act,
Where anger, haste, and fear retract.
Chorus:
I let go of the urge to be this or that,
To give meaning to forms that keep me trapped.
In the stillness, the Now holds all my weight,
No doing, no seeking – just pure light, innate.
Bridge:
You anger me – but only for a while,
Then I see your essence, beyond the fragile style.
Behind the form, you’re just like me,
A spark of life, light flowing free.
Chorus:
I let go of the urge to be this or that,
To give meaning to forms that keep me trapped.
In the stillness, the Now holds all my weight,
No doing, no seeking – just pure light, innate.
Outro:
When I lose myself in striving and goals,
I remember that true emptiness restores my soul.
Just breathing, just seeing, being here and now,
Then the "more" dissolves – all becomes pure somehow.
