V1 I remember when life began, back on an outstretch of fears/ All the people I’ve known met and loved through my twenty-odd years/ The peers that put pressure; backstabbers and lesser types of human beings I was seeing/ I never thought I’d get old one day/ Or ever think that I would say, “Let the children play”/ But when the innocence is over, time will surely tell/ If love exists or the reality of living was just a spell/ Swell were the days of adolescence/ The time we spent together felt like only twenty seconds/ But, I never knew how personalities changed/ And learned that pain was just a way to know that things never stay the same/ I guess it’s hard to except the way life goes I figure that’s why they say Philosophy Heals the Soul.
V2 Positive influences were difficult to receive/ So I separate different folks for different needs/ I wish I knew then What I know now/ So I could separate which friends were true and which were foul/ Too many people never knew me from the outside/ What made them think that they could know me from the inside?/ But there’s no doubt in my mind, that your mind is in time with mine/ A diamond’s life is eternal, together we philosophize for the soul.
It’s life and pain. It’s love and abstraction. It’s beauty and hate. And vice-versa.
V3 Minutes make memories, and you only live once/ So you’d best to make your memories before the days and months do/ I’ve made to many mistakes but were they worth the time it took to mend the effects in the end?/ Now I take life slow, so that I don’t make the same mistakes…/ Think careful and avoid the road of heartbreaks/ Cause those were tribulating times/ Rejected and neglected when I was wasn’t writing rhymes/ Too many judgments have been passed down/ From the days of straight A’s to when I was the class clown/ My first love in the summer of fantasy/ And seeing things that were too much for a man to see/ Being this figure so unsure I was glad to be/ But never let dark clouds ever badger me/ It’s so uncanny how the world wants to pass me by/ While I’m undermining all these things that make me wonder why/ I want to reverse time ‘n go live in the past/ And praying that this time just wouldn’t be like the last/ I always ask myself the same questions…/ Over and Over, I find myself guessin’/ But, the puzzle seems to double when the answer’s no/ I guess that’s why they say Philosophy Heals the Soul.
