I know how it feels
When you can barely hold on
You start to slip
And all hope is gone

Feeling suffocated
Buried in this tomb
Trapped by karma
When we leave the womb

Bound by the actions
That we take in life
How can we learn
To end our strife

Plagued by suffering
Doom and despair
As the chains of life
Whip us bare

Destroying the anger
You hold inside
By beating you down
And destroying your pride

Until you learn to serve
With a loving heart
You will be shown
How to play your part

By bowing your head
With love and grace
You will learn to transcend
Time and space

So that you can rise above
This worldly form
Find the truth within
And defy the norm

You came here to express
What it means to be divine
Embrace your gifts
And let yourself shine

Then you’ll release
Your bondage to this world
Through the light you’ll witness
The mystery unfurled
