And I’m walking in the city of light
\nAnd I’m wondering who is so bright
\nThere better be an eagle in my sight
\nAnd I don’t know care, and I don’t know where<\/p>\n
I was talking to my buddy of light
\nIt was an angel I can tell you in hindsight
\nIt took me days before the real landslide
\nCollapsed my meaning of the matter but was oh so right<\/p>\n
Tell me do you think you have free will
\nOr is it destiny, your only heavenly pill
\nBe a whale in the ocean, choice is chill
\nBut be honest with your life when it is run-of-the-mill<\/p>\n
Are you free to choose your actions when
\nA two thousand pound bull charges from his den
\nTo your next of kin with an axe to pin
\nThat sucker on the strand committing a sin<\/p>\n
Or when you know the consequence
\nTough by culture, religion, friends or parents
\nCause and effect then get intertwined
\nDe facto meaning you have no say, do you mind?<\/p>\n
And I’m walking in the city of light
\nAnd I’m wondering who is so bright
\nThere better be an eagle in my sight
\nAnd I don’t know care, and I don’t know where<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I’m inclined to always do bad things
\nBut it starts as pleasure, then it takes on wings
\nCompelling me beyond return
\nAnd I execute my thoughts but then I start to churn<\/p>\n
Actions always start unconsciously
\nThen the ego steps in and I think it’s me
\nHow can I discern the truth
\nWhen all I do is label it, I package sooth<\/p>\n
I can leave the drivers seat
\nBecause life will find its way, cool and sweat
\nI want to escape the hormonal con
\nWithout my conscious choices the world still will move on<\/p>\n
Emotional reaction, mastered so young
\nI’m just tasting life through my pineal tongue
\nI am not my identity
\nI can choose to live my life in serenity<\/p>\n
And I’m walking in the city of light
\nAnd I’m wondering who is so bright
\nThere better be an eagle in my sight
\nAnd I don’t know care, and I don’t know where<\/p>\n
And I’m walking in the city of light
