If You Go with the Flow

 
Sure it’s easier if you go with the flow
As I once heard, water is lazy
At first I thought it sounded crazy
Somehow it made sense

And why not, there is strength in numbers
So when the majority have the same mentality
Everything just seems to move better
Movements like that are meant to make life easy

I lost my faith and found it and lost it again and found it and…
So many times
Because in the examples I read and saw
Something wasn’t adding up

Then I realized, a lot of of these beliefs
Were driven by guilt
Some of these religious restrictions
Were meant to keep me subjugated

Later on I understood
Not everything in the water is drinkable
Not all things in the river are friendly
Those jagged rocks are bound to cut
And sometimes the current
Will pull you in
Deep

I found faith again
But with freedom of thought and imagination
