Take a pill
Take a pill
Cure my ignorance
Open up possibilities
Lands to see
People to meet
Cultures to greet and embrace
Head in the sand
Is not who I am
Or who you should be
Curious wonder
Not going down rabbit holes
Look to find a common seed
Ignorance be death of me
Mind is an empty vessel
Waiting to be filled up with knowing
All around you is beauty
Of unvisited horizons
The path of knowledge
Isn’t a straight line
Dead end of denial
I want to know what’s going on
Not an ostrich I’ll find the truth
Living within all of us
46 chromosomes equals humanity
But if you give up 45
To go down a rabbit hole
What does that make you
Less than Human
Or even cro maga man
Knuckles have been off the ground
For thousands of years
Now we are going back to
Stone chisels and granite
Sorry but I didn’t sign up
For this assignment
I’m living a Jetson dream
Spacely is not my boss
Flying cars and hoverboards
If I have to live with technology
Better make my life better
Not going back to sharpening iron
Or living in the last world
I’m a forward looking man
I have technology
Why would I go back to
Sparking fire with two stones
Culture warriors with popsicle sticks
Culture warriors with popsicles
Turn into a puddle of lies
Cure my ignorance
Open up possibilities
Lands to see
People to meet
Cultures to greet and embrace
Head in the sand
Is not who I am
Or who you should be
Curious wonder
Not going down rabbit holes
Look to find a common seed
Ignorance be death of me
Mind is an empty vessel
Waiting to be filled up with knowing
All around you is beauty
Of unvisited horizons
The path of knowledge
Isn’t a straight line
Dead end of denial
I want to know what’s going on
Not an ostrich I’ll find the truth
Living within all of us
46 chromosomes equals humanity
But if you give up 45
To go down a rabbit hole
