I live by my ego
it’s how I, mine, and me go
and if you cause a stink, I’ll get vicious
See, I’ve got a small range
in a realm full of strange
when my mind starts to think, I’m suspicious
If I hear the ‘wrong’ word
things gon’ get fast absurd
‘specially if you make ‘that’ facial expression
I’ll deduce what it means
‘cause I’ll pluck from the ‘scenes’
what I’ve stored up from all my ‘life’ sessions
Lest I hear a small Voice
whisperin’ in through the noise
telling me that it’s all an illusion
Sayin' the pain that I feel
never ever was ‘real’
just a deluge of dreamy confusion
If I’ll give it all up
no more pulls from that cup
my ‘damned’ ego will fade in the mirror
Then true peace will rush in
reminding me who I am
and I’ll wake up to Beauty forever
