Bad Faith

My peace is a storm that rages in my mind
Trapped in a manufactured maze of society's design
We must take heed of the call that dwells within
The clarion that beckons us toward seeking true enlightenment

The search for answers in a world that offers none
Eschew society's pressures and confusions
Your gut is an apostle; listen to the gospel

We all know what's inside
The candle of veracity, the true path of our lives
We all know it can't be ignored
The drive to live as our best selves, to search for something pure
In our hearts the only scripture; the obstacle is our mind

The lighthouse of our souls signals our exaltations
Buried beneath the hubris of others' expectations

Negative ecstasy demands that we
Acknowledge in epiphanic moments of anxious clarity
Existence precedes essence
Take control of your happiness

We all know what's inside
The candle of veracity, the true path of our lives
We all know it can't be ignored
The drive to live as our best selves, to search for something pure
In our hearts the only scripture; the obstacle is our mind

To finally get some semblance of peace is merely to decide
