Paradiso

You see that the
Positive and the negative
Together, constitute existence
Or one might say
That the good of humanity
Is a curious combination of
Beneficence and rascality
Of reason and passion
Man is, in a certain sense
Redeemed by his passions

You are, in this respect, you see
You are your own worst enemy
Because, even if you serve notice
Privately, on yourself, that suddenly
You're going to drop it all
Already the Devil knows
Because who do you think
The Devil is

I was lost at sea
With nothing all around me
Didn't know who to be
Didn't even know the real me
Fighting hard to see
What it's like to be set free
In an endless mind
I was searching for what to find
No longer am I blind
No longer am I left behind
So, that's it, I'm mine
Into the sun, I will shine

Eyes forward, I may
Peek beyond the fray
A dark forest astray
On the path I'll stay

Eyes forward, I may
Peek beyond the fray
A dark forest astray
On the path I'll stay

Eyes forward, I may
Peek beyond the fray
A dark forest astray
On the path I will stay

I will gather the will
To reach inside
And tear out the light
And use it as a faithful guide
To watch me shine

The student is being brought
Together with himself
To the point where he catches
Up with his own inner being
And can accept it, completely
