Utmost Desire (feat. jeph.ilosopher)

Yeah, sometimes my actions are confusing me
I know what's right but still get caught up in the foolery
I'm supposed to work for unity
I've been awakened to my selfish ways, and now I'm losing sleep
If I said I'm perfect I'd be lying, like I play in Detroit
Gotta bring myself to account each day like I work for Deloitte
Make an adjustment like a trip to The Joint
When the goal is to serve, everybody wins, maybe that's the point
It took some time for me to see it but now I realize
That we can't see in the darkness it's all part of the design
God told us to be a lamp, it's time to reply
So we shine

Your utmost desire must be to confer happiness upon each other
Your utmost desire must be to confer happiness upon each other
Each one must be the servant of the others
Happiness upon each other

It's kind of funny how
We get so busy lifting weights for our health
You could be building that same muscle lifting up someone else
I'm feeling like, my work and life
They don't need to balance
They need to unite
How many virtues can I earn if I serve you right
What about reciprocal joy when I can reverse your plight
Help you live your perfect life
You might be wondering, what about me
If i give everything away, will i have what i need
The moral is, the more we give
The more spiritual blessings that we can form within
How do we know which of our possessions are important things
We tend to rationalize until we're hoarding things
Taking space for joy it seems
That's why not only serving others is promoting peace
But scientifically, helping can boost your dopamine
Wow
I feel it in my veins when I'm vain
But I fill generosity through my arteries, go
Pump it out then
Pump it out then

Your utmost desire must be to confer happiness upon each other
Your utmost desire must be to confer happiness upon each other
Each one must be the servant of the others
Happiness upon each other
