Kinetics - Belief lyrics

[Verse 1: Accent] Was it an explosion Of no known proportion that opened a floating ocean of stars? And once one ends its glowing Does a nova's core then re-form to a sort of hole in the dark? And have we been stead'ly growing From amoebas slowly over the seasons into what creatures we are? Or even easier a notion That people will read was spoken as breeding us from the speech of a God? And when we cease to know things Are beings decomposing the seeds that are thrown for feeding as marl? Or when our breathing's going Do we see plateaus of the holiest reach in secrets beyond? Tell me is belief chosen? By each and their own via freedom to mold the meanings in hearts? Or is it beaten right over them And then seemingly woven into the deepest emotions when taught? [Hook: Hunter Stout] What am I to make of all this? You still lie to me so often And I don't know why I stay to absorb it When my teachers try to erase my thoughts and wash my mind [Verse 2: Benefit] If we could play the universe in reverse and rewind it in time Would we find a divine mind behind the design Or would we find the divine mind we're trying to define Too hard to find and incline it's all unguided and blind? Everything mathematically intertwined and combined Dramatically fine tuned then aligned and refined Down to gravity the moon and the rise of the tide But are we gradually consumed by the lies and the pride? Or the tragedies that doomed all of the guys that have died Is it hard to see the truth through our eyes that have cried? Is it a matter of chance that DNA happened gather and dance And transform ‘to something rather advanced? We're buried under an avalanche of chatter and rants That seem to subtract a lot more than they add or enhance Does belief form or collapse from the facts and the proof That impacts a synapse that adapts to the truth? [Verse 3: Kinetics] You can believe in Illuminati... But, I believe that I am a computer probably, trapped in a human body Actually I'm just oddly behaving and fairly awkward If I don't have a drink in my hand then I'm barely talking I don't know, yo maybe it's just me I'm paranoid things ain't always what they seem Like what if someone's in control and I'm unaware Somewhere up in the air are a couple of puppeteers We play with a gray box and pray that the pain stops Our nation is brainwashed, we're havin' the same thoughts *Pfft* Earth to Earth, you pave the way to the stars But the only Curiosity left, you gave it to Mars What if it's all a dream and you basically are Just a laboratory brain in a jar? Ayo son... Is it a matter of luck that lightening actually struck Inside the ocean and awoken the inanimate muck? And all the matter and bacteria magically puffed And the planet erupted into these birds, mammals and bugs Then a mammal grew a hand with a thumb Then that thumb pressed a bu*ton on a phone that made humanity dumb Yo, who you think built all them pyramids for Egyptians? Who you think left the material with directions? So when I die, let my soul be sent to the ocean And my mind genetically coded and cryogenically frozen [Hook: Hunter Stout] What am I to make of all this? You still lie to me so often And I don't know why I stay to absorb it When my teachers try to erase my thoughts and wash my mind [Verse 4: Dylan Owen] My guess This is a wrinkle in time stretched The Middletown sun sets in my window Goodbye friend It's been a whole week, I haven't figured out life yet But everything's alright, just believe I'll blame it on another night with the knight in me frightened Fighting for final insight to life When the times weren't the brightest Right! or the lights were the blindest kind At the sight of goodbyes, we stifled in silence But started fires the size of the ocean right there inside us The white winter solstice lightens up our mighty emotions And takes flight like when you'd fly off of the height of my shoulders Before the the boxer kids the bimbos the haunted houses the car washes Back before the coffeeshops the bingos and the shopping strips It was just us in the world, gold and clear eyed Glowing in the sunset bitten air while your hair dried Our linked hearts were big martyr pick-card advice I hung myself and watched you blossom like string garden lights Now I carry the cannon carefully casually count my losses I'm carrying on...mapping to fashion a match that's stronger This half of the gla** is planning to shatter after the morning So I stand at the shore like the sand at the water And swallow my belief [Hook: Hunter Stout] What am I to make of all this? You still lie to me so often And I don't know why I stay to absorb it When my teachers try to erase my thoughts and wash my mind
