Contemplation Lyrics by Doug Carn

1967

Soul in a restful state
Peace when the day is ending
I seat, and I contemplate
And search my life for its very beginning
Way back
Way back

Come on in and get inline
Acknowledge the one that most sublime
You must find a way to get back home
Seat down and work it out
See what it is all about
Search till you find true peace of mind
You better try hard, or you'll die hard
And no one will shed a tear
For Oh Child of the creator
That's bound by his own fear

You were free from the day you're born
So, find a space of your own
A space where you can survive
A place to be alive
Live is what you make it
It is up to you, are you wanna take it
True knowledge is free
Open your eyes and see
Have faith in yourself
Be what you want to be
Contemplation
Sweet meditation

From the come up you disconsolate
Time up for you to relocate
Live in your mind, leave the other behind
What you do, what you say
Then what you know
Is all that you can use
Tell me, what is your fate
Could you someday be great
Look at your mind, and watch it grow

Way back a million years
Way back a trillion years
Your life is not yours
It's eternal you see
So contemplate and find the key

Please let my mind be free
That my spiritual eye might see
To seek and home and another place
There, to exist in the mids of God's grace

Way back
Way back
