I Am Your Mind, Part 2 Lyrics
Roy Ayers
If you believe in
yourself
You’ll know the real you
It’s coming from within
Sincerely, sincerely
You subject yourself to being vulnerable
Not knowing why you fall in love
And so you become
What you are made to become
It’s not at all fair that I feel as I do
Tell me something to make me feel better
My sister, I am your mind. Within you there’s a never-ending magnitude of
infinite strength, wisdom and will. You travel my roads through life never
knowing your own true reality because my thoughts remain like distant quasars.
You abuse me by never letting me say and do as I feel. Our thoughts split from
love affairs to choice of friends. We argue like two enemies yet we are good
friends.
Now, there are moments when we harmonize with each other, and become one with
nature and reality. But these times are few. When after you have replenished
yourself, the fear of the truth sets in. We split, and you start to run again.
Running, running, running. Running through women, men, jobs, people and life
looking for the answer when I had it all along. But I smile… because I am your
mind.
I was your mind yesterday; I am your mind today; and I’ll be your mind
tomorrow. And as our end draws near we will become closer. But you and I, you
and I, we will never be one, for I will part from you and you will part from
me; you finding another mind and I another soul. And we’ll travel on and on.
By the way, I need more than sex to nourish my equilibrium. But I do need sex.
I also need sun, trees, stars, creativity and love. But you saturate my soul
with too much of one and not enough of the other. Therefore I cry. But why do
we cry? Because tears cleanse the windows of our minds. I am your mind.
Tell me something to make me feel better
All your thoughts inside your mind wanting to be free
Well, now you’ve got the chance to let your mind grow… and be free. Because the
music is just trying to say things to free your mind. And if you let your mind
be free, then you can understand mine. There’s no need to be afraid of me. I
want to be your friend. I’m just trying to give you music from deep, deep, deep
within.
And on and on, and on and on
Tell me something to make me feel better
All of your dreams can become reality. My dial reaches full, but you’ve only
been turning me halfway. Turn me up, and alpha and theta waves will spew from
your pores. Knowledge, peace, happiness and prosperity will be placed at your
feet. Let’s, let’s create. Solve. Love. Accomplish. And unify.
As-Salaam-Alaikum.

Personally, I would be delighted if there were a life after death, especially if it permitted me to continue to learn about this world and others, if it gave me a chance to discover how history turns out. Carl Sagan |

The
marvels of daily life are exciting; no movie director can arrange the
unexpected that you find in the street.

Sweet Fifteen
 |
Quinceañera (lit.
meaning One (f.) who is fifteen), sometimes called "Fiesta de quince
años", "Fiesta de Quinceañera", "Quince años" or
simply "quince", is the celebration of a girl's fifteenth birthday in
parts of Latin America and elsewhere in communities
of people from Latin America. This birthday is celebrated differently from any
other birthday, as it marks the transition from childhood to
young womanhood.
The celebration, however, varies significantly across countries, with
celebrations in some countries taking on, for example, more religious overtones
than in others.
In Brazil, a
Portuguese-speaking country, the same celebration is called Festa de
Debutante, Baile de Debutante or Festa de Quinze Anos. [Wiki]
