The Question
Finding Guidance: Exploring Life's Deeper Questions
Lyrics
Who is the one who guides me through this life
Reflecting on a guiding force in life.
And shows me true wealth, protects me from myself
Seeking guidance for true prosperity and self-protection.
Who is the one, who is the one
Emphasizing the search for this guiding entity.
Who do I follow, is it vengeance or forgiveness
Contemplating whether to follow a path of revenge or forgiveness.
Is his eye still on the sparrow or oblivious and narrow
Questioning the awareness and focus of the guiding entity.
Who do I follow, who do I follow
Reiterating the query about the choice of influence.
We accept a bounty for our own hearts to share
Accepting a reward for sharing one's heart, possibly emphasizing emotional openness.
Not for those that have, but for ones with pockets bare
Highlighting generosity towards those in need rather than the affluent.
Is enough never enough for our greed to hold
Questioning the insatiable nature of greed.
What is our treasure, to be loving or cold
Pondering the true value – love or cold detachment.
Is this our heaven
Exploring the concept of heaven, linking it to Earth's care or exploitation.
To care for it's earth and nurture it's health
Defining heaven as caring for the Earth and nurturing its well-being.
Or jusy suck out it's blood and trade it for wealth
Contrasting caring for the Earth with exploiting it for wealth.
Is this our heaven
Reiterating the question of whether Earth is truly a heavenly place.
Who is the one, painting rainbows so diverse
Identifying the creator responsible for diverse beauty, possibly nature.
To behold and adore, or to pluck out a color, to repress and abhor
Questioning whether to appreciate or suppress the beauty created.
Who is this one
Persisting in the inquiry about the identity of this creator.
An outpouring of kindness or anger and blame
Contrasting kindness with anger and blame in the creator's actions.
Embracing this whole world as one nation
Considering a united world versus perceiving divisions.
Or do we see only separation
Questioning whether unity or separation dominates our perspective.
Show me the vision for this creation
Requesting a vision for the purpose of creation.
We know the one who guides us through this life
Affirming knowledge of the guiding force in life.
Who shows us true wealth, protects us from ourselves
Acknowledging the role of the guiding entity in true wealth and self-protection.
We know the one, we know the one
Repeating the assurance of familiarity with the guiding force.
We have the answers, we see the way
Asserting possession of answers and understanding the way forward.
We listen to wisdom, don't always hear it
Recognizing the availability of wisdom but acknowledging occasional failure to heed it.
We all have the answers, we see the way
Emphasizing collective possession of answers and vision.
We all know the one, we all know the one
Affirming universal knowledge of the guiding force in life.
