Quiet
Journey to Inner Peace: Embracing Solitude and Liberation
Lyrics
I am heading for a time of quiet
I am anticipating a period of tranquility
When my restlessness is past
When my inner restlessness has subsided
And I can lie down on my blanket
And I can peacefully lie down on my blanket
And release my fists at last
Releasing the tension in my fists
I am heading for a time of solitude
I am moving towards a time of being alone
Of peace without illusions
In a state of peace without false beliefs
When the perfect circle
Where a perfect circle symbolizes harmony
Marries all beginnings and conclusions
Uniting all beginnings and conclusions
And when they say
Addressing criticism that suggests inadequacy
That you're not good enough
When faced with the claim of not being good enough
Well the answer is
The response is acknowledging imperfection
You're not
A straightforward acknowledgment: "You're not"
But who are they
Raising questions about the identity of those criticizing
Or what is it
Questioning the nature of the criticism
That eats at what you've got
Identifying something that erodes what one possesses
With the hunger of ambition
Describing a hunger driven by ambition
For the change inside the purse
Referring to a desire for change within financial matters
They are handcuffs on the soul, my friends
Symbolizing ambition as soul-restricting handcuffs
Handcuffs on the soul
Reiterating the restrictive nature of ambition
And worse
Implying that the situation is even worse
I am heading for a place of quiet
Anticipating a destination characterized by peace
Where the sage and sweet grass grow
Where wisdom and sweet grass flourish
By a lake of sacred water
Near a lake fed by sacred water
From the mountain's melted snow
Originating from the melted snow of the mountains
