Free your mind

Come now, mash down babylon
Up and down the mountain
Wash away the wickedness
And purify the fountain

They're poisoning our very souls
And brainwashing the youth
They've hidden all the answers
And re-arranged the truth

Hungry eyes observe the Dow
It's highest point in years
While the fife and drum of Ares
Is ringing in my ears

A million martyrs stand in line
While shepherds speak of profits
Portfolios resurrected
Yet the death toll still skyrockets

The gold that briefly glitters
Is worth its weight in salt
While those inclined to seek it
Close their minds up like a vault

The golden promise broken
Yet many still revere it
They pray for nothing greater
And sell away their spirit

So breathe a little every day
And don' get left behind
Please obey the noble truths
Let Buddha free your mind
