  • How was I supposed to know
    That my stone was gonna roll
    way down in the valley
    How was I supposed to see
    All the fishes in the sea
    Swimmed on without me
    I was jus a little stone
    At the bottom of the sea
    The waves were crashing over me
    How was I supposed to keep
    All of my sheep
    When the hill’s so steep
    How was I supposed to know
    That my stone was gonna roll
    Way down in the valley
    To the ocean
    Floating along with the strangest notion
    Gonna take off my old clothes
    And never put em back on
    TAKANAKA
    Fear…..
    Is the mind
    Is the mind
    Killa
    Killa
    The real a dilla
    Fear fear fear ahhh
    How was I supposed to know
    I was gonna fall in love with 'ole Takanaka
    Mowing my lawn on a Sunday
    Praying for the daisy’s forgiveness
    And the rain to come on
    To the ocean…
    How’s the surf down there in Japan, good man?
    Is it open?
    I wanna be specifically pacific
    but i'm arkansan
    I know I must
    I gotta trust
    This lust
    For the ocean
    TAKANAKA
    Fear
    Is the mind
    Is the mind
    Killa
    Killa
    The real dilla
    Fear fear fear ahhhh
    How was I supposed to know that my soul was gonna grow
    Into a big soul flower
    And the only thing I’d ever need is a big hot sun
    And the occasional shower
    How was I supposed to know that my stone was gonna roll
    Way down in the valley
    How was I supposed to see all the fishes in the sea
    Were swimming on without me
    In the ocean
    Fear
    Is the mind
    Is the mind
    Killa
    Killa
    The real dilla
    Fear fear fear ahhhh

    “I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”
    Frank Herbert

      And yes.
      I wrote all of this.

      This comment was originally posted by me for askyouruncle on his mgsv sucks and I love it full comp, his ac revelations vid, and the community post he made not to long ago about ac 3 running on computers in Boston.
      This is the same comment but it applies to you and everyone, trust me.
      Everyone should know the TRUTH about life.
      The TRUTH is... YOU
      And me.
      All of us.
      True freedom is a declaration of independence from everything. Good, evil, yourself, others, God(hear me out), and to know this grants us true freedom and that is beautiful. And to do the right thing, to be good, to follow God, not in spite of but because of this... that is true good, true righteousness. Everything is permitted but that doesn't mean we SHOULD do everything. The TRUTH is everything. About reality, ourselves, the good and the parts we tell ourselves is the horn. It's always just been us. To know yourself and to trust yourself is true peace. That is the path. Not to fight entropy, but to accept that it and everything else is the natural way of reality and humans and we have the freedom to govern our reality. That is the meaning of life. Thank you. Without you, and God, and all the other people and influences and thoughts and actions in my life would I have been able to figure this out. You have done something truly special Joey. You can rest now. Thank you all. Thank God. I love God and I love all of you. Yes. Even specifically you. I may never have met you but I know: Whoever you are you have the power inside you to find this truth. THE TRUTH. Godspeed.

    Being 54 years old and a huge music fan all my life, I can honestly say that to hear the first 30 seconds of a song and it to connect straight away with your heart and soul is very very rare...This tune is one of those very rare occassions. Great lyrics, great composition, a dude obviously lovin' the shit out of what he's doing, whats more perfect. Beautiful to see and hear. Thankyou so very much bro 🙏
