Why are we here?
Many people have wondered
What exactly we’re supposed to do
And why we’re supposed to do it
Life is filled with distractions,
It is never enough

I feel like
We often loose ourselves
In the little things
The appointments, the jobs
The work, the gossip, the money.
Life is filled with distractions,
It is never enough

To what is our satisfaction?
Objects and tangible things?
Acceptance and invitations?
We loose focus because
Life is filled with distractions
It is never enough

So why not live a simpler life?
Where there are no distractions
Where there is always enough
Forget the world
Loose yourself in simplicity
And there will be so much more to find
Life is filled with distractions
It is never enough
