lyrics

If i am that i am,
that i am i am.
Therefore i must be, you see, i think!?.

But am i flesh or mind,
unzip my skin and what do you find?.
Am i senses taste, smell,
ears, eyes, hands as well?.

Am i anything at all,
good, bad, answers,
questions, happy, sad?.

And when i crumble back to clay,
do i go, do i stay?

I'm just looking for my face in the cosmic spin,
do i end,
did i begin?

What about judgment,
criticism too,
i don't like him,
but i do like you.

Am i this idea that i have of me,
a bird in a cage singing to be?.

So am i skin,
black white,
am i darkness,
am i light?.

Was i just then or here and now,
hindu, sufi, zen or tao?.

What about the elements,
earth, air,
in water and fire,
do you find me there?.

Am i personality,
or a never changing reality?,
tangled up in space and time,
turning reason back to rhyme.

So am i ego,
there you go,
a bubble that you see.
Or am i the ancient, future moment eternally?.
