What's the answer to the meaning of life? Here's an answer
I was trying to solve this terrible puzzle about how it was that human beings got themselves in such a tangle about what they believe
Such a tangle that we were pointing
The ultimate weapons of destruction at one another which by the way, we are still doing
I thought, okay, well I understand that, we need our belief systems, they orient us and that means there will be conflict between belief systems and that can be a catastrophe and that's being played out everywhere again, in very many ways
What's the solution to that?
Well, one possibility is there's no solution, it's just mayhem all the way around
Could be the case
But it seemed to me as I delved into it that the proper solution to that was to live properly
As an individual
[Chorus]
You're more powerful than you think
Way more powerful
God only knows what you are
In the final analysis
You're more powerful than you think
Way more powerful
You're blind to your own weaknesses
But you're also blind to your own strength (Bucko)
And so then I think, well, if you've got your act together it'd be better for you and instantly it would be better for your family assuming they wanted you to get your act together and not everyone does
And then it would be better for the community
Like how far can you take that, if you stopped wasting time and if you stop lying and if you oriented yourself to the highest possible good that you could conceive of and you committed to that
How much good could you do?
Well, I would say, why don't you find out?
So that's what I think you should do
You should find out
[Chorus]
You're more powerful than you think
Way more powerful
God only knows what you are
In the final analysis
You're more powerful than you think
Way more powerful
You're blind to your own weaknesses
But you're also blinded to your own strengths (Bucko)
Maybe you can sort yourself out
So, that you wanted
Nothing but the good
And then maybe you can help make that manifest in the world
Maybe we wouldn't have all these terrible problems then
At least we'd have fewer of them and that would be a start
And that would be a start
And that would be a start
And that would be a start
The answer to the problem
Of humanity is the, is the, is the integrity of the individual
[Chorus]
You're more powerful than you think
Way more powerful
God only knows what you are
In the final analysis
You're more powerful than you think
Way more powerful
You're blind to your own weaknesses
But you're also blind to your own strengths (Bucko)
That's the answer
So and then you think, well, what's the barrier? And the barrier is
Are you willing to accept the responsibility?
And part of the answer to that is
Reduce the damn responsibility until it's tolerable
You don't have to fix everything at once
You can just start by fixing the things that you could fix
You can do it with even less self-sacrifice
You can start by fixing only the things that you wanna fix
God, you can get a massive way that way
Go do it!
See what happens
That's what you should have been taught
Right from the beginning
Aim at the highest good
Tool yourself into something that can attain it
And go out there and manifest it in the world
Everything that comes your way will be
Everything that comes your way will be a blessing
Everything that comes your way will be a blessing
Everything that comes your way will be a blessing
Everything that comes your way will be a blessing
