I Am Your Mind, Part II Songtext
von Roy Ayers

If you believe in yourself
You′ll know the real you
It's coming from within
Sincerely, sincerely

You subject yourself to being vulnerable
Not knowing why you fall in love
And so you become
What you are made to become
It′s not at all fair that I feel as I do
Tell me something to make me feel better


My sister, I am your mind
Within you there's a never-ending
Magnitude of infinite strength, wisdom and will
You travel my roads through life never knowing your own
True reality because my thoughts
Remain like distant quasars
You abuse me by never letting me
Say and do as I feel
Our thoughts split from love affairs to choice of friends
We argue like two enemies yet we are good friends

Now, there are moments when we harmonize with each other
And become one with nature and reality
But These times are few
When after you have replenished yourself
The fear of the truth sets in
We split, and you start to run again
Running, running, running
Running through women, men, jobs, people and life
Looking for the answer when I had it all along
But I smile
... because I am your mind


I was your mind yesterday; I am your mind today
And I'll be your mind tomorrow. And as our end draws near
We will become closer. But you and I, you and I
We will never be one
For I will part from you
And you will part from me
You finding another mind
And I another soul
And we′ll travel on and on

By the way
I need more than sex to nourish my equilibrium
But I do need sex
I also need sun, trees, stars, creativity and love
But you saturate my soul
With too much of one and not enough of the other
Therefore I cry
But why do we cry?
Because tears cleanse the windows of our minds
I am your mind

Tell me something to make me feel better

All your thoughts inside your mind
...wanting to be free

Well
Now you′ve got the chance to let your mind grow
And be free. Because the music is just trying to say
Things to free your mind
And if you let your mind be free
Then you can understand mine
There's no need
To be afraid of me
I want to be your friend
I′m just trying to give you music from deep, deep
Deep within

(And on and on, and on and on)

Tell me something to make me feel better
(And on and on, and on and on)
All of your dreams can become reality
My dial reaches full
But you've only been turning me
Halfway
Turn me up
And alpha and theta waves will spew from your pores
Knowledge, peace, happiness and prosperity will
Be placed at your feet
Let′s
Let's create
Solve
Love
Accomplish
...And unify
As-Salaam-Alaikum
