buddha camp

buddha camp

so you're off to a different place
there's something you feel the need to embrace
you've had it up to here with the current wrath
it's time to walk down an ancient path

spend a week at buddha camp
they say it's seven days well spent
see the jewel inside the lotus
and find enlightenment

the stuff you packed just leave it behind
material things don't jive with the mind
yes you'll be faced with a challenge indeed
but you've already got everything you need

mental objects flying about
the seeds of wisdom begin to sprout
and what you thought was just despair
is really a label for what isn't there
the suffering that we claim is fate
it's a condition we blindly create
cause you can't manipulate reality
you just need to see

all you've got to do is open your eyes
when you see truth you also see lies
it's easy to accept the choices we make
when we are awake
