Justified

I'm not justified,
In telling you what to think
I only want to give,
Your imagination wings
I want to show you,
That there are more answers,
Than you know
I want to plant a seed,
That hopefully will grow

I'm not justified,
In saying what is right
I only want to provide,
A little piece of insight,
Into the way,
That things really are
Just open your mind,
And I know you will go far

I'm not justified,
In telling you what to feel,
Because if I control your thoughts,
Then how do you know it's real?
Let no-one tell you,
What you should do
Only you know the path,
That you must choose

When we justify,
The things that we do,
All we do is make excuses,
And cut reason loose
When we justify,
We stray off course,
And the reason that we did it,
Doesn't matter anymore

An open mind,
Is a wonderful thing,
But if you close it,
It can be heartbreaking
An open mind,
Is a dangerous thing,
So open yours,
And give your imagination wings

We justify so many things, many important, most trivial, but no-one can EVER justify forcing you to do things that you don't want to do, and YOU cannot justify giving away your free will because it is "easier" to do.

When you give up your mind, you give up WHO YOU ARE!

I want to make certain that everyone who reads my work understands that I am only giving you MY point of view. I in NO WAY want to force you to think what I think, and feel what I feel. I simply show you many possible paths, only YOU can, and should, choose for you.

I cannot JUSTIFY doing it for you, and I would not choose for you, even if I could.
