an awakening

I like this song and mentioned it in my book because I had an awakening and it seemed similar to what John Lennon Wrote in "I Found Out." One of the big themes seems to be that religion and mysticism are not that different from dope. Religion and Drugs are really pretty similar. It's one of my favourite songs by him. I also used it for the promo for yesterdays video blog, even though it had little to do with. As I explained in my book Memoirs of a Drugged-Up, Sex-Crazed Yippie, I had a similar awakening and came to the conclusion that both drugs and religion allow people to escape reality.




told you before, stay away from my door
Don't give me that brother, brother, brother, brother
The freaks on the phone, won't leave me alone
So don't give me that brother, brother, brother, brother No!
I, I found out!
I, I found out!

Now that I showed you what I been through
Don't take nobody's word what you can do
There ain't no Jesus gonna come from the sky
Now that I found out I know I can cry

I, I found out!
I, I found out!

Some of you sitting there with your cock in your hand
Don't get you nowhere don't make you a man
I heard something 'bout my Ma and my Pa
They didn't want me so they made me a star

I, I found out!
I, I found out!

Old Hare Krishna got nothing on you
Just keep you crazy with nothing to do
Keep you occupied with pie in the sky
There ain't no guru who can see through your eyes

I, I found out!
I, I found out!

I seen through junkies, I been through it all
I seen religion from Jesus to Paul
Don't let them fool you with dope and cocaine
No one can harm you, feel your own pain

I, I found out!
I, I found this out!
I, I found out!
