From the recording Certainty’s Entropic Decay
Lyrics
Certainty is an impenetrable fortress,
Within walls of stone and steel.
We guard truths we swore were our chorus,
Immutable, steadfast, feeling so real.
The logic’s thread seems sure and clear,
A lattice strong, precise, and true,
But shadows fall as light draws near,
And strange doubts begin to strew.
New evidence—a gentle tweak,
Shakes foundations deep and still,
Each fragment calls for truth to speak,
For reason bends, yet holds its will.
Our minds resist, but we cannot feign,
When scientific data stakes its claim,
Our fragile egos balk in pain,
But facts extinguish ego’s flame.
The scaffolds shift; the edifice bends,
As something far greater forms:
An understanding without end,
Through reason’s enduring storms.
No shame in yielding—growth takes root,
In our shared primal unity,
Truths evolve in pursuit
Of what is real, of quality.
So let us question boldly, renew,
The mind’s most sacred creed—
To seek what’s beyond, what is true,
For an open mind plants the seed.
It helps us grow vast, unrestrained,
Unbound by the past’s fading chains...
For when we change our minds, we find
The shackles break that once confined.
