Lyrics
It's Only Maya
a thing that's before your eyes
how do you know, for sure
it's there when you turn around?
It's Only Maya
a world held in place with lies
trying to seem- secure
all the time, crumbling to the ground.
Take every chance that you get to see through the Veil;
never forget you're the author of your own Tale.
It's Only Maya
a web everyday we weave
buying the myths- they sell

It's Only Maya
it functions 'cause we believe
that's how it is.. oh well,
I'll ascend after Judgement Day.
Those in control stake their fortunes on apathy
take back the power to shape what your life can be!
