This Too Shall Pass - Danny Schmidt[00:00:00]

Things change fast[00:00:42]

But this too shall pass[00:00:44]

Better carve it on your forehead[00:00:46]

Or tattoo it on your ass[00:00:48]

Cause who can tell[00:00:49]

When the clock strikes twelve[00:00:52]

If today's become tomorrow[00:00:54]

Or if it's all just gone to hell[00:00:56]

My friend makes rings[00:00:57]

She swirls and sings[00:00:59]

She's a mystic in the sense[00:01:02]

That she's still mystified by things[00:01:03]

But scared to ask[00:01:05]

How can nothing last[00:01:07]

Cause like a cancer in your body[00:01:09]

It all just goes too fast[00:01:11]

We think too big[00:01:29]

We think our self is one whole thing[00:01:31]

And we claim that this collection[00:01:32]

Has a name and is a being[00:01:35]

But deep inside[00:01:36]

When every cell divides[00:01:38]

It sets upon the rule that states[00:01:40]

Self-interest is divine[00:01:42]

Cancer too[00:01:44]

Lives by this golden rule[00:01:46]

That you must do unto the others[00:01:48]

As the others unto you[00:01:50]

All for the best[00:01:52]

Cause that's all the life accepts[00:01:54]

And so we kill it like a buffalo[00:01:56]

With awe and with respect[00:01:58]

Don't ask God[00:02:16]

Just ask the sky[00:02:18]

She'll tell it to you plainly[00:02:19]

In the clouds that whisper by[00:02:21]

And praise the shapes[00:02:23]

And then praise the way they change[00:02:25]

And they'll teach you not to pray to light[00:02:27]

Without you pray to rain[00:02:29]

So I pray to hands[00:02:31]

And I pray to needs[00:02:32]

And I pray to blades of grass[00:02:35]

To find forgiveness in the weeds[00:02:37]

But as for health[00:02:38]

I just never did believe[00:02:40]

And so I never prayed myself[00:02:42]

Except to those that prayed for me[00:02:45]

The story goes[00:03:02]

Or the way that I was told[00:03:04]

There was a king that always felt too high[00:03:06]

And then he fell too low[00:03:09]

And so he called[00:03:10]

All the wise men to the hall[00:03:12]

And begged them for a gift[00:03:14]

To end the rises and the falls[00:03:16]

And here's the thing[00:03:18]

They came back with a ring[00:03:20]

It was simple and was plainly[00:03:22]

Unbefitting of a king[00:03:24]

Engraved in black[00:03:26]

It had no front or back[00:03:28]

But there were words around[00:03:30]

The band that said[00:03:31]

Just know this too shall pass[00:03:32]
