Brian's passage

"Basic instructions before leavin' Earth

Life is a test, many quest the universe
And through my research, I felt the joy and the hurt
The first shall be last and the last shall be first
The basic instructions before leaving Earth

Knowledge this wisdom, this goes back when I was twelve
I love doing right, but I was trapped in Hell
Had mad ideas, sad eyes and tears
Years of fear, but yo my foes couldn't bear
I searched for the truth since my youth
And went to church since birth, but it wasn't worth the loot
That I was paying, plus the praying"

I like it because it brings up the moral issues that everyone is faced with day to day. I feel that what he is talking about could be applied to many different time periods and as well as the people in it. I believe he is speaking the truth here and it can be well appreciated in a time where peace really is a hard thing to come by. I like it because while it is both deep and meaningful, it is also simple enough for everyone to understand his perspective and view's on life.
