NOT WHAT YOU THINK song lyrics
by Joel Sattler

light stands still
I shall prove
light stands still
chaos moves

To the point:
There is no separation
between past, present and future.

They all exist simultaneously.
Or, rather, only the present exists.

You can’t step in the same river twice
you can’t put the same foot
in the river twice either.
Not only that, but you are the river.

It is impossible to experience
a moment
in the present.
By the time your brain gets to it,
you’re already in the past.
By the time you understand it,
even further
And by the time you remember it:
long gone.

The passage of time is a necessary illusion
for us to function within the Bang.
If the past is not what you think,
if the present is not what you think,
if the future is not what you think,
then time itself is not what you think.

And YOU are not WHAT you think you ARE.

in the S-theory,
light does not move,
but permeates the universe

and the illusion of time
is simply the relationship
of things to light.

Or, instead,
all things are made of light,
but some are more than others,
and this is the appearance
ofcausality.

Did you,
do you,
will you
get it?

Not only that,
but no two things,
no two events,
can exist or occur
together

So, whether you understand this
now or later,
it didn’t matter,
it doesn’t matter,
it will not have had mattered.

The mind is not what you think it is.

the essence of the poem ....

The moment is ALWAYS representing the present, when we enter into the next moment, that last moment would become the past. We are constantly entering the past and the present, and the future.

While there are some fantastic thoughts here about existence and light, I find it rather hard to turn it into a song. I think someone once said, "Let there be light. "
