Inception of Self-Deception · Results Fresh In: Drunk As Punk
⁘ “The ideas we've constructed, unfounded, a mesh of lies you're in, a distortion lens of how many dimensions. If only you could live in the immediate here and now — as it is. Instead, it's like you're caught in a psychedelic trip gone sideways. How do we ever reel you back to reality from this inception of self-deception you attach to? Conclusions are clear. The world has gone drunken mad in its pursuit of ephemeral illusions. You along with it.”
The ideas we've constructed,
that we hold on to,
of what should be, and what we are.
But when those ideas are unfounded,
it's all a mesh of lies you're in.
A convoluted network of tunnels you're swooshing in,
a distortion lens of how many dimensions.
If only you could live
in the immediate here and now, as it is.
Instead, you're living like you're
caught in a psychedelic trip,
gone all sorts of five sorts of sideways.
How do we ever reel you back to reality
from this trip in a trip in a trip in a trip?
This inception of self-deception
that you indulge in – as a way of life.
So that all seems pretty straight up
and crystal clear right there.
Not really calling for a convoluted
round of academic peer reviews to be
published in a recognized journal.
Not calling for clinical trials to be conducted
on the international space station
before we can draw any conclusions.
The conclusions are clear as day.
The world has gone drunken mad
in its pursuit of ephemeral illusions.
You along with it.
If you want to reset your rails,
reestablish yourself in reality,
then anytime now – feel free to wake up.
It all starts with acceptance, acknowledgement.
I'm pretty fucking drunk here.
Then you begin identifying your illusions,
peeling them away, and
step by step returning to what is.
