We Must Not Let It ( ft. Alan Watts, Bakari J.B.) - Wazir Gray

[00:01.97]What do you desire?
[00:03.56]What makes you itch?
[00:06.04]What sort of a situation would you like?
[00:11.56]Let's suppose—I do this often in vocational guidance of students.
[00:16.45]They come to me and say,
[00:20.61]\"Well uh,we're getting out of college
[00:20.82]and we haven't the faintest idea what we want to do.\"
[00:24.57]So I always ask the question:
[00:27.07]\"What would you like to do if money were no object?
[00:32.27]What well,how would you really enjoy spending your life?\"
[00:36.54]Well,it's so amazing as the the result of our kind of educational system,
[00:39.91]crowds of students say,
[00:41.50]\"Well,we'd like to be painters,we'd like to be poets,we'd like to be writers.\"
[00:45.79]But as everybody knows you can't earn any money that way!
[00:48.07]Another person says,\"Well,we'd like to an out-of-door's life and ride horses.\"
[00:52.43]I said,\"Do you want to teach in riding school?\"
[00:56.28]Uh...let's go through with it.What do you want to do?
[01:00.04]When we finally got down to something which the individual says he really wants to do,
[01:04.20]I will say to  him,\"You do that!And forget the money!\"
[01:12.04]Uh...Because if you say that getting the money is the most important thing.
[01:17.41]you will spend your life completely wasting your time.
[01:21.93]You 'll be doing things you don't like doing,
[01:23.75]in order to go on living that is to go on doing things you don't like doing,
[01:27.76]which is STUPID!
[01:30.91]Better to have a short life that is full of what you like doing
[01:34.90]than a long life spent in the miserable way!
[01:42.33]
[01:42.58]What If money was no object
[01:45.02]It would be funny there'd be no projects ,
[01:46.96]scouts no longer looking for prospects ,
[01:49.16]hookers no longer looking for hot ***,
[01:53.50]no colleges ,still organized learning ,
[01:55.18]but comprised of only for what you have a yearning ,
[01:57.46]no loans to default on ,
[01:59.26]only form we taking is vultron ,
[02:01.24]defending the very earth that we walk on ,
[02:03.38]claiming you have a heart ,
[02:04.73]but the pulse gone ,
[02:05.74]replaced by a cold coin no more non profit groups ,
[02:08.68]or mercenary troops ,
[02:11.62]cause we'd all be doing what we love to do ,
[02:13.69]and that's what we love to have done to ourselves ,
[02:15.87]and by a bullet no one want's to get penetrated ,
[02:18.19]and by a government wants to get incarcerated ,
[02:20.72]but maybe my thoughts is jaded ,
[02:22.54]tragedy rich is the only thought to determine whether or not you made it
[02:26.06]Maybe because the stars have faded ,
[02:27.94]ever the get that feeling that you should know ,
[02:30.18]or that your on the Truman show ,
[02:32.40]sad life inside of a cubicle ,
[02:34.48]when you have a talent that's unusual,
[02:36.53]dreams are the oil
[02:37.89]Yet The flame of the greed will destroy you
[02:40.07]we must not let it  (3X )
[02:45.82]dreams are the oil
[02:46.85]Yet The flame of the greed will destroy you
[02:48.12]we must not let it  (3X )
[02:54.03]dreams are the oil
[02:55.13]Yet The flame of the greed will destroy you
[02:56.16]we must not let it (3X )
[03:02.10]dreams are the oil
[03:03.20]Yet The flame of the greed will destroy you
[03:04.38]we will not let it (3X )
[03:12.39]
[03:41.31]Do wazir gray's matters matter
[03:43.20]through the black white and gray matter
[03:46.20]Be careful of the future you chase after
[03:49.87]Doubt comes, We must not let in
[03:54.08]We got dreams we must let out
[03:56.42]Trapped in trying to get out
[03:58.88]Pray you make the destination when you set out
[04:02.08]Some of us should change attitude
[04:04.43]Map quest your latitude off the avenue
[04:07.37]And some of ya'll would rather school
[04:10.32]I would agree that it's indeed the turn for all our seeds to learn
[04:16.47]Don't let a loan deferred be a dream deferred
[04:20.44]And pass up on ya'll goals in stead of one timing
[04:23.51]Open up the blinds on your eyes and let the sun shine in
[04:27.49]Let freedom ring louder than a blood diamond
[04:30.91]Dream are the oil, fuel for the fire
[04:34.50]Fire up the engine and use the new tires
[04:37.73]We know you work hard at times you too tired
[04:40.71]And get no credit
[04:43.32]but you not allowed to be sleepy
[04:45.03]fighting for dreams, the urge to quit seems easy
[04:48.53]and it could break you if it ever overtakes you
[04:52.67]but don't let it， don't let it
[04:55.09]
[04:56.61]And after all,if you do really like what you're doing,
[04:57.92]it doesn't matter what it is.
[04:59.41]You can't eventually turn it…
[05:00.98]uh you could eventually become a master of launch.
[05:03.54]The only way to become a master of something is to be really \"WITH IT\"!
[05:07.23]And then you'll be able to get a good fee for whatever it is.
[05:11.21]So you don't worry too much that everybody's…
[05:14.64]somebody's interested in everything.
[05:17.25]Anything you can be interested in,
[05:18.88]you'll find out very soon.
[05:21.02]But it's absolutely stupid to spend your time doing things you don't like,
[05:24.80]in order to go on spending things you don't like,
[05:27.00]doing things you don't like,
[05:28.77]and to teach your children to follow in the same track.
[05:32.07]Here what we're doing is what we're bringing up children
[05:36.16]and educating them to live the same sort of lives we're living,
[05:39.71]in order that that would…
[05:41.06]they may justify themselves
[05:42.80]and find satisfaction in life by bringing up their children to bring up their children to do the same thing.
[05:47.63]So it's all wretch and no vomit.
[05:49.96]It never gets there!
[05:54.31]And so therefore,
[05:56.96]it's so important to consider this question:
[05:59.54]\"What do I desire?\"
