The ones who see all the colors that are refracted within the light, this is the effort to show the way for the ones who has lost their light. It’s the reflection of the truth of freed minds through reasoning. This is the helping voice for the ones who do not see the sun, do not hear the music, and who do not know how to swim or fly. Crowded minds behind the forty locked door... A delicate conversation in consciousness and below bridges. Either listen to these words or close your ears. Either believe the truth or shoot your mind. Sometimes the truth will show, sometimes it won’t.
