Counterparts - John Fucking Locke (You Think You’re) lyrics

The most common insecurity is our destination
After our conscious fades away
The biggest factor in how
One molds their existence
Is nothing more than a distraction
From what is really important
Who we are in the present
I know in my heart the life I
Lead now means more to this world
Than any "reward" I may receive after death
I know this to be the truth
I refuse to sacrifice the life
That I've been given in the
Hopes of something greater
When all I need is right in front of me
Because I believe in man
I believe in myself, and nothing else
I can't put my faith in uncertainty
While there's still no proof of validity
Amongst the old familiar pages
Which to me are nothing
More than fucking words
I will choose life over faith
And I will put my trust back in myself
And then I'll be free
Together we can eliminate the
Worry and the fear
From the minds and hearts of our fellow man
I know in my heart who I need to be
