lirik lagu akira the don - the voice
the voice lyrics
how old was i when everything you understood started to come together?
i think that really started happening to me, started probably happening to me when i was in my early 20s
i realized at about that age, that almost everything i said was a falsehood of one form or another
i was using language instrumentally in order to win arguments or to attain dominance, indicate that i was intelligent, or
to use it for victory, for narrow local, personal victory
and i realized that when i was in my early 20s, and i started to, ’cause a voice, in some sense a voice started inside my head, which i now regard as something equivalent to cricket in “pinocchio.”
[chorus]
the voice it’s your opposite
the voice that makes you buck
the voice it’s your opposite
the voice
the voice it’ s your opposite
the voice that makes you buck
the voice
the voice
and continually inform me that the things i was saying
weren’t in some fundamental sense weren’t true, and it was very disquieting, because the voice that was commenting on what i was saying
was making comments of that sort
i wouldn’t call them disparaging
it was more, just a matter of fact commentary, but it was saying about 95% of what i was saying
and i thought, “well, that’s a strange conundrum, because now i don’t know if i’m the voice that’s criticizing what i’m saying, or if i’m the thing that saying what’s being criticized.”
how do you figure that out?
but i decided that i would take a chance and assume that the part that was suggesting that i wasn’t saying things truthfully was accurate, and i started to practice always saying things that, that voice wouldn’t object to
[chorus]
the voice it’s your opposite
the voice that makes you buck
the voice it’s your opposite
the voice
the voice it’ s your opposite
the voice that makes you buck
the voice
the voice
and i think that’s also equivalent to some degree to trying to say only those things that make you strong instead of weak
or that do not fill you with a post~speech sense of shame and regret
(voice, voice, voice, voice, voice, voice, voice, voice)
