The modern world and awareness
Awareness, the precious gift of focused attention, is being stolen
Your consciousness has been eroded

Awareness of the present moment is the most magnificent gift bestowed upon us
It exists in a place beyond thought, beyond time
It exists in the here and now
It exists in a place beyond thought, beyond time
It exists in the here and now
In the present, we are not lost to the future, or stuck reliving past events
When we are fully conscious, observing the world as it exists
Attentive, simply absorbed in being
This is where we are truly alive, in communication with the divine

But in our modern world, awareness and attention is under constant threat
We find ourselves living consciously for only a brief portion of the day
Existing in our baser or animal instincts
We find ourselves living consciously for only a brief portion of the day
Existing in our baser or animal instincts
We are consistently living in fear and panic, afraid to interact with the natural world
Giving in to irrationality and infantilized emotional states, masquerading as empathy or compassion

Superficial operations such as anger, lust, fantasy and falsehoods, become more prevalent by the day
We find ourselves stuck in automatic behaviours, unconsciously executing the same meaningless actions
At the mercy of rapid overthinking and obsessive worrying, creating scenarios that may or may not come to fruition
At the mercy of rapid overthinking and obsessive worrying, creating scenarios that may or may not come to fruition
We have forgone actual existence, reality, in favour of screens, ready to feed us anything we will consume
Creating patterns of addiction and dependence on devices, that pull our focus from those around us
Creating patterns of addiction and dependence on devices, that pull our focus from those around us
We have been pushed towards restlessness, and manipulated into an unrefined manner of existence
Distracted, lesser than we were
Distracted, lesser than we were
The modern world has stolen your attention, your awareness, your higher consciousness
Without you even realizing
It has degraded your mental autonomy
And eroded your focus
Without you even realizing
It has degraded your mental autonomy
And eroded your focus
It has appealed to your lower operations, your most irrational mind
It has pulled us off the path of meaning and purpose
Leaving us spiritually misaligned, at odds with our natural state of being

Do not let the modern world corrupt your awareness
The true awareness that allows you to rise above these lowly behaviours,
That allows you to observe and control your lesser self
To live in the true beauty of the universe
Humble, grateful
Connected to those around you

Humble, grateful
Connected to those around you
You must preserve your awareness and attention
Observe consciously where you lend it
For it is a true gift from the cosmos
Affording you clarity
Allowing transcendence
