Sex, drugs, and money aren't enough for me!
I need a different kind of spirituality!
Sex, drugs, and money aren't enough for me!
I need a special kind of spirituality!
Once I was a peaceful man
In touch with nature and eternal meaning
Then I went out in the city
And discovered money
I dabbled in promiscuity
Enjoyed substances
And now I'm here
And now I'm here
I became a businessman
Traveled across the ferry without pay
Her sedan chair passed by me
And I could not resist
This courtesan
Oh, this courtesan
She exchanged kisses for my poetry
And so she taught me the art of love
My soul still longed for enlightenment
Just like my elders
I stumbled upon the river
Oh, won't this river take my life?
No! I must rest
My old acquaintance passed me by
I was unrecognizable to him
I am a Samana
I long for enlightenment...
My love has passed
My love has passed
My son has stolen
My son has stolen from me
I need a different kind of spirituality
I need a special kind of spirituality
