I Choose Joy

A thousand times a day

I squander joy

A thousand times a day

I argue

Giving what you say

What they do

Power

To veil the radiance 

I am made of

A thousand times a day 

I choose again

Remembering the ocean of bliss

In which I swim

No longer willing to pay

The ransom

The lie that I am not

Already free

I choose joy

A thousand times a day.
