Biologia

Biology determines much of the way we live
From the moment we're born, we know how to breath and eat
As we grow older, new instincts kick in
We become territorial
We learn to compete
We seek shelter
Most important of all, we reproduce.
Sometimes biology can be turn on us

Biology says that we are who we are from birth
that our DNA is set in stone ... unchangeable
Our DNA doesn’t account for all us
we’re human
life changes us
we develop new trades
become less territorial
we stop competing
we learn from our mistakes
we face our greatest fears
for better or worse
we find ways to become more than our biology

the risk, of course, is that we can change too much
to the point we don’t recognize ourselves
finding our way back can be difficult
theres no compass, no map

we just have to close our eyes
take a step
and hope to God we get there
