akira the don - anything lyrics
we cannot change anything, unless we accept it
we cannot change anything, unless we accept it
unless we accept it
unless we accept it
we cannot change anything, unless we accept it
condemnation does not liberate
it oppresses and i am the oppressor of the person i condemn
not his friend and fellow sufferer
fellow sufferer
i do not in the least need to say that we must never pass judgment
when we desire to help and improve
but if the doctor wishes to help a human being
he must be able to accept him as he is
and he can do this in reality
only when he has already seen
and accepted himself as he is
as he is
perhaps this sounds very simple
but simple things are always the most difficult
in actual life
it requires the greatest art to be simple
and so acceptance of one’s self is the essence of the moral problem
and the asset test of one’s whole outlook on life
[chorus]
we cannot change anything, unless we accept it
we cannot change anything, unless we accept it
unless we accept it
unless we accept it
we cannot change anything, unless we accept it
that i feed the beggar
that i forgive an insult
that i love my enemy in the name of christ
all these are undoubtedly great virtues
what i do unto the least of my brethren
that i do unto christ
but what if i should discover that the least amongst them all
the poorest of all beggars
the most impudent of all offenders
ye, the very fiend himself
that these are within me
and that i myself stand in need of the arms of my own kindness
that i myself am the enemy who must be loved
what then?
then, as a rule the whole truth of christianity is reversed
there is then no more talk of love and long suffering
we say to the brother within us, “raca”
and condemn and rage against ourselves
we hide him from the world
we deny ever having met this least among the lowly in ourselves
and had it been god himself who drew near to us in this despicable form
we should have denied him a thousand times
before a single c+ck had crowed
[chorus]
we cannot change anything unless we accept it
we cannot change anything unless we accept it
unless we accept it
unless we accept it
we cannot change anything unless we accept it
[chorus]
we cannot change anything unless we accept it
we cannot change anything unless we accept it
unless we accept it
unless we accept it
we cannot change anything unless we accept it
