Mind Over Matter Lyrics

I think people need to realize

That the human brain

Is the most sophisticated pharmacy in the world

Your brain is so much more than just a memory storage system

Or a supercomputer that so many people say that it is

Your body has the ability to heal itself

If you're thinking in the right way

Whatever picture you hold in your mind

Your brain then translates that into complementary chemistry

A different chemistry reacts and do a different genetic activity

So, in layman's terms it's mind over matter

It's your environment

It's not your genes that determine the fate of your cells

Your mind is a chemist that determines the composition of your blood

Which in turn is what fuels your 50 trillion cells that make up your body

So when you produce feelings such as love and gratitude and compassion

You produce nutrients that nurture your cells

But when you produce feelings such as worry anxiety stress

You produce toxins that

Well they damage your cells

Toxins are poison

I guess really what I'm trying to say is

If you learn to love yourself and have compassion for others

And be grateful for everything that you have

It'll rewire the chemical makeup of your body in time

And our reality is simply perception.
