In the beginning, Socrates said to me
Know thyself and you will see
But Plato dreamed of a world so bright
Where shadows fade and truth is light

Aristotle taught: Reason will shine
Virtue's a habit, a path divine
While stoic Seneca wisely states
Embrace your fate, don't fight the gates

From Heraclitus, I heard the call
All things change, no stream's the same at all
Epictetus warns: What you can control
Is your mind, so free your soul

Descartes declared: I think, therefore I am
While Kant sought reason's guiding hand
Nietzsche cried out: God is dead
Yet we return where we once tread

Hobbes described a world so grim
Man is a wolf: So trust is thin
Rousseau believed in setting us free
But chains still bind eternally

From Heraclitus, I heard the call
All things change, no stream's the same at all
Epictetus warns: What you can control
Is your mind, so free your soul

Between doubt and faith, reason and pain
The wise before us light the way
But the truth, perhaps, none can see
I know nothing is enough for me

From Heraclitus, I heard the call
All things change, no stream's the same at all
Epictetus warns: What you can control
Is your mind, so free your soul

From Heraclitus, I heard the call
All things change, no stream's the same at all

Is your mind, so free your soul
