(both these paragraphs from previous threads)

Move by will alone, to me, means that life emerged from the basic building blocks of the Universe. Whatever the random molecules and different kinds of energy that combined to form life continues to sort of dictate how we act now. Consequently we do not have free will, but a mixture of choice and chemical reactions. To humans it is hard to understand that we operate the same way a toad thinks and feels or how a star forms. Humans like all things in the Universe move by will alone - all connected together to form one cohesive force.


The point of this song is that human beings emerged just like the rest of the natural universe, except humans are able to percieve and be aware. The result of this emergence is hard on humans because we are a product of a chaotic and confusing system (the universe). It is up to humans to use the tool of consciousness to expand upon reality even though we have absolutely NO UNDERSTANDING OF IT. Right in two illustrates how humans are not using consciousness as a tool to expand and understand reality.


This song is about the development of human consciousness and the begining of human evolution. Maynard brings up the first fire man ignited as well as discription of how the universe is a chaotic system. As he said in vicarious the universe is a hostile place and therefore, humans are a product of it. Maynard is illustrating the development of man into this chaotic reality, sort of as if this reality corrupted something that was pure. This song is an attachment to Right in two. Intension disscusses man's entre into reality and Right In Two discusses how man uses reality - the begining and the present.
