The Tools We Trust

I turn the lights down with a little voice command Change the channel with a wave, never touch it with my hand Search the skies, search my mind, and somehow it just shows I never learned the code, but I still let it flow We’ve built our world on silent wires, signals passing through the air Every tool we learn to trust can still be turned somewhere We don’t need to fear the spark, but we need to guide the flame Be careful who you follow when the voices sound the same I don’t have to know how it works But I need to know what it’s worth Not a wizard, not divine But the power still aligns Call it PAL or call it fate Use it wisely, don’t sedate It’s the same old story told I don’t have to know... but I should stay bold If we called it something softer, would it calm the storm inside? If we dressed it up in honesty, could we strip away the pride? Just a tool, a helping hand... Or a weapon if it’s planned Every choice is in our grip — we better understand It’s not the tool, it’s how it’s used A gift, a risk, a path to choose Stay awake, don’t drift along Together we are wise, together we are strong We don’t have to know how it works To feel the spark, to see it serve But let’s not lose what makes us whole Our values, our control It’s not fear that makes us grow It’s asking why, and staying slow So I don’t have to know… But I choose to grow
