Horace Silver - Soul Searchin'
What is the meaning of life?
What does my purpose involve?
Do we live but to die, or can the puzzle be solved?
What have I done up to now, could it be all done in vain?
If my life were to end what would humanity gain?
★ Chorus ★
I'm soul searchin'
For the real truth that I use
My mind's workin'
So it's up to me to choose
★ Verse 2 ★
I've found the meaning of life
I've found my purpose therein
Just when we think it's through that's when it really begins
I'm taking hold of myself, I must assume full command
If I'm to rеach my goal then I must construct a new plan
★ Chorus ★
I'm soul searchin'
For thе real truth that I use
My mind's workin'
So it's up to me to choose
★ Verse 3 ★
I'll make a study of life
I'll get the books off the shelves
I must open my mind, so I can study myself
What brings the greatest of joy, what makes me happy my friend
When I can find a way that I might help other men
★ Chorus ★
I'm soul searchin'
Of a real truth that I use
My mind's workin'
So it's up to me to choose
