Without Theory Experience is Blind


With the process of doubt, we can find some things out.
Let's clear all the thoughts from our head,
we'll replace them with, clear, distinct ones instead.
Some of these thoughts, intuitively are known,
and some of these thoughts, deductively are shown,
by nothing but reason alone.
I'm thinking, so I'm existing.
God is perfect, so God exists.

With your process of doubt, you can't find something out.
You think you know who you are, but all our knowing's in doubt.
Experience will fall short, passion and custom are king.
You're lost in your thought, and to reason you cling,
but you're just a bundle, like a rope, or a string.
You do not understand the motivational spring.
Your mind depends upon your body,
You cannot prove that God exists.

You're moving just a little too fast for me,
all I want to do is understand what I see.
Some things we know, others we can't.
I'm thinking it through and I think I am right,
I'm laying out the theory in the books that I write.
Pure reason alone can't discover the self.
And pure reason cannot prove existence,
without concepts experience is blind.
Without experience my concepts are all empty.
Don't follow your desires, do what reason requires.

And pure reason cannot prove existence,
without concepts experience is blind.
Without experience my concepts are all empty.
My solution will pass the test of time.

The starry skies above him, the moral law within him.
The starry skies above him, the moral law within him.
