Before Pulling the Trigger

Written by Doug Goodman. April 1, 2009

There's another unseen force
That's not taught in physics
Scientists don't acknowledge it
But there's evidence of its influence

There's no unit of measure
Just terms of more and less
There appear to be no laws that govern
It's outcome or effectiveness

This force, it has a trigger
That's found in the heart of man
It's pulled when there's a choice that's made
A shot, a bullet, then BAM!

Though there's no unit of measure
On this make no mistake
When a shot is fired
The force released is great

Action causes a reaction
In the realm of what we believe
It's an unseen force and there's an outcome
Beyond what we can conceive

Doctors say the parietal lobe
Is where the power's released
To them it all makes perfect sense
When their patients' odds increase

There's roots found in religion
But none hold exclusive rights
To the precept "If you only have faith"
You'll find power... you just might

It's loaded, there's one in the chamber
Found in every man
Everyday there are many targets
A shot, a bullet, then BAM!

There's a gun that we're packin'
The potential, there's none bigger
So be sure to take careful aim
Before pulling the trigger
So be sure to take careful aim
Before pulling the trigger
So be sure to take careful aim
Before pulling that trigger
