Res Cogitans
[I. Meditations] How can I be sure about the world my eyes are seeing? Is this all the truth or just some kind of coherent dream? What if there's a deceiver god who's playing with my head? How can I be sure if I'm alive or if I'm dead? There must be an evil demon that is pleased to hear my cries Corrupting and seducing me to believe in all its lies I shall no more be deceived by what remains impure I will fight the doubt and in the doubt I will be sure [II. The Four Rules] 1) Evidence: Only accept the undeniable proof 2) Analysis: Dissect the fact to find within the truth 3) Synthesis: Put the pieces together, side by side 4) Remembrance: Nothing to omit, nothing to hide I walk masked Through the valleys of ignorance mist I doubt SongtexteAnd that's the only reason why I exist I walk masked And face this nasty urge to believe I doubt I think, I am, I meditate, I live Cogito ergo sum Cogito ergo sum (sum res cogitans) Cogito ergo sum Cogito ergo sum (sum res cogitans) No evil Shall hide The Truth Free Will Shall be The only law I think, I am, I have a choice: I believe!
