Sometimes I see the Buddha in me
a phrase, a touch, something I see
It touches my heart 
And awakens in me 
A memory of how to be free 
A memory of how to be me
There’s a time the Buddha in me 
Comes to surface 
As if to say 
Remember,
Sometimes I see the Buddha in me
a phrase, a touch, something I see
It touches my heart 
And awakens in me 
A memory of how to be free 
A memory of how to be me
There’s a time the Buddha in me 
Comes to surface 
As if to say 
Remember, life will pass you by 
If you forget to stay alive 
In this moment 
In this place
There’s a time 
The Buddha in me 
Comes to the surface 
As if to see
If I remember
