No Tech
We have left our technology behind
And ventured out into society
To see if we could start to be more king.
It’s what it really means to be hands free.
It starts with a little conversation
As we probe into each other’s thinking.
There might be some cause for hesitation
To see if our deep beliefs are linking.
We poke and prod trying to uncover,
