Lyrics Soul Searchin' (Remastered) - Horace Silver

What is the meaning of live?
What does my purpose involve?
Do we live but to die?
Or can the puzzle be solved?
What have I done up to now?
Could it be all done in vain?
If my live were to end, what would humanity gain?
I′m soul searching
For the real true values
My mind's working
So it′s up to me to choose.
I've found the meaning in life,
I've found my purpose therein,
Just when we think its through,
That′s when it really begins,
I′m taking hold of my self,
I must assume full command,
If I'm through reaching my goal I must construct a new plan.
I′m soul searching
For the real true values
My mind's working
So it′s up to me to choose.
I'll make a study of life,
I′ll get the books off the shelf,
I must open my mind,
So I can study myself.
What brings the greatest of joy?
What makes me happy my friend?
When I can find a way that I might help other men
I'm soul searching
For the real true values
My mind's working
So it′s up to me to choose.
