Lyrics

These stories of mythology
Are simply trying to express
A truth that can't be
Grasped any other way

(Well, I'll be damned)

It's the edge
The interface
Between what can be known
And what is never to be discovered
Because it is the mystery transcendent
Of all human research
The source of life
What, what is it?
No one knows
It's important to live life
With a knowledge of its mystery
Simply put
A mythology is a set of stories, of ideas
That tries to make sense of the world
And our place in it
No special knowledge
Or education is required
You need only a deep interest
In what it means to be alive

There are two kinds of mythology
What is called the right-hand path
The mythology of the village compound
That keeps you fixed
In the context of your world
You grow up here
You live as expected
You live a dignified, successful
Yeah I mean
But like, you know
My goal is like is
Try to do useful things
Try to maximize, probably
The future's good
Make the future exciting
Something you look forward to
You know?
With Tesla, we're like trying to make
Things that people love
There’s not a lot of things
You can buy that you really love
That really give you joy
So rare
So rare
I wish there were more things
I really think, you know
People should give other people
The benefit of the doubt
And assume that they're good
Until proven otherwise
And I think really, most people
Are actually pretty good people
Nobody's perfect

[Chorus]
Most people are good
Most people are good
[Joe Rogan] The vast majority
Most people are good
[Joe Rogan] They have to be
Most people are good
Well, the argument for the simulation
I think, is quite strong
Because if you assume
Any improvements
At all over time
Any improvement
1%, 01%
Just extend the timeframe
Make it a thousand years
A million years
The universe is 138 billion years old
Civilization, if you're very generous
Civilization is maybe seven or 8,000 years old
If you count it from the first writing
This is nothing
This is nothing
