The I, Me Doctrine

I am a man,
I am my own man.
I am the captain of my destiny!
I am a derelict tossed in the waves.
I am an island!
I'm in the middle of an endless sea.

Which me, is the real me?

You are a Light in a world of darkness.
I am a spark,
Quick to start, and gone in an instant.

You are Truth in the hours of lies.
I am a second,
and I don't hold on for long.

Which me is the real me?
Where's the light that I'm called to shine?
What's the truth that should fall from my lips?

Who's the I, that I'm supposed to be?

Look North or South,
Look East or West,
Look where you like,
His way's the best.
