I empty my cup to be fresh in mind. 
New ideas here I will find 
With past knowledge, my cup is full. 
With such old thoughts, I may look dull. 
For every new thing, I may look blind. 
Empty my cup.

In a beginner's mind, fresh thoughts are lined
Let those line up and let those bind
I'm looking for a change. I want a pull.
Empty my cup. 

For old school of thought, let me not be confined. 
With new thoughts let me be refined. 
Bring in me positive change like a bull.
Let the change make me pocketful. 
The theory of emptying your cup reminds 
Empty my cup.
