I chained myself to the earth
I planted the seed that grew into many
I chose not the stars
not the heavens
but land and gravity
when you're bigger than the universe
smaller than an atom
made up of matter and empty space
what's the point in floating around?
when there's no one to float with
you tend to be grounded
now it's not like that
I now feel clustered and confused
now I want to float and fly away
You have to take the bad with the good though
once you start something and let it's will be free
you no longer have control of the outcome
which made it all new and fresh
though I see redundancy and monotony in the flesh
repeating the same **** mistakes and learning nothing
have I gone mad?
Or has the world that came from me done so?
I guess that's why intervening now and again
breaking through unnecessary barriers
challenging faith and shedding light on a few things, helps the cause
I can't do it all though, well if I did, then many would lose purpose
that's why I just float so long as it all goes accordingly
unplanned and undefined
it's the point we shall evolve to
funny for one to think life is complicated
it is if there's no purpose
When the time comes those who went through all the trouble
those who were searching with their minds
are going to realize that the mind only seeks
the heart answers
we let our shells rule ourselves sometimes
but the shell only shows what the heart bleeds for
I will admit that it would be complicating to try and understand all that is
but you didn't make it, so how can you know what the artist felt when they were in the process of creation?
there were some points where it was complicating even for myself, but that was when I got closer to the finish line
which did I mention? It doesn't exist.
All in all we all evolve to resolve
from one into many
and many into one
you can look at a puzzle when it's all together and see beauty
but after you take apart the pieces and understand each piece's purpose for it's shape
you then not only see beauty, but beauty with experiential wisdom
I was a void to fill
now I'm full to burst
the void now has a void
for it no longer thirsts
the cycle shall carry on with miracles along the way
that's the way it is
and it will never stay the same
contradiction you may think
but I bring balance in a blink
I chain myself to break the chains
I break the chains to find freedom in new links
until the day when only scars remain
and the spirit of a star reigns
