I, feel peaceful in the calm of the morning
I, don't feel no sense of longing in the morning
I, feel free to be myself so **** everyone else
I, feel the peace and calm in the morning

I look into my soul and contemplate
Why am I here on this earth today?
You say that you feel like the world is against you
Well maybe it's because you fighting it
Going with the flow is hard for me
But it's a challenge that I think is long overdue
It's a scary to relinquish your control
But it's something that I think we all must do
I'm always searching for the answers to my questions
And lord knows that I got many of them
My whole spirit feels connected in the early morning
A rush of calm fills my whole body
In the midst of this calm I pray it never leaves
That it stays with me for eternity
But we all know that ain't gonna happen
So I try to just stay in the moment and enjoy it joyfully

I, feel peaceful in the calm of the morning
I, don't feel no sense of longing in the morning
I, feel free to be myself so **** everyone else
I, feel the peace and calm in the morning

A black boy walked down a path one day
A path of destruction of himself all day
Many horrors flowed down that path that he saw
But all the horrors were of his own soul
It's a scary thing to go face to face with your truths
We all think that we know the code for the world
But really we all just going through something
Many of us are running away from something
Back to the boy on the road or path
He looked at himself and confused like me in math
So many emotions going on in his soul
So many unresolved hurt in his world
He asks the Lord everyday for guidance
He prays that he'll see brighter days
But he knows he's probably gonna have to change his ways
His only fear is that he'll lose himself within the next few days
are you the boy?
