We are nothing but vibrations in the universe This movement is a blessing or a curse In some ways, it’s a choice If my voice is one of honesty My frequency made of decency That is when I let love in Surrounded by my friends I let my life begin again With no thought for the bitter end
But I must remember As I dismember the lies that lock us inside We all have illusions of agency Though the control box has a vacancy And those with misfortune did not choose Their portion of this world The atoms with which they twirl The vortex of thought in which they swirl We are all along for the ride We run and we hide But when physics is applied There’s no free will there to find
So what do we do With this ultimate view? Let’s embrace each sensation Pay attention to creation Not simply seeking elation Or striving for elevation But flowing through the sine curve Merging with each twist and swerve Through the ups and the down Thankful to be around Gratitude for a connection to the ground The mellifluous magic of sound The technicolor infinities that materialize When I bat open my eyes Or begin to fantasize
In this boundless ocean of beauty I can weather the storms Simply passing waveforms Bolstered by the knowledge That nothing last forever But hope is here to stay Merely a second away And even when my skies are gray I remember I am just a string Energetically swinging to and fro And when I touch my fellow threads I glow A spark of connection I make a mental correction Weaving myself into this web of life I am not alone I am safe at home My down is another’s up I cannot understand this pattern All I know is that it matters So I will be thankful every day That I have a chance to play That I may not have a will But I know I am the way
