When sands grind me bare
and my world's gears stop turning,
I look to the wind
and wait for the sky.
for the sun to rage off of
my range of vision
until stars come out,
instead of looking at feet
I fix to the sky.
my star stares me straight
directly in my third eye
'sit still my son please
I've sat here for years
let me tell you a story
of Earth at its start.
the planet's alive,
a lot like you can't you see,
from fire and storms
mass extinction, death
out of, the earth came to be.
Earth was weak until
she spun her core so
tightly and quickly the wind
came alive. With that
planet earth found a
cure for her fire. She found
beauty in balance,
constructed karma,
founded shifting sands of time,
dynamically brought
concepts of good and
evil to war with each other.
Positioned herself
in her suitable
orbit. Just follow the earth,
sit down, tame the fire.
Spin your existence
like her, and maybe you'll see
there's no need for breath
when wind fills your lungs.
Find your own balance within,
fight your own battle
learn desire serves
to feed flames, continue pain
life makes suffering.
Don't lose this battle
or your forces might make you
stay the same person.
If after you find
yourself trapped up on the moon,
don't fear traveler.
Fleeing far from home
you have started your journey!
One day you may find
Your own heaven place,
a perfect spot just to watch
the cosmos below.
And a star like me,
one day you're destined to be.
transcend all your pain
until we same speak.'
That's why I look to the stars,
through unsurety
I will keep swimming.
Knowing one day full well, I
belong in the sky.
