Swami says There is no escape To be who you are. Yes that's right You can run and hide Strategize or divide But there's no escaping Who you are my friend, Yes there's no escaping who you are. When temper flares high sending anger darts awry, Go to the ocean and cool off my friend, Let the waves ripple over you And let this layer wash off in the sea When the blues are blue-- The tears flow From your depths of your soul-- Release this ocean of feeling, Let the sounds of those tears Ring to the ground When joy bubbles into your heart, Weaves a smile on your face, laughs you, tickles you Share this my friend Let it touch another Weave this joy into the Fabric of all life In this moment Be present to who you are You are the one you've Been waiting for, You are the one you've been Wanting to know, No need to run Circle on back to yourself, Swami says there is no escape To be who you are. Be the one.

Swami Says
Swami says There is no escape To be who you are. Yes that's right You can run and hide Strategize or divide But there's no escaping Who you are my friend, Yes there's no escaping who you are. When temper flares high sending anger darts awry, Go to the ocean and cool off my friend, Let the waves ripple over you And let this layer wash off in the sea When the blues are blue-- The tears flow From your depths of your soul-- Release this ocean of feeling, Let the sounds of those tears Ring to the ground When joy bubbles into your heart, Weaves a smile on your face, laughs you, tickles you Share this my friend Let it touch another Weave this joy into the Fabric of all life In this moment Be present to who you are You are the one you've Been waiting for, You are the one you've been Wanting to know, No need to run Circle on back to yourself, Swami says there is no escape To be who you are. Be the one.
I met a swami many years ago, and his words, "You cannot escape who you are" really struck me....and this poem came to life.
