You hold on to your sanity as long as you hold onto yourself
a good musician is the one who writes just to write, just to play a purpose, no, live the purpose, to tell a story
to make a story
The only way we get stuck is when we forget what we're writing for
the real meaning
the truth
you can get wrapped around an idea so strongly that you lose yourself on the thought of it,
how to say it,
how to play it out just right so that others can understand
instead of remembering the reason why you started all along
which was to sing
to enjoy
to embrace
to be entertained pertaining to whatever emotion you're feeling or want to feel
to have the vibrations ringing through your ears
putting you to the frequency level accompanied by the beauty
a mental state, not of euphoria
but of release, an escape from everything but the motion of your body to the sounds
to be what we all look so deeply for
but never quite understand the chains that bind us enough to love it's existence
to be free
music gives us freedom
music makes the real rebels of society
music makes the genuine come out to play
music is what will forever keep us alive
forever telling the memories of the pure, the true,the holy, the one's who never break character
and hold on to what they believe in
I believe in everything, and I believe in me, so who's to say they can't believe in me too?
that's why I'll never stop
because hopefully if I do it right, I'll be giving back to the world while simultaneously gaining it all
by never stopping the songs
by never giving up
someone else will see the light of hope and faith
and won't stop
for the sake of their dreams and aspirations to become a part of reality
If I can just touch one person, then I will have touched them all
If I can keep one mind from falling to limbo
from getting caught up in circles
and instead enjoy the fact they even have what they have
then I will have created the story that continues on in all of us
the story of life
a life of succession
a life of purpose
by the time I can reach out to everyone
I will have already told my story to the next
a neverending purpose, with a never ending soul
that's why we're here
to search within ourselves deeper than anyone else
to lose our sanity before we can even build it
so that we know
what we're building upon is nothing
but everything
we are old and we are new,
we know that existence is true
and the things that we do
so why let it stop when you know you have complete control over your actions?
because you forget what you were writing about in the first place
To end life without influencing someone is a life never lived
it's selfish to say you can't do it, when that's the point to it
no matter what you do you will always give and take
but you will receive more if you outweigh your taking with giving
so keep singing the songs
Love is strong
yet undefineable
as are all emotions
unless there's a purpose
purpose gives purpose
purpose takes purpose
that's why accidents are miracles
God and I both know
that's why I just laugh at the good and the bad
because that's all we'll ever have
and if we all figure this out
we're not going to cease to exist,
ceasing is going back into nothingness and recycling
If we all come to know what I now know
We'll grow into something...fresh
so keep telling the story
keep living the dream
and if you forget what you were writing about, don't end it.....start over
1969 was the last time,
and there were many before it,
we're coming closer to another each day
the closer we get to it
the closer we are to it falling apart afterwards
I'm trying to make this time around, stay for a while
and make it's way to everything
what I'm talking about is a collective consciousness
and it's the reason why I'm writing this...Hope to see you all sooner than later, but not ever never
**Faded Fate**
