Love, such a tender companion yet such a formidable foe.
It let's hearts wander, share, and grow.
Some say love plays a game that you cannot win,
but it's only those who don't believe that lose and cave in.
I may be broken, I may be buried,
but I will always hope, and keep the faith as I ferry.
For the sea of love is infinite,
this ship so sturdy and indefinite,
I will search until I fade,
across the ocean's waves
Until I settle on ONE LOVE so my flame may behave

Embracing this moment
time is nonexistent
captivated and locked on
could never look away
every time those stars shine
you know I'll find a way
to make your heart mine

outside it can feel so divided
but I can confide that it's never with you
I'll write all the reasons I'm delighted
to see the way you brighten the feeling in a room
It's never too late to tell how you feel
acting out in love is more than words make real
I'm not afraid
to tell you I love you
til the sun rises in the west
I will be my best

grace in human form
it don't take nothing for you
It's as easy as summertime
with nothing to do
pace my speedy heart
I just want to rush into it
you make a man want to fly
across the universe

for better or worse

outside it can feel so divided
but I can confide that it's never with you
I'll write all the reasons I'm delighted
to see the way you brighten the feeling in a room
It's never too late to tell how you feel
acting out in love is more than words make real
I'm not afraid
to tell you I love you
til the sun rises in the west
I will be my best

Oh my heart
it's unbroken
resurrected by you
all because
I am open
to let your love come through
Oh our love
can be unspoken
because we know it's true
And I will
never be choking
on the love you feed me, love you feed me

outside it can feel so divided
but I can confide that it's never with you
I'll write all the reasons I'm delighted
to see the way you brighten the feeling in a room
It's never too late to tell how you feel
acting out in love is more than words make real
I'm not afraid
to tell you I love you
til the sun rises in the west
I will be my very best

I am a vessel
waiting to be filled with doubts and reason
waiting to hear the songs that wave in the atmosphere
let your influence flow so that we all can pollute our seasons

without a blend of innocence and curiosity
you cannot have clay that molds to your liking
at least not to your tasteless velocity
rushing away any thought of magic

at one point nothing needed definition
life was all and pure to the touch
connection gave us premonition
to a universe of one

Downwards is the direction of a new soul
to land and welcome the progress
purpose and destiny do not have their hold
for we question instead of taking the chance to cherish

Now a war exists to fight for the past
while building a narcissistic future
we grudge and we pride in a false ability to last
when the cycle and spiral is infinite

we are dust for now
energy to be
a dimensional vow
spoken continuously

I am a vessel

I know this place well
It is where I dwell
At times it can be forgotten
Ergo it is my shell

Reverberation fabricates strings and lines that demonstrate
Echos driven back to source with insanity to placate

Lessons are never learned within such solitude
Until a rupture occurs defeating meaningless platitudes

Fundamental discretion against complacent and ill-comforts
Do not take away visibility from the truth that sometimes hurts

Cracks emerge, illumination transcending
A surge, then an urge to crush this shell circumventing

I know this place well
It is where I dwell
In time I do remember
Ergo I leave my shell

Thunder in the stomp and lightning in the palms
Heavy and dense, the collision is coming on
Strong surges coursing through as the motions expand the mass
Intimidation in the fierce force of augmentation beyond grasp

Remaining in stance against the currents of evil
A Stone in the flow of truth's retrieval
Erosion spreading essence through the seasons of ice and fire
Smoothing into perfection's quest and desire

The master and student mindset sustaining technique's finesse
Following the steps into gathering change best
Replacing hollow space, the nothingness with breath
Then breaking through the base of still chakra's in the chest

Bring substance to the vortex, revolutionary spins
Balanced power, the coagulation over wounds begins
Leaping to light then back like a star to earth
Creating the weight that's needed for foundation and rebirth

Be aware, the nature of fate is well predicted
With eyes wide watch the wing of the butterfly
turn tides into hurricanes twisting
Developed and balanced
spiritual evolution enhanced
electromagnetism push and pull control the chance
Behold the spectrum
prismatic fabrication
Zoom into the microcosm inner seam magnification
See where it leads
Know where it's led
Obtain the needle
Then weave your own thread

One soul to awaken
Two souls to make love
Three souls officiate a family
Five elements to keep in balance
Eight gateways to filter through
Thirteen to make it true
Twenty-one to set in stone
Thirty-four to seven the circuitry in I AM the will atones

Come lay beneath the skylight
At a time when it's calm and quiet
There's always a strangeness within the silence
It heightens as the contiguous melodies crescendo without a pilot

Thoughts embraced are pushed aside for this moment
To catch the breath in the night with rhythm as a component
Still like the stem, of a flower unveiling the crown
Deepening down as time is frozen  to claim the golden exponent

Midnight brings whimsical strings plucked by the creatures that hail
Nature springs underneath man's dreams; Those clouds that we sail
Through aural communication comes the cerebral provocation
That latent faculties synchronize and incite with an inhale, then exhale

This world is like a moving tapestry
Vivid
The spirit behind creation and artistry
Kaleidoscopic
Beyond the two dimensional replica
The amaranthine beauty
Eyes of mecca
So many living pieces moving in and out, to and fro
The omnipresence
Sometimes you can see the universe breathing
The quintessence
At other times you can feel it's heart beat
The omniscient rhythm
The peripherals of our pineal show that
Without brain schism
Our intuition guides it
When we listen
Each thread lined with color after color
In time they glisten
Dyed and placed in felicitous lay
Destined for unification
To create a mastery of life
Orderly amalgamation

You bleed it out and let it drip down
The body that is left
tortured by the sorrows of
a fool who's life transgressed
I can see the wounds are left open
though that isn't what you said
You carry on thinking you're healing
but you're leaving a trail of death

On golden shining days, you can see the light
But when it comes, the storm you ride you let it sweep you away
Oh I want to find a way to tear open the sky
To show you all there are no strings
You can live your life

Oh I need control
So I think I won't lose my soul
to the nothing I can't see
why are they looking at me
Oh I need control

A time will come when you realize
You're wasting precious time
Speaking out about the change that's hindered by your breath
I don't know if anyone's told you but I feel you won't accept
That the broken ones can only stay broken
if you blame somebody else

On golden shining days, you can see the light
But when it comes, the storm you ride you let it sweep you away
Oh I want to find a way to tear open the sky
To show you all there are no strings
You can live your life

Oh I need control
So I think I won't lose my soul
to the nothing I can't see
why are they looking at me
Oh I need control

Love, La La, Love, La La Love, La La Love

No I won't let it go
not until my grave
that's what they say
So Show go on and show
Show off your pride
See what that does for you

In such little time our universe was completely reordered
We never knew what really mattered until our love found a soul
Crossing the divides, the edges and borders
To meet in the middle to make our family's consciousness whole

Finding your soulmate is a beauty of it's own
Then when you create with that love, everything gets brighter, better
A new light inside, brought out to mark how we've grown
The purity of destiny and choice finding a center

It's impossible to understand what a gift a child can be
Until you're blessed with one who's smile could melt the coldest ice
Harmony, when we see your eyes you truly set us free
You pierce the heart with innocence so precise

Remember as the years go by and you read these words
That one is felt above all but love, and that's unconditional
You are a blessing to your parents and the earth
The fact that we get to journey with you is additional

We will always praise you for your ups and light the fire of inspiration
We will always raise you from your falls and teach you the right invocations
We will always show you that we are human too and are always learning just like you
And we will always teach you that the most powerful words in the world are....I ...Love...You!!!

Happy Birthday Harmony Jade!

Even the greatest moments, calmest actions, most peaceful energy, would be unable to tear it off once it sticks
it winds you up for everything and causes one to just pace instead
Eyes get dizzy from observation of another's and can assimilate the same hold
Tension continues to escalate and bottling it up only makes the explosion imminent
No one likes it
Some look to escape through things that actually increase it
An insanity I've dealt with and still resisting
Depravity of vice while the resuscitation of life simultaneously reacts from one thought and act of will
It's hell to deal with
I think the void between two lives would be more difficult than this
At least then you could be fascinated by the new journey
Than to continue the same and battle the duality of choosing a side
Or dealing with human ordeals such as quitting smoking or relationships
Decisions can create a hold on you, but when it's out of nowhere....
The confusion continues the hold

Before the mist cleared and the gates opened
A  bright star shot straight up in the heavens
emanating freedom fiercely
A dark dragon followed...stalking his prey

The star flew and flew with uncharted speeds
Until it reached the edge of the universe
The dragon mimicked every move of the star
Through and through to that mysterious edge

As the dragon approached the star he became puzzled
Presuming that the star had been chaste
Only to find a grinning blade in the fangs of Sirius
The cunning companion of Orion

Now the two stood tall, eye to eye
Each roar echoed throughout
A flash and blast, collision beyond grasp
Then the dragon took flight after seeing his own fears

For the wolf's heart was pure
Which reflected the dragon's demons
Disturbing the dragon's focus
exposing his true nature

The dragon blew flames ablaze behind at the wolf as he took to the sky
Only to have them brush away from the incandescent, invulnerable fur and flame of the star
The beast took hold of the dragon's tail by his claws and climbed to it's head
With a strike of ferocity the star came down with the dragon's eyes

As the wolf stood strong with his trophy
The dragon did cry and then fell in a frenzy down the edge of reality
The wolf gave the eyes to his sons
So that dragon would have to beg or fight a wolf
If he were to ever gain his eyes  into this world again

Being is more than nothing and nothing is more than not

Something is not defined and everything is what I forgot.

Always is never the truth and sometimes is only a part

Certainty is where we are headed and confusion is where we start

Talk about the words you say you want to live by
then throw them away like a cheap toy you wanted at the time
act like you're trying to be special and tell me you want to be different
but then go right back to where you left off and watch the days fly

Lose meaning to you everytime you contradict yourself
hang a rope and say it's for the hypocrites of life
then wrap ot around your neck with the same fake smile you grab from the shelf
Take your blade and make sure you cut me so that it's not a dull knife

I see so many who tell me they're better than the rest
then fall just like them all because you try to fit in with their puzzle
you're better than that so why can't you see the weight you place on your chest?
I guess it's from the rat race that you let the fog make your eyes hazy

Tell me you're ready for change, but then run right into that brick wall again
blame the others for your mistakes when it's all self inflicted
cast a mist over everyone who gets to be just as dense in the end
Hopefully with faith you'll see the truth and then the shame shall be lifted

I see the stars during day
with young and old just like me
dark grey blue clouds
behind a burnt calico tree
velvet lightning from my fingertips
kissing and true words only from our lips
multicolored raindrops bursting to the ground
and when we speak we echo all around
we echo all around
echo all around
we echo all around
echo
I don't see it and I don't care about what it should have been
all I see is what I love
and what I really miss
don't complain I'm not there
I'm in a better place
this is my stop I got my grin
if only you could see my face

Mountains green and full of waves
coming from a smooth warm breeze
animals free and untamed
calm with their spirit just the same
no room for time because it doesn't exist
free your mind and center into bliss
open up your heart and grab yourself a brush
think of nothing tragic
you got a magic canvas
That will echo all around us
it'll echo all around us
it'll echo
it'll echo all around us
oh echo

I don't see it and I don't care about what it should have been
all I see is what I love
and what I really miss
don't complain I'm not there
I'm in a better place
this is my stop I got my grin
if only you could see my face

A golden silhouette upon the shadows from the sun
the lion sleeps within my pride
while the wolf howls at night
they rule my land when I'm gone
searching for my queen
to take her out of this world
and back into my dreams

who you are
is exactly who I am
who we are is different when you understand
who you are
is exactly who I am
who we are is different when you understand

I don't see it and I don't care about what it should have been
all I see is what I love
and what I really miss
don't complain I'm not there
I'm in a better place
this is my stop I got my grin
if only you could see my face

I....
need some help
In time....
I'll do it by myself
Why do I have to show it
after all my stubborn ways
begin to change then change
again
I react
can't face the facts
Increasing the feeling of life in and around my eyes
Rise to the dawn against the darkness in night
Finding a centering
While becoming the revolution
Hold on to gravity
The spirit of evolution
Oh yeah
It's coming in
Good intentions
By all of my friends
The earth is healing
I'm listening
Perhaps together
We'll shift and sing
Call life, what you will
It can be rough
I love it still
I've had, so many moments alone
and vulnerable
But now,
I finally found my own
and I'm coming back home
We all get what we deserve
It all depends on the character you serve
Play your part and seek your heart
Manifest it all at start

Who can mimic a mirror?
Only the shape of it can alter
Stand one in front of the other and travel to where you kneel before the throne
The only limitation ever known

Cruise along the starlit highway
Unless you know a better way
I'm not holding on
The currents strong always
At the edge before the fall
Just a little tip
I'd wake up and learn to fly
Or grab onto the stream's vines

Only fear can drop the floor away  
Debating or hesitating can doubt the world in vain
We'll all find a way out

Have I a lost a piece or found one
I can't tell if the puzzles even getting there
Auto-pilot engage action
Sometimes we like the cruise control
Letting fate direct the soul

Cruise along the starlit highway
Unless you know a better way
I'm not holding on
The currents strong always
At the edge before the fall
Just a little tip
I'd wake up and learn to fly
Or grab onto the stream's vines

Only fear can drop the floor away  
Debating or hesitating can doubt the world in vain
We'll all find a way out
find... a ...way... out
find ...a.. way... out...

Save the fight for the demons that come
Don't **** the night
Just dance the spirit rite
Unleash a force that is ready to go
No, you cannot contain it!
Oh we can be a better being
Make the focal point the bigger picture
Look into the space inside of every single place and find
Nothing is was it seems
The valley between the mind screams
To unlock the world

External energy of unfocused origins
Drawn in and held with nowhere to release
Can cause a vessel to explode into nothingness
Unleash I preach and beseech

To channel and follow through with proper reception
Sustaining the flow and fusion in perception
Can create a harmonic weave between spirit and body
As the mind, the plant from seed of divinity's resurrection

Forgetting our practice and purpose in action
Hollowing the mighty tree we've reached
Will make for the implosion of the heart and mind
Desire and satisfaction's meet out of reach

Bring it in and carry it deep
Let it out and see with eyes wide
discern the instruments and follow the melody
Relieve yourself of pusillanimity and be your guide
Keep it moving
Keep it steady
Keep your aim

I am the son of Mars for there is war in me
Though I am the son of Earth, for my seed was planted here to grow in peace
I am the companion of Venus, sister to my travels
I was the harvest of Saturn who teaches me diligence and awareness
My heart lies with the sun
the lion fixed of my fire
my muse in the sky
The ram's fire burns strong and bright
under it's light my ancestors lived
these myths may hold more
each with our storms and dense places
we must know
truth is stranger than fiction
I follow the stars
I follow the stories
the lines draw themselves
to the conscious voyage
of combined thoughts
together in act
Born to discover
And continue to ask
We fidget for transcendence
yet our task is to be still
delving for sedation
then weakening the will
Hold on, keep hold, get it back, let go
the focus is in driving through the chaos in your flow
Balance out your magnetism look for the grid and see
Without our spirit's energy
Ascension is a dream

All our time
Is it worth?...

Being spent on running away

As they say
Through the years...

That's just how it goes

I don't think
I want in...

If I'm losing anything that's part of me

For a cause,
causes loss...

If you have to win it with fear

You can't be honest with yourself
If all the trust is gone
You could be lying to someone else
And still you carry on
But surely life has a funny kind of way
To bare the truth and set you free
I won't be covered in chains anymore
For my **life has just begun

Preheat discrete on the streets
Wavy vision at the rim off the beat
Suppression for safety of surrounding innocent feet
Boiling up against restraint's imminent defeat

light bulb brightens
the sky dims down
big bang motion
aftermath sound

Keeping quiet too long creates this song
exploding a millions times over until more right than wrong

ready to break
ready to scream
ready to challenge the hope of a dream

Solar flare taste of true stellar power
White hole waste within way of cosmic hour

Time to let go and expose the flame
insanity's continuity disembodied today
consciousness expands the change
Unleashing fury's insurmountable reign

Cool the temperature because you're causing immense friction
That I cant follow because of the wild wind whistling
From your speed up and down mood swinging no decision
on the thought at hand where's your plan stan are you listening?

Im sick and tired of people talking big but walking in the shadows
Shut it up unless you step it up and stop acting so small and shallow
In your ignorance nothing is fixed and you remain shameful and hollow
We have to open more doors to afford a better connection to the main core so follow

Dont speak until you're spoken to or if you know what you're sayin is worth the weight of looking like a fool
If it's for being cool then you can sit back on the stool because this game doesnt exist that you long and drool for

I'm trying to soar but I feel torn because my heart is worn on the sleeve for everybody
and its slowly rotting like the earth that we've all forgotten while we're beating and robbing from ourselves and the soul of the world taking innocence from the boys and the girls and making them dealing with the broken promises of granted wishes as long as they give all of their remniscing to the past and continue to fall just like their parent's and hit the wall shotgun call but then they're missing the lessons that taught them along the journey that teaches us how to be strong im pleasing the universe while righting the wrong.

I want to watch you rise and watch you set
I want your heat that makes me sweat
I'd sacrifice my heart just to gain your grace
Your light consumes and burns my face
Capable of turning worlds into ash
Yet you choose to cast what shows me a path

No moon can hide your shine in my eyes
Though you are exposed mystery is your guise
Change my skin as you come over me
Your warmth sinks deep keeping a sober me
You can be the day and I'll be the night
The eclipse will be our love in sight

Your soul is a star waiting to be a nova
The burst you'll have will put the universe in a coma
I look forward to being in the middle of it all
To feel your flames blast through the wall
Color the cosmos with your rays
Because you are my sun I will forever gaze

Divine intervention,
comes through your intention.
No need to mention;
the name is exception.
Pay your attention,
to domain and dimension.

This is not a civil home
about the time to grab the phone
Cuz now the feelings have arised
but it was never a surprise
the way you acted was all wrong
when you broke me down it made you strong
I hated all my jealousy
but you never gave a chance to letting me speak
setting pain in motion fast
I tried to mend a broken past
but I knew the moment would never last
now the year's have grown me up
pretty sure I've learned enough
to know the error of my ways
a valid fact you'll never change
don't even try to be my friend
don't even try to hold my hand
don't even try to tell that I'm back in your mind again
play the card like
baby you don't understand I'm crazy for you
I had to leave to realize your worth I didn't mean to hurt you
well I hope you know you did
didn't even think that I could live
I've analyzed the pro's and con's
now to me your dead and gone

Is it ever going to go away
It starts on the inside
the one that no one asks to stay
the slide I fight but still contrive

Start at zero, rise then fall
the ground keeps rising so I'll stand tall

Compulsion built by the ego's indulgence
divulging wilt's the universe's repulsion
Subconscious whims to recognize
the prime elect to analyze

Creature's time spent on watching themselves
while truth like an old toy sits upon the shelf
Define dignity by humanity's degradation
the willingness of every nation

Nuclear unanimity, will never start from the surface or the boundaries beyond
It comes from the origin within a navel energetic pond
The mind collects, stores in the belly, transforms in the heart, then comes glandular manifestation
The armistice of enmity and the achievement of a fool's paradise through all generations

What kind of light will you freeze?
What temple will you create?
Or will it all be your temple
Will you bring the stagnation of light or keep our existence in flux?

I look for peace in this world
but my instinctual thirst tells me other wise
I think of women, battle, and love
yet which does my heart really lie
I sit in the dark playing thoughts and day dreams
at times they will lead to ideas of blood sport
and myself being the main attraction
strategies of how I would defeat my enemy taunt me
into becoming a monster
from only thoughts my heart does race
I long for the man worthy to see my intentions
I have not found him yet
I have been pushed
many attempt to instigate
yet I do not move for them
I do not let their battle be mine
Never do I fall short of courage
but I save my fists for better purposes
I could let go and be any other animal
but I decide to be the smarter kind
My fights for now are mental and spiritual
though I train for the day when my sword will hit flesh
that day will surely bring misery
my rage is not to be controlled
that is why I keep it buried
for the day when I will need it
I shall not waste it on the breath of mere mortal bones
It is meant for demons that walk on the surface
My urge for a taste shall be settled
so in the time of my wait
I make use of knowledge, love and freedom
for they will be what I fight for

You will see that you are right
but there is something beyond all this light
beyond all the theories and thoughts unexplained
something powerful and higher passed all caught by flames

take a breath and see that it exists in truth
the power will remain in wisdom given to youth
told by experience of pleasure and pain
something dear to hold like a precious moment in the rain

It's fine to believe all that you wish
the more you search the enlightenment shall come faster
of greater hope and faith tighter than a cyclone's twist

I plan to find God and understand his might
I know he's there that's why I don't doubt or fear
all the thoughts that bring more questions, because they bring more to write

I thought everything slowed down
instead I was the one who picked up velocity
So fast I can actually see sound
What was once invisible to the naked eye
comes in a flash with such ferocity
and then like a fire fly with a soft glow and gentle float

particular particles in molecular motion
breaking boundaries and serving stimulation
directing definition to fabricate function
tumultuously tearing to synchronistic systems

Wires, strings, ripples, waves
their shape and nature being the essence
their interaction becoming the center of change
"Can you tug, tie, splash or collide in this universe?"
"Yes"
But can you see where it is you are doing this in the pattern?"
"..."
"Learn to know, watch the rebound"

Awareness within brought to the external against the external, to flow internally at all times
through practice and patience
finesse and will
fate becomes a tool

Hear me out lately
Ya know the dark storm is coming
it's closing out the lighted sky
without a sound
yeah the beast is a rumblin
through the thunder hear his cries
challenging me to fight
and I won't pass it down

Yeah he won't spin me around
the devil is on my back
and I find
I'm weak and blind when he attacks
and sometimes
I give in to temptress gaze
releasing reason to the animal's instinct

Listen close baby
hear my guitar strumming
whisper off the tainted words
like it's not a crime
yeah here he comes a creepin
binding down the house
collapsing all of the walls
twisted down to the ground

Yeah he won't spin me around
the devil is on my back
and I find
I'm weak and blind when he attacks
and sometimes
I give in to temptress gaze
releasing reason to the animal's instinct

Oh you can slither all you want inside
but I will never let you out
contain the burning blades I seek to sacrifice
though it causes all the pain and scars
that toughen out my hide
the stronger I become to hold on through the night
I will never die...

Yeah he won't spin me around
the devil is on my back
and I find
I'm weak and blind when he attacks
and sometimes
I give in to temptress gaze
releasing reason to the animal's instinct
reflecting seasons into the end of days

And I know it's worth fighting
worth fighting for

Show my reason
reason for change

Nightmare disguised as a dream
Should I be waking soon
Or is this as it seems to be?

It's time to uncover the truth
I'm sick of waiting
tell me how about you?

Oh it could be the weather
acting a little weird
But I don't see the pleasure
In knowing that it's here
We've got to get it together
Harmony is clear
though much is here to heal
the power can be real
transmuting lead to gold
you cannot have the soul to steal

I can see the demon's eyes are rising up at me
I can recognize the ego's guise is no surprise
I have my moments when it seems like I'm just circling
I gotta get out of here
I gotta get out of here!
Doing nothing after thinking life just needs an edge
In contradiction we collapse and finally see the end
A choice your making when you desensitize
Open up your eyes
Wake up your mind

I've been roaming around trying to find a home
I've been treading ground for so very long
Reaching into depths and lighting every corner of my soul
I won't be finished until I make it all my home

Fueling up the love and then setting it all on fire
Burning eternally, diminishing desire

All there will be to remember, are the thoughts I believe and render
A kiss can hold all the words that are told and speak them with ease and splendor
The journey does twist and turn sometimes in directions unexplained to the heart and mind
But as we grow old I pray the truth unfolds so then we understand this grand and beautiful design
We're trapped if we trap ourselves, and my journey is not to hell
So my worry is gone and I say so long to the evils that trip and fail

I found myself a partner, she's loyal, hopeful and free
We've created ourselves a universe, to leave our mark in destiny
infinite in wonder, our love, will find a home
planting ourselves into blessed soil, fully grown then set in stone we'll transgress then rest in peace

Fueling up the love and then setting it all on fire
Burning eternally, diminishing desire

And when I finally root myself, the spirit will spread it's wings
encircling like a beacon, to all the angels that sing
beckoning their light to gather into sight
Argent with pure protection, their shields so dazzling

Fueling up the love and then setting it all on fire
Burning eternally, diminishing desire

All there will be to remember, are the thoughts I believe and render
A kiss can hold all the words that are told and speak them with ease and splendor
The journey does twist and turn sometimes in directions unexplained to the heart and mind
But as we grow old I pray the truth unfolds so then we understand this grand and beautiful design
We're trapped if we trap ourselves, and my journey is not to hell
So my worry is gone and I say so long to the evils that trip and fail

Oh you know how life can start out rough
but it doesn't make the mark of a man
It's how he pushes through when everything gets tough
and in the end he knows who he is

I met a man about a quarter century ago
who showed me the best example of this
his voice was made of thunder exciting my nerves and bone
learning how he knew how to live

Until they call you home
you don't have to know
but when they call you home
you've got to say "I'm just me"
when they call you home
you have to know
because I know
yes I know

He showed how a man can learn to make progress
As soon he can understand
Life is not always about the common sense
Timing is part of God's plan

There isn't much that you can do about it
and nothing fast enough to try to stop it
my lesson learned in life is that this is not the end
So I'll see you on the other side my friend

Until they call you home
you won't have to know
and when they call you home
you have to say "I am free"
and when they call you home
you have to know
because I know
yes I know

That you're finally free

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
