to wake up is a chance
at what you want out of this
life.
don't treat it with haste,
don't let it go to waste.

to breathe is to be present,
here, in the trenches of today.
don't let outside voices stay,
don't listen to what they say.
live for today,
live it out your own way.

My thoughts are trapped in a cage
Sometimes full of rage

Wounded on the inside where no one can see
The hurt and pain inside of me

Not being able to express my inner self
I am trapped in need of help

A place where I am trapped in time
A place that is not truly mines

Going over one hurdle after another
The light becomes dimmer why bother

But not far away
I live to see another day

A fresh day that is beautiful and pure
A day when I know there is a cure

Where my thoughts can finally escape
Where the cage opens on time, not late

My heart opens with love
I set aside the rage because of what is above

The comfort that I get when I look into the clouds
Makes me feel good and I say out loud

You can't hold me back rage, you see
My thoughts are pure now and I am finally free

I am free
I am free
I am free

Yeah life happens...
Things that are out of our control take place.
Sometimes the pressure builds up like the magma under a volcano.
And the more we let it simmer and turn into lava, the build up is stronger... The eruption is bigger.


But we've got to remember even if we forget.
That things happen for a reason, each lesson it brings you'll never forget.
It teaches you to be stronger, resilient and makes you stand stronger.
You've just got to remember, that in life you're still blessed.
Blessed in the little things that bring you joy.
Blessed in the souls that give you love and appreciation.


No matter how much life knocks you down, never give up, get up and always show up.
Just remember it's all just one big ride.
It's up to you to get off or enjoy the ride of your life.

Fragile being look up to the skies...
The stars aligned, seek brightness in your haunted eyes.


Lost in a world of your own creation, unable to distinguish the truth and reality from the fog that resides in your head.


Fragile being... Give yourself up to the highest power.
The divine universe will carry away the energy you don't require.


Never surrender to the dark thoughts that swirl in your brain. Just look to the skies, believe and have faith.
