Fate or Fortune
What He has written I have to comply
My duty declares my honor and grace
I have been created as a bird in the sky
Then I brought down to the disgrace

To taste all the idiosyncrasies of life
To go thru the different tricks in vogue
I have to pass and go through the strife
To pay price a sin committed as rogue

In the paradise and to be shunted out
To ask for forgiveness and redemption
I became the victim of Satan the tout
And I have to get my place as passion

Greedy rich still take from the poor
seem to think they still need more
If I had one wish it would be
to try to help and make us free

I'd wish all on earth have one wish
from man to dog and from cat to fish
This one wish would come with a rule
to keep it fair and make no one a fool

You could only wish for another
maybe dad, mother, sister or brother
Couldn't share or make no deals
just to see how good generosity feels

When best of plans have been laid
all the wishes should be made
to change these people make them see
you don't need stuff to be happy!

Face covered by a mask
you go to its house to ask
if it had spare something sweet
for you and you're friends to eat

To you this house feels different
this really should be significant
Just hope trespassing it forgives
as something evil this way lives

You had no invitation
and you are no blood relation
yet into its yard you enter
so in its mind you centre

Now you can hear it's breathing
it's too late to think of leaving
Just know your times defeated
your about to be Tricked not Treated

Around 4.6 billion years ago
all of our existence started to grow
Dust and gas started churning
and our sun slowly started burning

Speed it gathered as it turned
crushing in all the dust it burned
Melting metal in its concavity
spinning increased its gravity

The larger rocks around it floats
they're not making wakes like boats
Solar system orbits underpinning
as around it they all started spinning

Planets formed in similar ways
they all formed in years not days
A multibillion to say it accurately
formed by timing it immaculately

Now we all live on one of these
3rd planet out blue covered in seas
Lucky are we at least for now
until we mess this up somehow

I wonder now
If I would
travel back 
if you could 

To times gone by 
live them again
see if moments 
feel the same 

But time is like this 
it has its reason's
It has to change 
just like the seasons 

So new can come 
and old can go
just like a river 
it has to flow

And those we've lost 
we have to know
you can't see again
to let them go

cause if we could
in grieving time 
change it all
and redefine

bring them back to
see there face again
yet we'd still know
and feel the pain

We'd still do it and
repect no border
so time it has
to stay in order

I hear of your gods yet see no proof
how can this be if this is the truth
they say that he created me 
and every single thing that I do see

Did he create me or are they wrong
I hear they still sing and praise in song
but in this world all I tend to see 
is greed and a lack of humanity

This world is worsening day after day
so wait for your god but I wont delay
believe what you like but I believe in me 
and only us can change what we do see

And too your gods I do declare 
until we meet I will not share
in praising them I will not try
unless this world they justify

Sunlight glows start's ascending 
a new world lit by light so true
darkness fades as night is ending 
shadows fade now lit right through 

Corners deep cracks no hiding
contrast to a night time frame
animals adapted now no finding 
nothing changed yet non the same

Once all hidden now is showing 
light's up earths fair vanity
sky so blue clouds are glowing 
distance seen in clarity

Golden now as day is ending 
darkness creeps the night is soon
goodbye waves the sun descending 
cheered on by the eager moon
