They say a  l o s t  soul should navigate with the stars

Well I bet they would, if they wondered what they are

Up above the world so high, like a diamond in the sky

Little, clump of stardust, you

The milky way has saw you through

Traveled distances real far

Shooting from exploding stars

Teeny, tiny, star spec, you

Came from old life to start a new

Elements across the sky

That gave birth to the gift of life

Little, spec of stardust you

You are so small, but look how you grew
Lost souls who feel distant from life sometimes need to be reminded where they came from. Look up to the stars and remember what you are.

Breaking news!
Breaking news!
They say life is what you make it

"You there!"
By the news stand,
Stop reading that fake ****

Opinions on papers
Contradicting the facts
Sending minds into spasms
And hypocritical attacks

Breaking news!
Breaking news!
They say life is what you make it

So get out into the world
And start creating your matrix

You can’t let the others
Tell you how it is
Life has no set teacher
But will always give you a quiz

Breaking news!
Breaking news!
They say life is what you make it

The world is full sinners
That try and achieve bliss

They’ll build up their churches
On indian grounds
So they can pray at night
For their sins to sleep sound

Breaking News!
Breaking News!
They say life is what you make it

So pick your poison and choose,
The thoughts you want remit

Argentina Rose
You may not have been birthed in the soil,
and granted,
you will not blossom
when spring melts winters wake
but inside of you
grows a thousand gardens
full of exploding stars.
You are of the earth
and your ashes
have been constructed with stardust,
and set free with the wind.
So you may not have a pretty face,
and your body may hold stories
of too many moonless nights alone.
But if you reach inside,
you will find a forest
for a ribcage
and a restless ocean heart.
So don't ever let anyone tell you
you are nothing.
You are a galaxy
holding a million different planets,
and my dear,
that is not nothing.
