May be I should get me a 9-5
Many say it is a piece of cake
May be I should get me a slice
Many friends I meet are fake
May be I should be more wise

What now
I trod on a slippery slop
With axe hanging above me ready to chop
I know not where this road leads
Everything is clear as muddy water
As wild dogs chase
Friends are scarce
What now

Can I get a beer, you bet
Oh yes I can vote
By all means I can go for a draft
It's has eons since I left school
All documents show am an adult
They will admit me in at local strippers

But, I have only attained age of reason
Now I understand seasons
That there are friendship levels
Now I appreciate solitude
I can say no without the need to explain
Oh I love my new age

Purity of intent drives me now
Not the fear of punishment
Or a dangling carrot
I see with so much clarity
Life is much simpler
Age of reason
You beaut,
Why did it take me so long to be here

Talk is cheap
Everyone can afford to say something
Few people mean what they say
Even less are willing stand by their words
One philosopher advised
Say less than necessary
Leave people guessing
Know the facts before commenting
Choose response over reaction
After all we given one mouth and two ears
Talk less and listen more
Because what you utter, you already know
Listen and you might learn something new

My empress
Heaven knows am deeply impressed
I can't wait
Tonight against you I want to press

Let's lose the crowds
Let me take you to the clouds
Its OK if you wanna be loud
Because tonight its you I wanna pound
Today your deepest secrets will be found

Dangerous
Wild
Untamed
Scary
Creative
A loaded gun
A blank slate
A new dawn
The real freedom
Courageous
No bias
Winged
Please Unshackle my mind

I come to you at dawn
Oh source of my strength
I turn to you in hope
Asking you guide my step
For the climb is steep
Light my way and lighten my burden
I plead


Yesterday's hopes linger on
But today reveals its promise
Time to lace my boots
Yes, I need to soldier on
Yesterday is gone
Tomorrow is not mine
All I have is now, today

Grant me clarity of mind
Let not my spirit be broken
Show me my limits
Let me exploit my strengths
At the end of the day
When I lay on my bed tonight
Even when I be weary and beaten
My heart will sing
For you walked with me today

It's not an easy road
Many see the glamour and the glitter
And think it's a bed of rose
Who feels it knows
Lord help me sustain these blows
From the minute of birth you enter this earth
Obstacles in your way to overcome first
Throughout everyday they seem to get worse
Oh my God cast away this curse
Everybody is trying to make ends meet
Through every way the endeavor
Lord God you see it
No matter what the world may say on the street
Must have to survive, won't accept defeat
Now I'm weary, tired and dreary
Got no time to waste.
