I'll walk a million miles,
In the rain and cold,
Overcoming besetting trials,
Just to get to you;

I'll sail across the sea,
Even if my boat will break,
No Matter what may be,
I'll get to you;

i'll fly across the sky,
In a stormy weather,
Even if i'll have to cry,
I must get to you;

i'll stay awake at night,
No matter what it cost,
Even if i have to fight,
I will get to you.

They say "a spell is on my mind-
it is all a waste of time,
And that my love is blind"
I must get to you;

No matter how long the time,
No matter how far you are,
If i'll spend the last dime,
I must get to you.

You are the pillar of my heart,
The fragrance of my life,
Without you i'll fall apart,
I certainly must get to you.

This girl that i'll mention,
Love her beyond expression;
They said it's a mixed reaction,
I say it's their misconception.

She came during my worst depression,
Showed me true love and affection;
saw life in a whole new dimension,
No doubt i have chosen a true direction.

We've disagreed in certain situations,
But had sweet reconcilation,
Even in sour emotion,
We maintained undeterred attraction.

Never considered seperation,
Repulsing intermittent distraction,
No rules, no regulations,
But respect and honest devotion.

A product of supreme creation,
No doubt we're a perfect combination,
May the almighty strengthen our union,
And increase us beyond measurable proportion.

There are friends who i miss so much,
it's hard to go on in life without thinking of them;
there were days in which we had fun,
so much that these days do not feel the same.

There was a world which i had to let go of,
inorder to really enjoy this new one;
and paths that i left far behind,
in order to make a vital turn.

Although, i don't alway get the company i want,
but i often get the company i need;
even though i get a little bit confused attimes,
i still allow my spirit to take the lead.

If you learn to be alone,
you won't feel too lonely when your friends are gone;
and when they leave-not based on a fight,
be sure that one day they will return.

It could be that they were to busy in search of a better life,
therefore, it is expected that you do the same;
so that when you all come back together to re-unite,
it will be celebration of success without shame.

Be happy if you are still moving on;
Let the pace not be in your feet but your heart,
so that when conditions are good or bad,
you can alway choose to be slow or fast.

Be ready for a change everytime,
for this is exactly what life is about.
and don't remain for too long where you are,
it is best you take a trip from north to south.

We could loose a loved one along the way,
but when they are gone, they ar gone;
And even though we hurt or smile behind them,
come on guys, life will still go on.

Therefore, when a man gets older,
his dependency becomes thinner,
his responsibilities increases further,
while it's expected of him to think better.

I wrote a song for the world,
reminding it of it's god.
A song for the young and old,
a song for the timid and bold;

a no ordinary song,
one that makes men belong,
a letter straight from hell,
having no truth to tell;

it could revive you
and could confuse you,
keeping you bond for years,
and bringing you close to tears;

Deep inside i am scared
of the visions in my head.
Of a world that has gone wrong
all because of one song;

Parents gone astray,
friends mock and betray,
pastors cheat and fornicate,
leaders lie and dictate;

i've given men what they want,
a path to where they will be burnt;
and though they cry, they will remain,
in a lifetime of discord and pain.

The music in my head-
it's in the blowing of the wind against a leaf,
it awakens the dead,
it eases the burden of grief.

The music in my heart-
it's in the smashing of the waves against the shore,
it unites good and bad,
it relieves the pain in a broken wound and sore.

The music in my life-
it is in every tinkling sound,
it takes away strife,
it lifts the fallen off the ground.

The music in my mind-
it's in the chirping of the bird,
it is vision to the blind,
and everlasting life to the dead.

The music that i hear-
it's neither mine nor thine,
it is everywhere,
so let us wine and dine.

They grow in unattractive places,
yet, they are most adored.
Like a lilly you are darling,
but you remain disturbed.

I will go down the steepest valley,
just to pick you in my arm;
i will lie next to you all day,
to have a feel of your charm.

It hurts when you cry,
cos you look broken and in pain:
why don't you smile always,
so i can feel better and sane.

What do you hide behind your looks?
Is it happiness or is it pain?
Why do you still hurt badly?
Is it of any use or any gain?

Let go of the world behind you,
seek for the goodness ahead.
Find love in the space around you
and clear your cloudy head.

There is a world beyond the sky
and beneath the earth;
a place where a man's soul
goes to suffer or rest.

There is a vase which carries
the curse of the world,
a vase called flesh which
men often worship as god.

There is a time when a brave
man becomes a coward;
a time when all fails
and he cries aloud.

There is a moment of truth
which we're all afraid to face;
a moment that reveals our secrets
and takes away our praise.

There is a mirror
in front of everyone,
that lies about the
true identity of any man.

There comes a time
when neither man nor trees will stand;
a time when everything dies
and man becomes sand.

There are kingdoms buried
underneath our feet;
some of which were
conquered by deceit.

There is a reason why
you and I are here;
a reason that should be,
to build and repair.

There is a world beyond the sky
and beneath the earth;
a place where having done well,
you and I should find rest.
