The fights that get down
The noises loud in town
The fear of losing eachother
Is all that makes us stick together

My love, my life depends on God
And the love of God is manifested in you
Your beauty is like polished gold
And when i was thirsty i rested in you

Your kiss takes away my fears
As your mellow words caress my ears
My only destination is the altar
Walking down the aisle is on my rota

I look forward to more joy and happiness
As our journey has taught us to hang on
Even though we fight i will never care less
You are my source of laughter, my backbone

There had been and in days we were in distress
On a highway zigzagging steeply down into darkness
Letting truth roll off your back like water
Stones that make a river strong were put in order

Like waters we were formless and shapeless
Our presence's absence in the eyes of princes
From the source of a fountain we were mixed with mud
From a foetus in a womb to the world a lad

Swayed back & forth from side to side
Like winds with no direction forests slowed us down
Excitement, a friend of death, brought forth a tide
Whenever we rose up gravity pulled us down

But like a hen hatches eggs, like a rose sprouts petals
Like a seed germinates, or in the sand finding glittering diamonds
The Most High then pulls us out of the furnace
And like smelted and refined gold, we ought to dwell in His embrace

Like you do with fish in the waters from an angle
From the multitudes where i can be hardly identifiable
Here i stand tall like California Redwoods
To the horizons carry me with you

From the sounds and noise of the city
My eyes move a hundred thousand times daily
Mind filled with fear of the unknown and overwhelm me
The contaminated air and taste of the town fail me

Soar with me to the four corners of the earth
Where i can look at one thing at a time with slow breath
Where also held back are the four winds
I wanna listen to the sound of the oceans deep

Like the sunset, take me down
But without leaving any trail in the clouds
Then erase my path like a whirlwind sweeps the ground
But promise to bring me back safe and sound

The fire burning in my heart
No water can quench or extinquish it
Am getting torn apart
The anger in me who can release it

The fear of losing whats mine
The fear she may be taken
Feeling like a coward this time
Hating on a breathren

Nerves have my hands shaking
Wanting to awaken the menace in me
My mouth wanting some shouting
But i hold back my words within me

Jealousy is burning in me like fire
But there is no fear in love and i won't retire
I will deal with this feeling until it goes away
But for now not a word to her will i say

Some seem strong, some sing same song
But we are all a land under one throne
Others have numbers, others utter thunders
But after all the wanders there are surrenders

We engage in games and same seems life's aims
Inequality makes one a casualty but what awaits us is reality
Some win some almost, some weep some toast
But we are all defeated by death a gasp for breath despite good health

Surely we fight, we hurt and we cause pain
But the color of blood comes out the same
Fury we ignite, we instigate & bring forth of terror a reign
But Life, Love and a People ought to continue again

Standing by the roadside wondering what next
Tapping into the devine mind of one to my left

To the far left stands a mountain
Hopeful we are, like thirsty men approaching a fountain
Like a Rolls Royce blacker than coal
Draws close, no noise, runner but slow

Above the mountain top, from the sky
Says Him who does not lie

"From where the sun sets, comes the son of unrighteousness
Globally, a man of influence
Multitudes believe, someone everyone fears"

Destination vineyard, I sneaked out by the back exit instead
From a place that compensates for all the sweat
Started the engine and the wheels spun
Like a king rushes to the midwife's home on news of a son

A day to remember, a sabbath to recall
Wind blew on my face and it was fresh
With a kiss of hope

Didn't see it coming like a lightning's flash
But enjoyed every moment like staring at a shooting star
If likened to rain, then I would need Noah's Ark
If to sunshine, then a rainbow that never fades fast

Bedtime stories like a granny shares before night
Faces were only seen by the moonlight
Gazing at the Orion's Belt in heaven
No one would leave until eleven

Preceded by months of planting and weeding
Like a farmer gathers yields at harvest time after spring
The aftermath of a long sail to the center of the sea
In anticipation, a fisherman's excitment at net fishing
