Have these thoughts in my head
These days of dread
Time keeps on ticking
Wishin’ work was finished but instead
Come up somewhat slow
Maintain my tempo
Not get drowned out by my fears
When they start to roll
Wait and debate?
Race to keep the pace?
Ignore the door that’s knocked on
By the hands of fate?
Dreams come up like the burning sun
Realized will I feel
I’ve won
Chorus: Don’t stop…animate.
There’s no need to eliminate
Open your mind
Ask what’s the buzz
Drag you out of the mud
Is what it does
Don’t you hesitate
Gotta give a little time
To let it laminate
Cuz you design each time you rise
Create this world with your own eyes
Livin feels so easy
Drops you to your knees
Leaves you wonderin’ how you knew it
Blew it like the breeze
Work hard then hardly caring
Lost the inkling then your staring
Praying for some kind of hope
At a blank page staring
These times were the fruit of the vine
Recline into the essence
Let expression find
Itz the way onto your palette
Color your mind
Make the time each day
To freak and shine
Chorus
Through the set up rules
To the truth of youth
Mornin noon and night
Do what you do
Don’t embrace mistakes as faults made
But the means that got your
Current state of grace
Memories
In their place
Know there’s a greater history
At stake
Movin with the muse
A chance you take
Refind your mind
To penetrate
Chorus
Splatter matter
With a lyrical flow
To the dawn
The movement keeps us
Growing strong
And on our lips
Whispers of light and
Feelin right
To free your love is
Half the fight
A little spunk
To put the bounce to the ball
Trip on happy accidents
A break to the fall
Rollin’ with the heart
No need to define
The course of expression
Our lives divine
Chorus
