Excuse me,
But I see it as clear
As the oldest tears
That appear hopelessly confused
With pain and fear
Listen,
You don't have to explain to me
This game that seems to be played
By every lame you meet
I'm just asking you to ask yourself
Are you really in on this hand
Dealt by illusion of a beautiful life
That you must demand
A life that strives to be honest
But eventually it institutes
Inconsequential problems
Problems that push your mind
Over the edge of sanity
Landing face flat
On scraps of excuses
That usually crack the backbones of families
Listen,
Don't ever let your choices sleep
With the anxious forces creeping
Thru your dreams like forgotten memories
Of a life you just cant keep
But instead,
Let every decision you make
Rise between the serenity of deep breaths
That fly thru the time
You've put aside with your steep mess
Patience could be the move that cheats death
Yes,
Patience could be the blow that beats death
Baby, only if you knew
Of the works of subtle virtues
That burst with beauty within you
Never again will a hand ever hurt you
Or the words used to offend you
Become the whip that's been cracked by ignorance
To keep your mind
Trapped in servitude
With every intension
To tighten the tension
That will eventually murder you
You heard me
I SAID IT
MURDER YOU
Never again
Should you fold your hand
Out of confussion and pressure
Just yank time from the hand of eternity
And claim what is righteously yours
Not theirs,
His,
Hers,
Or mine
But yours, your time
The time that's expected
To determine who is worthy
If yourr mind and affection
They will try with deception
To shatter your heart
Into abstract pieces
Of disdainful tears
The purpose may seem blurry
But the pain is clear
No one ever notices those
That have worry for days, even years
Years soaked in months of sad weeks
Where helpless mothers have weeped
For a child that's been blinded
By a false perception of love
They fell deep, deep, deep, inside of
Only if they would've known
That a home built to last generation
Will not stand on its own cracked foundation
Its just not going to happen
So honestly, tell me
What reason is their to rush
(like a blood in blushed cheecks),
Thru every season of lust
Just cause you felt crushed
By the pressure of
Beauty, understanding and trust
Look,
I know you're wise enough
To realized that freedom
Is measured by limits
Surrounding its core
That time hides nothing
But opportunities you should be striving for
And the only limits restricing its existence
For capturing endless possiblities
Are the limits we've implemented ourselves
Without our issues
Time has no limit
So, why would you deprive absolute freedom
From something so innocent
Its logical and basic
Time is free for the taken
So, take it
Cradle it within your soul
And protect it like an infant
Exposed to the cold
Hold your thoughts over its eyes
Until it finds enough strength
To rise with the sun
Guiding you through every truffle of life
Then,
With a smile on your face
Watch it fade into the night
And remind yourself
That the wager you placed on the table
Is nothing less than priceless
Every element stretching
From your gracious love to your dignity
Is essential in the survival
Of your precious identity
So listen carefully,
If you must throw everything on the table
At least take some critical advice
Enslave your heart
Humble your nerves
Live patiently in the moment
And
Play Your Cardz Right!!!!
