Depth to the depth
When shallow I’m hollow
A breath in and out
Time moves and I follow
Then in the West
We call out Apollo
His best must be left
In grooves that we follow
*
Daybreak has all of my plans
At night dreams start all over again
Lighting the way everyday
A test to the test
In fire I wallow
*
A splash of wisdom
A dash of defiance
I aim to be close to
Established compliance
I can’t complain
but we do need change
To challenge the system
And set a new stage
*
So today, I buck history
of mine and the world’s
Try to redesign meaning
Of words we’ve unfurled
Bright ideas, dark days
My optimism is pure
Work and believing
*
Confess to the rest
When shallow we’re hollow
A breath in and out
Success proves how to follow
Guessed to be best
The world shouts a loud call out
The rest must be blessed
In grooves that we follow
*
Daybreak has all of my plans
At night dreams start all over again
At the height of day
I work and pray
Success at the test
In fire I wallow
*
Smoke is rising
Flames are twisting
I waver like a leaf in the heated breeze
No surprise
I’m resisting
To get past pain and find progress beneath
*
Our future is uncertain
and alternates positions
Staying strong in only one:
The stem of cool and calm visions
