I may be different
But we are all out there
The ideas I have
Aren’t out of place
I may try to lift them
And that’s not uncommon
Don’t look at me
like I’m from outer space
*
I know I’m different
There’s no doubt there
The ideas I have
Are keeping pace
I may have to shift them
If they get forgotten
Don’t discount me
Like I’m a hopeless case
**
We may be drifting
Put the pedal to the metal
The world is shifting
As the dust settles
We find that fear
is left behind
When greed and hate
Are sent back to the grind
Clearing up
To an open road
And an open time
Fast machines
Blasting off the line
Shivers running
Down our spine
Help us find
Our peace of mind
**
Do I seem different?
I’m feeling out there
The ideas I have
You don’t have to chase
I may try to gift them
Right from the bottom
Don’t look at me
Like I have no taste
*
We are all different
Good to know you’re out there
The ideas we have
Build up home base
We may be different
But together we’ve caught on
You don’t have to tell me
We can all win this race
**
We may be drifting
*Shakes a pan handle
for the metal*
The world is sifting
Will the dust ever settle?
We find that folks
Get left behind
When greed and hate
Culture our mind
Clear it up
To an open path
And an open time
Riches in kind rivers
It’s not just gold that will shine
Silver linings
We design
Help us find
Our peace of mind
