No matter what

We can be alright

For one minute of the day

And always a second or maybe a few 

If we have time to think

About something new

That we want to do

As we are tested every day

But somehow make it through okay

Until the time that we can concentrate

And appreciate the day

In some way

**

No matter what

We can be okay

For one minute of the day

Or maybe an hour or maybe a few

If we have time to think 

And time to do

What we want to do

As we make progress each day

By somehow making it through okay

Until the time that we can become great

And celebrate the day

In every way

**

No matter what

The summer’s hot

The winter can be cold and grey

The spring is as wet

as the Fall gets

Some sunshine

Helps us make it through each day

The one sure thing that every day brings

Is time to make it through

And search for a way

to stay okay

Each and every day

Let’s make it all the way

***

Getting close to the fire

Sparks are flying higher and higher

Danger holds off our desire

We want the heat

We want the light

We want something just to inspire

**

It may seem that time flies by so fast

Other times it just seems to crawl

Sometimes time flows just as expected

Sometimes we hit the wall

**

Climbing up to the fire

Spirit is rising higher and higher

Dark clouds holds off our desire

We want the heat

We want the light

We want something just to inspire

**

We don’t want situations to be dire

We don’t want a cheater or a liar

We want a true love to admire

We want intensity

On the wire

To get closer to the fire

**

It may seem that time flies by so fast

Other times it just seems to stall

Sometimes time flows just as expected

We are always

in it

for the long haul

***

Rummaging through my grey cells

For something to save the world

Or at least my part of it

With best of intentions

I have to be absolutely sure

To get my fill

Think out loud about your cure

In my corner of the world

**

Barreling through my cognitions 

Towards something to save my world

Or someone to connect to

With less apprehension 

I must be one hundred percent sure

To be super chill

We work together for the cure

With our connection to the world 

**

Thinking about the situation 

Some will look right past

The more involved

The more attention

The more we seem to last

Rushing past

we may have to escape

Standing strong

If we are really great

We do something

just to help the world

Think of

ways to demonstrate

*

Cause a smile

Ease the pain

Organize the situation

For more health

in the future and today

*

In the future and today

**

Crashing through my cortex

With something to save the world

Or at least my part of it

With best of intentions

I have to be absolutely sure

We have to get our fill

And think out loud about a cure

In our space and time and our world

***

The world isn’t fair

Do we really care?

Sometimes

We may just

turn a blind eye to it

We all must contribute

But “Holy Shoot!”

Some people will surely die from it

**

Overloaded

Don’t sugar-coat it

Many are forced

to work right down to the bone

It is like: the master throws it

And then just for show

Life can hit like rock

or a heavy stone

**

The world isn’t fair

Don’t just stop and stare

Never believe

All the wild lies about it

We all should refute

The value of loot 

Some people

Think too highly of it

**

Overloaded

We should have voted

Many are forced to suffer

Strain, moan and groan

We may admit that we know it

But never own it

And still bow down to

the corrupted throne

**

Overloaded

The path eroded

A low life or the big boss

Starved or bloated

We should

balance with equal loads

Never be worn out

Don’t let virtue corrode

Or lives implode

**

The world isn’t fair

Not fully aware?

It can depend on

the fine lines that we draw

Justice is duty

Overall truly

Some people just take more pride in it

It should be a fine time

Not a fatal flaw

***

Have I said too much

And fallen into the wrong hands?

Can I make a difference anywhere I land?

Am I in a void?

Making noise

Like a band that won’t disappear

Even when

the crowd heckles and jeers

I still have my poise

And a lack of fear

Should I be on my way

And exit stage left?

**

Could I find another production

Where they keep the time best

Saving the bass and treble cleft 

For what happens next?

*

I must see them shining

And avoid any trouble

Across my media today

Can we combine

And double down

Go to town

Till I am found

And change up operations

With another new sound?

**

Can I share a new groove

And make some cool moves

Get away from the anger

And the fear of bad news?

*

Can I make a difference 

With words that I say?

Instead of wallowing

in my own echo chamber

An eternal stranger

Let’s get past the danger

And let the world choose

When good words stay

While we work and play

Free speech today

That helps folks

heal and soothe

Let there be no other way

***

I am faster than light

I am brighter than the stars

I am shooting like fireworks

And racing like cars

*

I have some muscle under the hood

I am never rushing

because that’s not good

*

I just keep running

like I should

*

Rev my engine

Light my fuse

Hell or heaven

You can choose

**

I am larger than life

I am heightened like a plane

I am flying like storm clouds

And pounding like rain

*

I have found more strength under the sky

I am never fading

My eyes open wide

*

I just show up

Weather my guide

*

Charge my station

Flip my switch

Share elation

Grant my wish

**

Connect with me

Join our forces

Feel the energy

As it courses

Through our channels

And through our veins

Into our causes

Within our brains

*

Connect with me

To feel better

All our energy

Comes together

In our goals

For more gain

In our souls

Ease the pain

**

I am stronger than steel

I am more bent than the road

I am flat out like race day

And breaking the code

*

I have pure energy and power

I am never drained

I will have my hour

*

I stand tall

I am a tower

*

Rising higher

Scrape the skies

Blazing fire

Behind these eyes

**

Connect with me

Join our forces

Feel the energy

As it courses

Through our channels

And through our veins

Into our causes

Within our brains

*

Connect with me

To feel better

All our energy

Comes together

In our goals

For more gain

In our souls

Unrestrained

***

Mind-numbing activities

Heart-throbbing interests

Somehow they combine and

Some times one

cancels out the other

*

Let it be

And we feel much better

Dull or intense

We really work it 

It keeps us together

Day to day

Work and play

Concentrate

Take it as it comes

As we go with the flow

*

Show what you know

Fast or slow

And feel

passion enhancing time

Making it prime

Find

Patience improving life

Giving it style

Being more than alive

Transcendence arrives

As we go with the flow

And show what we know

Fast or slow

And feel

Clashes fading away

Some time today

Find

Courage well underway

It won’t ever stray

In the breath that we take

Being kind and brave

As we go with the flow

And show what we know

Fast or slow

**

Mind-expanding activities

Heart-pounding interests

Somehow they combine and 

Some times one

Amplifies the other

**

It’s the way it should be

Feel better forever

Calm not too tense

We always work it

It keeps us together

Day to day

Work and play

Celebrate

Small victories Big wins

As we go with the flow

*

Show what you know

Fast or slow

And feel

passion enhancing time

Making it prime

Find

Patience improving life

Giving it style

Being more than alive

Transcendence arrives

As we go with the flow

And show what we know

Fast or slow

And feel

Clashes fading away

Some time today

Find

Courage well underway

It won’t ever stray

In the breath that we take

Be kind and be brave

Time always flows

***

I am thinking of a better world

One where everyone

Helps each other

And where peace and love

do not get hurled

Into hell when losers

Can’t be bothered

To follow science and art

that is curled

Like sleeping creatures

Charging a warm world

We can’t give up on humanity

**

One thousand years from now

Is it going to be

a barren wasteland?

Fires burning

No replacement 

The world keeps turning

But we’re faceless

Suffering numbers

Graceless

Tasteless

Remnants of a world we loved

**

I am thinking of a better life

One where we do our best

to help each other

And where peace and love

just seem more wise

No more hell when losers

Get too hot and

Can’t follow science and art

that guides

The waking creatures

Giving back to life

We won’t give up on humanity

**

One hundred years from now

Is it going to be

a barren wasteland?

Oceans flooding

No replacement

The world keeps turning

Few will face this

Dwindling numbers

Places

Makeshift

Remnants of a world we loved

**

Will we throw it all away

Because we don’t want to pay?

For life that costs us

To save someone else’s day

While all of our resources

In surplus

Are rotting fast, tucked away

We may have to

throw it all away

Just so that they can have their say

That they are superior

Saving help till it’s way too late

**

Ten years from now

Is it going to be

a barren wasteland?

Factories fallen

No replacements

The world keeps turning

We must face this

We still have numbers

Bases

Spaces

Chances for a world we love

**

I am thinking of a better Earth

One where everyone

Helps each other

And where peace and love

will have more worth

Far less hell where losers

Feel so smothered

Instead follow science and art

that is pure

Like every creature

Has a chance on Earth

We can’t give up on humanity

**

What about tomorrow

How can we escape

the barren wasteland?

Our life that’s thriving

No replacement 

The world keeps turning

Now we face this

Build up the numbers

Aces

Cases

Co-operation

for a world we love

***

One stream of reality

Occupies our brain

We add many more

But they become one again

*

One channel

we are locked in on

We can expand or contract

There is only one

River of consciousness 

That connects

And makes contact

**

Running up against the sides

And over the waterfall

Charging down

through the narrows

Carrying everything

Small or tall

Through fast racing rapids

From a slow cold trickle

to a fast-moving front crawl

We make a lasting impression

A forever echoing call

**

One stream of reality

Amplifies the gain

We add so much more

But it become one again

*

One pathway

we are locked in on

We can

move past or impact

There is only one

Passage of consciousness 

We react

And stay on track

**

Rising up against the edges

And through the stretching hall

Winding

through the corridor

Driving everything

We never stall

Through deep intense courses 

With wild storming currents

nearly to a dead-stopped halt 

We join a lasting production

A forever dance

that enthrals

**

One stream of reality

Justifies the plane

Infinitely more

Always becomes one again

*

One story

we are locked in on

We are

Scattered or neatly stacked

There is only one

Page for all consciousness 

Life hack

In a book of fact

We read it front to back

**

Ramping up against the banks

A thousand-mile, line of fault

Blasting

through mental valleys 

Flowing relentlessly 

Over rocks we vault

Find day past dark forests  

A frenzy of life

at a super-natural ball

Accept our lasting induction

Or forever deny

*

If you have the gall

***

I have been thinking about

What will happen next

The future of the universe

And Everything that connects

*

Pushing for more time to think

A reasonable demand

Include only healing thought now

Help each other understand

**

Now I am thinking about

what I should do next

If I have time for it this week

I’ll finish a few projects 

*

I also have to think about

how I will get by

And make it through in

more ways today

Start by opening my mind

**

Pushing for more time each day

A reasonable demand

If we find better ways to think

We can handle any plan 

*

Sometimes I must think about

Things that are complex

If we have time to understand 

A simple thought

is what protects 

**

Now I am just thinking of

how I will get by

I have to make it through today 

I have every reason why

*

Push push push 

For the better day

Pull in all our thoughts

*

Push push push

For the better way

Pull out our best thoughts

**

Now I am thinking about

What i should say next

What is the best

way to reach you

How about I send a text?

*

Let’s get up to date

And clear the slate

Of spite and hate

Make them dissipate 

*

One thing to work for

Is a better world

**

Push push push

For the best way

Pull in all our thoughts

*

Pushing to find better times

A reasonable demand

Let’s talk about life

until we both agree on

The best way to understand
