If you can listen to me

You just might hear

What it means to me

*

To be who I want to be

*

I’m not putting on a show

It’s the only way I know

I may just go with the flow

But when things get heavy

The impact starts to grow

**

When I feel light

My dreams will ride

Create a new current

For a strong and fast mind

On the real slow ground

Send the temperature

Soaring up to high

from so way low down

Patience helps

keep emotions in control

Calm Or

Energetic

With the Earth we roll

Try to find balance

for every soul

**

If you share a vision with me

You just might see

My reality

*

And what I want it to be

*

Flowing endlessly

Only what is meant to be

Always

leaning towards more equity

To set everyone free

Compared to

times that are hard to be

Living peacefully

When that’s all we need

***

Too many forgotten yesterdays

We need memories to make tomorrow

Today is a starting point

To get past trouble and sorrow

We have to learn from the past

Build on every moment

Time isn’t something we borrow

We keep the goals

Dig deep in our souls

Our memories help make tomorrow

**

Every possible future

Grows from what we know today

What we care for and nurture

Shows up when it flows this way

Careful concentration

And kind consideration

Help us build up a better day

It is the very best way

To make it through okay

No matter what they say

What we think

Always comes into play

**

Too many repeated mistakes

We need to keep learning to make tomorrow

Today we balance our life

To get through our days with more flow

We can learn from the past

And then seize the moment

The future is something we don’t know

We make new goals

Feel free in our souls

Our hopes and dreams help make tomorrow

**

Every potential future

Shows in what we know today

What we cradle and treat pure

Grows up when it flows this way

Careful concentration

And kind consideration

Help us design a better day

It is the very best way

To make it through okay

No matter what they say

What we think

Always comes into play

***

I am just wondering

If I don’t pay attention

to the little flaws

will they go away?

Or will they grow and start to show

Overtake the good

And decimate the meaning?

*

I can think my way through this

It’s about perception and reality

It just turned out like this

It is what it is

**

I am just blundering

If I don’t pay attention

to the natural cause

will it be okay?

Like will it flow and start to show?

Overtake the fake

And demonstrate the true meaning?

*

I can think my way through this

It’s about perception and reality

It has always been like this

It is what it is

**

It is what it is

That is the premise

We do our best

Whatever we do

*

Reality twists

It’s nothing we missed

We do our best to just make it through

*

There are so many details

Focus on health

We need more wealth

With a better view

Aim for peace 

It’s always true

We feel what we feel

We do what we do

**

I am just thundering

If I don’t pay attention

to the pathways that cross

will it be today?

The stars we know

will start to show?

Overtake cruel fate

And differentiate new meanings?

*

I can think my way through this

It’s about perception and reality

It has finally come to this

It is what it is

**

Aim for peace

It will stay true

We feel what we feel

We do what we do

***

Some people like me

Some people don’t 

Some people understand

Some people won’t

*

I am right about some things

I may be wrong about others

I don’t know all the answers yet

But from some perspectives 

it’s all the same

**

I think I said the right thing

Or I had it all wrong

We would get much further ahead

if we all got along

*

Some people will like you

Some people just won’t 

Some people lump us in one pile

Some people don’t

**

I think I did the right thing

There are many ways to go wrong

I can get much further ahead

if I just write a song

*

Words to solve the future

Days left to design

We get along better together

With a considerate mind

***

No one really cares

There is writing on the wall

If we can’t see it anymore

It won’t make a difference at all

*

Then they slow down

stop and stare

But don’t say a single word

When the thoughts stay

Posted clear to them

They finally make their voices heard

*

We are different

It is true

It starts with what we do

If we reach the finish

We can help them make it too

**

We don’t get time to share

This makes it easier to fall

How we safely express ourselves

should be entirely our call

*

If they become more aware

And will start to spread the word

Then we can speak

about what we think

So our ideas finally are heard

*

Who will be in charge?

It is you

It starts with what we do

Because we lead our life

We can help them

Get through too

**

We help by being kind

Give everyone their time

We say what we want to say

Hope to be well

through every day

And find more

happiness some way

**

We all should really care

The writing is on the wall 

There are some things we can’t ignore

Make a difference for one and all

***

It is what it is

We shouldn’t be surprised 

Life just has moments

We react when they arrive

We may question or cringe

What a time to be alive

Sometimes it’s not grand

We might say it’s all planned

It is what it is

**

We truly know what we feel

When it’s fine, we are fine

While we read into the signs

We might run out of time

I care

You care

I’m strong

You’re strong

We don’t always compete

It is what it is

It’s abstract or concrete

**

It is what it is

Quite clear it is disguised

Today has something 

While for more progress we strive

We may wonder who wins

Who will stagnate

and who thrives

Sometimes I can’t stand

When it gets out of hand

but it is what it is

**

We finally reach the reveal

And find what we find

If it is too out of line

We just might lose our mind

Fair is fair

And wrong is wrong

There is no in between

It is what it is

Do you know what I mean?

*

Perspective means everything

We may hit or miss

We just carry on

It is what it is

***

Fully fighting for the side

that helps things turn out alright

For me and you

And to keep a fair balance

in sight

*

We all have our own life

We do the best we can

from one point of view

Someone else might be running against us

So what more can we do?

**

I keep doing my own thing

For me

And also try to aim for

what is in our best interest

All of us

Each one of us

All of me and you

Somehow it makes a difference

When we do what we do

**

Do you want to fight for the side

that helps things turn out alright?

For me or you

How do we keep more justice

Alive?

*

I fight for my own life

I do the best I can

from my point of view

Someone else might be totally against me

So now what should I do?

**

I live the dream and hope it’s good

For me

I also try to work for

what is in our best interest

All of us

Each one of us

All of me and you

Somehow it makes a difference

When we do what we do
