If I were any more contained

I’d be a tin of coffee

Sealed so fresh

We can’t easily get it open

*

My hands are slippery

because I’ve been washing dishes

I can’t get the lid off

Do you think that you can help me?

*

Pop sizzle

A day saturated with flavour

A breath sets me free

Together alone

We are known

**

If I were any more restrained

I’d be strapped in a gurney

In a straight jacket

We can’t easily get open

*

My hands work quickly

Confidence has

been granting wishes they can’t get rid of

Do they think that they can help me?

*

Snap slither

Captors masquerade as saviours

A breath sets me free

*

Forever alone

Never known

*

My mind

more free than my body

**

Love is free in my words

But too rarely heard

Because many choose

To ignore a story

that doesn’t make money

*

They think they are cunning

They implore they know the best way

For the world to be running

despite leaving

Half the world

Dirty, starving

or bloody

*

If I were any more sane

I’d be just as lucky

Brain concealed in flesh

We can’t easily get it open

*

My hands are tightly gripping

because I’m hearing words so vicious

I can’t turn the grid off

Do you think that you can help me?

*

Boom drizzle

They rate a stormy sky’s behaviour

A breath sets me free

*

No freedom alone

Share what’s known

Our minds should help free

Everybody

***

I wonder what they think of me

I can only be who I am

Sometimes I think

it’s not meant to be

And we all have

Different plans

But it’s just our identity

We all try to have a brand

In one way

it’s our identity 

That can get out of hand

*

Protect your health

Protect your family

Protect all you can

But definitely 

Protect your identity

So Humans understand

And so you don’t get scammed

**

I wonder what they think of me

You are my biggest fan

Sometimes I think

it’s not meant to be

And you might have

Other plans

But it’s more than our identity

You know it’s all been planned

In many ways

Our identities

Are known across this land

*

Protect your health

But share your wealth

Help everyone you can

And if it helps you be 

Protect your identity

So your friends can understand

And so you don’t get banned

*

Have an action plan

Reach out your hand

Help the world

Help yourself

Help us understand 

**

I wonder what they think of me

As I take another stand

Sometimes I think

it’s not meant to be

But we all have

A master plan

It makes up most of our identity

We all hope it works out grand

In any way

Our identity 

Is something to understand 

*

Protect your health

Protect humanity

Protect as best you can

But definitely

Protect your identity

So the world will understand

And so everything works out

Much more like you have planned

*

Have a master plan

Reach out a helping hand

Help the world

Help yourself

Help us take a stand

***

One thousand million colours

Melt into the world

The brightest, wildest

paint by numbers

Like a spinning top is swirled

*

The hottest paint jobs for cars

Looking like a billion bucks

We dream under brilliant glowing stars

Arriving in flashy pick-up trucks

**

Wake up

We are going to the sky now

Look up

And open up your eyes now

We are going to the light

Of the sun or night

With everything in sight

Try to view it alright now

*

Whatever I can do

To help us make it through

I offer every effort

I can summon for the fight

I really want to aee

Everything 

Everyone

Radiant with light

**

One thousand million rainbows

Would not freak me out

The kindest, boldest

Shades for idols

Beauty with no doubt

*

Intense acceptance of a friend

Caring like eight billion people

A tapestry resilient and intense

We’re still trying to thread the needle

**

Wake up

We all have to try somehow

Look up

And see clearly

with your eyes just now

We are going to the light

Of the sun or night

With everything in sight

Find more love

Create it right now

*

Whatever you can do

To help us make it through

Can you offer enough effort

And lead us to win the fight?

We really want to see

Everything 

Everyone

Staying in the light

**

Dark coffee that blends

Mornings with friends

Space between stars

In limousine cars

We all shine on the inside

Like berry jam in jars

*

The taste of the flavours

The visions we savour

Bring it altogether

and share your view

**

Wake up

We can learn to be alright now

Look up

See more truth

with your clear eyes now

We are going to the light

Of the sun or night

With everything in sight

Make more peace

For us all

Right now

***

I see the mountains standing

Before my eyes, Raw

I am full of awe

From what I saw

The time the world takes is amazing

yeah

There seems to be no flaw

*

Wild weather and earthquakes shake me now

I’m full of nerves that it will worsen

Challenges we face

Can leave good days

We save the most time

When no one’s left hurting

**

I hear the angels singing in my ear

I am not full of fear

When they are near

but they kind of think I’m crazy

yeah, It’s just how it appears

*

Fire and brimstone can’t shake me now

I’m over the nerves because I am certain

Everything we raise

Creates good days

Don’t forsake our time 

Then no one’s left hurting

**

Nervous laughter in the rafters

Energy in the space

We walk through walls

The doors channel footfalls

A heavenly roof covers all of the place

*

On the floor there is no more

Nightmares or angry mobs

Resting dreams are not what they seem

In dialogues and dirty jobs

*^

I know the forests I wander in my mind

I am not left behind

Because they are kind

The river that winds is lazy

yeah 

It’s a mood we hope to find

*

Lightening and thunder

can’t shake me now

I’m built of nerves

just like any person

Love that we chase

Leads to good days

when we take our time

So no one’s left hurting

***

As usual

Constant wicked chaos

With a few fleeting moments

to connect to peace and calm

*

Everyday we get hit

With another challenge or a crisis

Today I’m taking a stand

Because that’s what I do

Every day

*

I’m the only one standing

To make my views known

People are passive aggressive

when attacking

They assume it’s okay

**

Less often

Perfect super pay-offs

With sweet and soothing moments

to connect to peace and calm

*

Then so soon we get hit

With another set back we get cut off

Today I’m taking a stand

For our shared fragile groove

Trying to clear the way

*

Do I see you there standing

To make these views known?

People our casually abrasive

when attacking

They don’t care if it’s okay

**

Many people choose

to put others down

Rather than build us up

If we had more empathy around

Life wouldn’t be so tough

*

Sometimes we can’t even believe

The things that others need

Maybe we can’t understand

at all

We may look only for ourselves

With no effort to reach out or call

If we trample through life blindly

With assumptions above all

We can make mistakes

in the steps we take

And that’s how we can fall

**

Of course

We all have secret soft spots

With valued vital moments

to protect our peace and calm

*

Sometimes our target gets hit

With another danger or a safe shot

Today I’m taking a stand

To share fair plans

With you for every day

*

I hope we can keep standing

To make our views well-known

*

While Media can be massively invasive

if attacking

Kind truth helps it grow ok

***

Wake up to another

Surface dream

This is their land

It’s way out of hand

Unable to take a stand

Many evil-doers are long gone

but we perpetuate it

Lack of love

More hate hits

You’re a new person designed

Human aligned

maybe a guy or lady

Why can’t you agree that

the past you hold

is the one that’s invading?

*

Summer soon

but it already feels like it

Change my tune

So it’s something that you like

It seems we come up with

The future ever-faster

We should look closer to

Avoid more disasters

Dismantle a blast from the past

Find

Healing words and actions faster

Sometimes we might F* up

We are humans ever after

Fix what is wrong

**

We stand out and that’s great

Achieve for ourselves

With no hate

It should not matter that we

Are all

Different

When our only sins

Are harmless things

Like butterfly wings

Flashing beauty

Peace is our duty

The vision so fleeting

We soon wonder

where it has gone

*^

We chase a fly ball

We can’t let it fall

Indifferent

When the game begins

An anthem they sing

Which so often brings

Fans rooting

No refuting

Our mission, no cheating

If it’s a fair game

We all have won

**

Wake up to another

Surface dream

This is their land

It’s way out of hand

Unwilling to take a stand

Too many evil-doers just look on

Greed perpetuates it

Blurs all our love

More hate sits

You are your own Person defined

Some humans stay blind

We are more than a guy or a lady

Let’s be anyone unjaded

**

Why can’t we agree that

the future we shape

is clearly worth kind concentration?

Think about what we do

It’s already real

Let it change our tune

So it’s something

that we all like

It seems we come up with

The present

Day way too fast here

We should look closer to

Avert more disasters

Assemble a task

for what’s next

With more

Healing words

to actions faster

***

You say you can

Take it or leave it

But I just can’t believe it

I am convinced

It’s at the heart of the matter

*

If it’s not up your alley

I know I can still rally

And I will work hard

to climb up the ladder

*

But what about this?

You calling it bliss

And then saying

“it just doesn’t add up”

*

I couldn’t be gladder

To get back at it

Please let me know what I can add to the platter

+

All the resources

Luxury and treats

This day should support us

As we work every week

*

Give us a break when we deserve

Anything less is absurd

They pile more work on

But don’t pay us fairly

What the Hell goes on?

We make it, just barely

The front line needs help

More funding

And organisation necessary

**

They say we can 

Make it or break it

We need help to achieve it

I am convinced

There can be nothing better

*

Can you hear voices calling?

We can keep them from falling

Is it truly smart

Or is it just idle chatter?

*

But what about this?

All the words that are missed

And then leaving others’ lives to be shattered 

*

Watch the selfish scatter

I have just had it

Please let me know

why your wallets should keep getting fatter?

*

All the resources

Surplus money you cheat

Should support all of us

All life and each person we meet

*

What is your take?

What do you observe?

How can you leave us unsure?

*

The pleasantries are sure gone

They don’t treat us fairly

What the Hell goes on?

We fake it, just barely

The people need help

More leading with consideration 

Is necessary

*

More taking care of ourselves and our world

Is necessary 

***

Nothing to say

So far away

My dream is only half-full

*

I could reach for the stars

Feel like I’m on Mars

Heavenly bodies

Look down from their castle

*

Here comes the moon

in the afternoon

When my better half shines

There’s no hassle

*

Why wait for the night

To show precious light?

The rest of the dream is

already tangible

**

Something to say?

Fire away

My tank is only half-full

*

We won’t break down in cars

Or end up with scars

Protecting our bodies

By making

a fast call

*

Here comes the flag soon

Our motor has zoom

Our words don’t cross the line

Until we get past all

*

When our fuel ignites

We speed out of sight

The rest of the dream

is purely mechanical

**

I am quick to jump in

Watch my world spin

I am completely awake

But my dreams are not fake

They stay real

like the sun and moon

When the sky changes

My mind rearranges

And I come up with

a brand new tune

**

Anything I say?

To make our day

My glass is at least half-full

*

I used to smoke cigars

Every night go to bars

Polluting my body

Staying out past last call

*

Here comes a full moon

With no silver spoon

Still stay cleaner and kind

Though it seems so mental

*

If the sound doesn’t seem tight

For reasons I fight

The rest of the dream

Is totally casual

**

I am ready to begin

Watch my world spin 

I surely have a vision

My dreams have precision

They last for me

like the sun and moon

When the sky changes

My mind goes through stages

And we’ll be sharing

the good life real soon

**

Whatever I say?

Let’s get underway

The future is only half-full

***

Splashing lights

Visions appear in the vast sky

Flashing like apparitions

Trying to catch our eye

Our mirror surprises

Constantly changing in the sea

No matter where we look

it’s always you and me

We build ourselves up to the blue skies

While all our thoughts are crashing

The past falls

The present trembles

The future waits

looking smashing

**

Clashing insights

Conflicts obscure our fair sky

We grasp for wild predictions

Hoping to ease our mind

Our fear can hide like

Pressure at the depths of the sea

No matter where we search

it’s down with you and me

We build ourselves up like storm clouds

Subconscious waves now crashing

The past thirsts

The present quenches

The future waits for the last drop splashing

**

When I feel the wind quickly rushing

The sky inspires me

I let my spirit fly higher

All through the day

and at night when I dream

The sea invites me all the way

Then I dive deep down to the depths where I stay

*

When I feel the earth in fact pushing

What’s best inspires me

I help my spirit climb higher

In every way

I build up my dream

Faith defines my world every day

As I rise rapid reaching for the surface that’s safe

*

Now To make a difference

Shine the light and

Refresh the way

Build tomorrow up to the sky

And stayed inspired

Build ourselves up

Especially for today

**

Passion’s heights

Our mission

Stays strong in the fast sky

We cast for smart decisions

Aim to connect to what is right

But more tears still find us

Rising higher

Filling up the sea

No matter where we stand

it’s up to you and me

We build ourselves up like history

Eternal waves are crashing

The past calls

The present catches

The future waits as the storm is passing

***

I’ve got a new project

I don’t ever stop working

If I am relaxing I’m still thinking

Of ways to make things better

*

Do you know what I mean?

I’m not feeling bad pressure

I prefer to consciously strive

To get everything together

Don’t be surprised

If I get a chance to speak my mind

I do because I can

That’s the plan for ever

**

I’ve got a new project

I don’t ever stop trying

If I am resting I’m still thinking

Of ways life can be better

*

Do you know what I mean?

Now I’m feeling censored

I prefer to consciously thrive

When I have everything together

Don’t be surprised

If I get a chance to speak my mind

I will because I can

That’s the plan for ever

**

Blues turn to sunny blues

and rock like metal

Grey turns to an orange haze

As the sun begins to settle

All we want is a good life

We just have to share life

Here it is found

With a courageous sound

Speak up with care

So troubles disappear 

All is well that ends well

**

I’ve got a new project

I don’t ever stop smiling

If I am rejoicing I’m still thinking

Of ways I can do better

*

Do you know what I mean?

I’m feeling with good measure

I prefer to consciously arrive

With everyone together

Don’t be surprised

If I get a chance to speak my mind

I express because I can

That’s the plan forever

**

Blues turn to sunny blues

and rock like metal

Black gets us back on track

As the dusts begins to settle

All we want is a good life

We just have to share life

Here it comes around

With an outrageous sound

Speak up with flare

Always be prepared

All is well that ends well
