it's gettimg late let's not waste
a dime of time what is the secret
what's the mistery about history
who's story is really who is it about
if we don't know what it is and
how much we have on hand how
do we know we running out of it
do we stand in line to get more
time do we think we're running
out of time how did we spend
the time we were given did we
make good use of it did we spend
it fivolously on foolishness did we
spend it with those who matter
the most or tithe a tenth of it to
get the holy ghost did we waste
it on those who not worth a cent
of it if we believe it's running out
if we knew there would be non
left tomorrow how much more
do we borrow do we know why
we need it if we get more how will
we invest it this time if we know it's
all an illusion do we sit and chat
with Ms Minutes about father time
and all his minions covet a rich man
and his billions when it's more
valuable than anything tangible
we can't hold it in our hands we
can't hold it like a fan flex it on
the gram we can't use it for clout
we can't save it to keep it from
running out we can't fold it and
put it in our pocket but make no
mistake about time it can be taken
as far as we know what we believe
don't exist what if it's a prism
were in like a prison we're in
like the person we're in a vessel
we're in until the pitchure fall
out the frame blow out the candle
flame when our time is near the
end when it's all spent we're
down to the last cent we see the
end we keep on asking for more
of it we need more time to live
we got more in us to to give to
this life we're in we want to see
seed we scattered to set somthing
in motion we want to see it growing
we beg for more time on this planet
to enjoy the garden while we can still
smell the scent of beautiful flowers
and sweet cinnamon a second a minute
more hours more months more
years to shed more tears face more
fear hear more rumors of war cover
up scars not even knowing what we
been fighting for give me more of
all I ever had and all I ever known
"do we believe we're entitled to live"

Pockets Of Change (02162025)will we see shine tomorrow will sun appear how long will it rain when will the clouds disappear will we ever see sky again imagining a time before life got pushed inside told to stay behind the door don't come out no more to see what it's all about got a glimpse of the moon didn't have to see the whole glow to know it's full the lunar phase is clear it's a waste of time to wait for a certain kinda energy to reappear out of nowhere when its always been here |
The Loop In The Wireit's about you it's about me it's about us it's about we it's about time to stop the beef and the strife why must we fight by the stripes on our back against the ropes the least to be free we get no slack we claim they not like us when we don't like our own we go to war in our home casting stones the builder refused we come too far from when we had pride weak inside from blood we lost and continue to lose we blame them but how come when it's you when it's me when it's us when it's we in God we trust God speed is a must to save you to save me to save us to save we from self induced poisoning |
