stance
this hungerthis need
this life
this drive
this mind
its sublime
i rewind
and reverse
this time
which is mine
that i live
and i give
hold this line
but i strive
to forgive
for that hurt
for that pain
but ill gain
from new names
new games
new dreams
its all that it seems
what this life means to me
is to achieve
and succeed
but i believe
it is my choice
to survive
to kick in this drive
to motivate whats inside
to move in your direction
to change the world's perception
to create my own world
to release myself from this self inflicted hold
this wound
it bleeds
blood runs can you see?
visible images of pain
spiritual images of gain
mean nothing
cant you see?
to realise
to open our eyes
to see that we are just shadows of former lives
is it wise?
to open ones eyes
when that thing called a mind behind those eyes
cannot comprehend this surprise
because you cannot see me
as a free being
as someone not made from your mold
time for me to stop talking and show it.
