A new kind of truth!
Smokey white mountains,
crisp clear azure streams.
Down from the hills
they flow just like a dream.
Standing so still
upon a precipice!
Looking out over
the wooded countryside.
Nobody knows
just what tommorrow brings.
If you are wise,
you'll contemplate deeply.
Give all your heart,
to see what the future brings.
When you were young
you sang to a different tune.
Societies pain and anguish,
you saw so clearly,
The sorrow of life,
it made no sense to you!
Garnering hope,
was all that could be done.
You're freedom and joy
was what was at stake!
The lies that were spoken
left you a little undone!
Your mind would explode
exponentially!
All of your life you looked
for a different way.
You vowed with anger
to avenge on some rainy day!
If you could release the
tension inside of you!
You'd never regret,
whatever might happen next.
Given the prospect
of losing everything,
you just put it off,
just like a bad dream.
There is no closure
to this life wer'e bound to.
Nevertheless you do
what you've got to do.
