Although right now you may be upset,
You should try your best not to fret.
Instead of being bothered by this obstacle,
You should change your perspective,
So you can create a situation that is optimal.
Think about what you can today,
and do it well.
The process will show you the way.
Focus on the process and not the prize,
Then the world will glow before your eyes.
The essence of success,
Is something that is personal.
Appreciate what you have,
And know that you are blessed.
Having more is not always the answer,
So hold yourself to your own standards
During my time in the resistance I realized the truth.
When you’re thrown into the space of uncertainty,
You must push yourself to the next degree
Then I assure, you will emerge with the wisdom of a sleuth.
Like the two searching for knowledge in the Garden of Eden
I sit here in this library, immersed in books.
Although my mind has not yet found freedom,
The search rages on, as I continue to look.
When you look at this situation, you say that it’s my fault.
So from now on, I’ll take your words with a grain of salt.
Everyone has bad days and everyone makes mistakes.
So I’ll just do my best and try to grow,
Because I’m the furthest thing from perfect,
Like everyone I know.
Sing to me oh muse
So that I can delight in the truth
Remind me that with knowledge,
I can never lose.
Unlike the betrayer that doesn’t make a sound
Allow me to shine like the Sun,
That comes from behind the clouds.
I fell in love with her the way you enter a sweet dream.
I didn’t know how it started or how it was going to end.
All I knew was that I was happy and I never wanted to wake up.
I’m lost in the night
I’ve been stuck there forever
Seeing all of these faces
And with none that I can remember
I’ll keep my issues to myself
And try to survive without any help
Because this feeling of sorrow is one I can’t escape
I’ll put my head high and surrender to my fate
When I reached the bridge I was stranded to the side
I looked across the river beyond the reach of Death
It was there that I saw my shinning knight
The sight of her face replenished my health
So I took a deep breath
Then followed the seven lights
