our design code

how i describe our essential nature

that which we are born to be


i was very fortunate as a child

when i was still pretty young

i asked my father

how do you deal with this


his response to me was

i don't know what to tell you boy

your going to have to

work that out for your self


i had a very fortunate childhood


although it wasn't all fun

i wasn't lied to

shadow

never stand

in your own shadow

no more time

no more time to stand around
all those dreams still not quite found
now the truth is clear to me
i've lost enough and now i'm free

the game of life i'll never win
they lied to me  -  but that's their sin
mine was falling for their story
fantastic tales of wealth and glory

many think they know the way
but don't believe in what they say
creation makes us what we are
and each must follow his own star

no matter what the world thinks true
you find the truth inside of you
to lose your self too much in thought
will lead to being what your not

in silent moments here inside
i found the spark that almost died
and regained what i had lost
that precious gift beyond all cost

our essence is what's rightly made
it's truth is through the heart relayed
but we must heed the spirits call
that lives within the heart of all

do not push

do not push on another
he in truth is your brother
there's only one life
that we share

tho we feel so apart
cause we live without heart
and of kindness
we don't seem to care

all this we could change
and the mess rearrange
but the grudges and greed
have to go

the past has been bad
yet more vengeance is sad
and the pain
will continue to grow

the chain  must be broken
our love can't be token
we have to find
some other way

to deal with this life
and end all the strife
or the debt
will become to great to pay

it only will start
if we each do our part
and let go
of the blame and the hate

we must find here inside
some way not to hide
from the truth
before it's too late

for the pain  -  it is growing
the signs are all showing
a breakdown
is not far away

but all talk is cheap
it's the trust we must keep
with our heart
we must face the new day

exploring the great secret

of me and you

schedule

if life gets too scheduled

it ain't no fun to be alife

always

there will always be

those who go forward

and those that get

left behind
