i am a father first

"the devil was pumping hate through my veins"

-LL Cool J G.O.A.T.


so?
so what is the go?
which way do i flow?
in what groove do i grow?

shall i plunder him?
what will i win?
i am a father first
for a deeper magic i thirst

all is fair in love and war
so the elders swore
and never too late
is heavens best trait

midnight comes and goes

im still standing
the last one dancing
cloven tracks
fast with the attacks

whirling and swirling
the earth keeps turning
midnight comes and goes
follows its own nose

wander far or near
hold all that is dear
try what you fear to do
let everyone know you

over and over again

one more day ticks by
and my soul lets out a sigh
for angel queen has flown on
and i dread the coming dawn

the memories do race
to strike with the fury of a horses mans mace
over and over again
the pain does not end

the wiser side of life
knows there will be an end to this strife
knows that when i look behind me
one set of tracks will i see beside the sea

crazy enough

i held her as long i could
and knew that i should
not try to possess her
freedom is what she does prefer

still i had to try
i am that guy
crazy enough
to be that tough

what a journey we had!
for that i am glad!!
our children are pure joy
a full life they shall enjoy

she can ruin your faith with her casual lies...

or so big they'll shatter

i want to wander in your dreams
and pick at the seams
to have them bleed
into reality

you think yours dont count
they are too small to matter
or so big they'll shatter
my friend we are all held account

for if you have a soul
you may be so bold
to create as given
the divine vision

the stuff of nightmares

no bad times
without good times
no bad deeds
without good deeds

no virtue without sin
around and around it spin
the stuff of nightmares
and the tales of double dares

where the hero came home
and many fires kindled
for the warmth had dwindled
in the hearts of homes

rags for the suits

such is the balance
daylight to nightly valance
yin to the yang
chorus to the refrain

a harmony of life
riches against the strife
rags for the suits
despair for the loots

because the simple
truth is this
for every shark
there is a dolphin
