Bumping into facts
That opened my eyes
Denials shades
Cracked at my feet
As the intro to truth
I did not want to meet
Shook my hands with an icy grip
So Frozen solid it began to stick
Until I slipped back
Into my bag of tricks
Keeping me from facing
And bracing these licks
Sometimes revelation
Feels like the lash of whips
I see, but I do not want to know
I hear but I do not want to care
My perfect portrait of your view
Framed with innocence, baby blue
Has toppled its tower, fallen apart,
You have recklessly broken my heart
Still wearing those old cracked around
Have convinced you that
I am blind and planted in your ground
So you continue, as if nothing is wrong
Singing your old whine and grind song
Working me into the melody of the throng
That help to push me forcefully along
Breaking your flow of influence
I now walk and talk with common sense
I massage my mind with god’s word and presence
Relieved from the knots and bolts that made me tense
Just being me without your shadow and pretence
I am discovering my self again
I am uncovering my hidden self to rain
The wind blows through my hair
Without a care or thought of fear
Whistling with the breeze as light as air
Rolling with the rapids with force and might
I thank the almighty for giving me true sight.
I forgive you for your indiscretions of night
I forgive you with grace and mercy of light
Adieu, I must move on and take my flight.
