Pay No Mind

Hello Honey... Are you awake
I'm back from the depths of humanity... 
she won't let me down, for goodness sake
Excuse me... I know where we went wrong
shh... smile, don't let them get the best of you
I've got you're back, be good to me, I'll be good to you 

the dangers of second guessing,
it's all about communication and compromise!
I have to keep reminding myself to have patience and meditate
or go for a walk when I'm stressed or flustered!
many have persecuted, alienated.. I stay sane... 
... ... ...
how do I do it... it's beyond me, like no pain no gain 
it's self-control, it takes every breath I take, every step I make,
I don't allow petty things to get to me...
I may have to do some blocking again...
you can't get a rise outta me,
to be great is to walk with the people not rise above...
I may stand out from the crowd
but I can blend in any environment like a chameleon! 

After a few whiskeys and some meditation and prayer
I woke up today feeling brand new...
no hangover, I don't drink to get drunk,
I don't do anything for the high,
I'm already high on life ...
I do it to kick back and relax or have a good time.
rowdy people ruin my buzz, it takes a better man to walk away

get out of my life you toxic waste
on the tip of my tongue I've got a sour taste
I must not waste my breath
I must stay sound of mind
I must not worry about petty things
pay no mind to petty drama
be care-free, who cares what other people say
if it doesn't concern me it doesn't matter anyway
they can say whatever they want about her and I 
they don't know us like we do
we don't need to rush, we don't need to unleash fire
we rekindle the flame and rise up from the ashes
we leave the beast to rest to lay his head in a blanket of ashes
feet do the walking... assholes sit the hell down... 

we move on together as one union
together we are an unstoppable force
of nature that can't be reckoned with
some call it whatever they want to call it
but we won't make it a myth

she has forgiven me and my reasons are justified
we have been through hell and back and we're not going back
we'll move onward bound as one, leaving that broken world in the background noise
we pay no mind to the noise of the world, to be a balanced poise

she's the one I left behind
she's always on my mind
the mind can't be fooled
when the heart is in the right place
I've always loved her and I always will
nothing or no one will ever change that
you'll see us happily enjoying our lives
life's to short to waste any more time
we will take our time and enjoy the time well spent

we made it to the final song
where truth meets justice for all
we can not tell no lie
we rise where we fall
we wouldn't have a purpose
when we think we know it all
we haven't even began to scratch trough the surface
where do we go from here
to the start or to the finish line
we can take our time
and no one knows us like we know ourselves
do we live in a box headcase... 
and still we don't know what to do
but to follow the heart 
I'm not a fool for you
remember the words you spoke
We can laugh now but it is no joke
I have nothing to hide, no reason to run
what is your biggest fear... what are you capable of
A weapon of mass destruction
or a peace of mind that we found
I rain on your parade... A walk in silence
I thought it would be a walk in the park
there was no light where there was dark
and my good ole friend has come to meet with me again
where the ocean meets the land
I hope you find yourself there... 
oh earth and sea,,, let it be
time is running out... 
what will I do, where will I go,
when the hourglass runs out
Will I have to walk out into the desert alone?
swim in the sea... Angel Angel... will you follow me?
we are the enlightened ones... a God and a Goddess at heart
we like to feel that surge of energy sending shock waves down our spine
we have to take our sweet time... enjoy our lives as one...
we have to prove the world wrong... lay it all down on the line
I humble myself before you honey... I lay my crown at your feet...
it's okay it's okay... if our hearts are a little off-beat... 

If I don't see you before the flowers wilt...
we have to move on and love someone new
this love is a power, a tower we built
Mother will she take me along for a ride
Am I really forgiven or will she lay on the guilt?
I'm not a second guess, a second choice
I'm no longer an echo, I'm a dissonant voice
A highway love song that lovers don't sing
I'm not a alternative for another, an ultimatum for another one or the other
 there is only you, but I can learn to love someone new
Women is plural, love is in the air... beautiful women everywhere
the one is the one who will let me be the one
not a ghost of perdition or a goblin in the desolate smog
your choice if you want to stay there, I'm right here, right now
yesterday is gone, today today... tomorrow isn't promised
the flowers are for the one who believes I'm the one
I'm not fighting for love anymore... I'm not hiding from the truth anymore
now leave it where it was... it is what it is... but it doesn't have to be this way
hiding out between four walls, come home, come home you say
should I make you cream in your jeans from the distance
should I run through the ninth star gate... knock your socks off...
make love to you like a heavenly hell... heated up, boost up

...or shall we take our sweet time...
go sit in a tree and tell fairy tales 
tell closed minded folklore in the coffee shop....
spend our whole lives bouncy and bubbly... easy breezy...

Enlightment isn't all sunshine and rainbows
it's got to storm sometimes
are you afraid of the lightning?
Oh dear lord if I'm wrong strike me down some day
from the feminist cloud...
Zues never really came back down with the intention to stay
...I won't abandon you... I'm not the Gypsie king, I'm not the beast of burden... rage nor fury
I am the connoisseur of assorted affairs, my own judge and jury
the man who understands what's going on... 
and there's nothing I can do or say to change that, therefore I'll wait til the flowers wilt...
than I'll move on... take my spirit to the sky... walk in stride and don't ask why
love someone who deserves a chance to be the one... say something say something

I'm all out of the question... I need an answer... why why why... the owl said who who who
the crow said caw caw caw ... to damn real for my own good...
to damn good to survive in a world that is raw raw raw... ha ha ha...
I chuckle, I sneer, I sidewind, I stear... I'll slide left of center... with no tear... 
there was a time when I thought I wasn't good enough for anyone and I was
the question is, are you good enough for me... are you good enough for anyone else but me...
after all this time I come back and I get nothing but grief... I want closure... or love love love
Do you deserve the flowers or shall I give them to someone worthy... you are worthy...

I don't need I don't want... but I have needs and wants
If you can't satisfy,,, why do I bother... I'm done, done, done
don't let the flowers wilt... it'll be your loss not mine
you don't even know your own self-worth...
I lift you up... and you say sucker...
well I didn't fall for you... I snuff the snuffer...
I drain the tainted souls from the eye of the tornado...
and there's nothing they can do or say about it...
who did you wrong... not I, not I said the bear...
yes you, yes you said the wolf...
who knows, not me, I was just trying to learn how to live... 
the life of the hurting kind sort of fell upon me...
I never meant to hurt you in the end... 
All I ever wanted was to be at one with the universe...
to feel, to think, to see, to love, in silent awe... justice like a God
what have we done... you're the one if you believe you're the one...
