Emotion, real emotion

So intense, the passion, flowin through my veins

The notebook is full, the ink no longer spills

Across the pad, that once gave birth

to a love that no one cared to see before

A love that filled our hearts and gave us something to

live for, fight for, die for, now that love is no more.



If I had wings I would fly away from here

Deep down into the dark abyss

Locked away tightly, drained of life entirely

Awaiting the right moment

To awaken the light that once shined so brightly

Seeking to put my mind at ease and find the words to speak



My only wish to inspire you to live, to think

Perhaps to open your eyes, even if just a little at a time

Maybe see things for the very first time

To shed a little light in this dark place you call home

Provide a little warmth when you are sad, lonely and cold

Youre not alone, its you and I

Our differences aside, together we can survive

Forget about our pride and insecurities

Fear is the only thing thats keeping you from me

Compare not, acceptance is key

Take my hand and continue to breathe

Close your eyes. Get lost in the words I speak

Clear your mind, unwind, and begin to think

Not the past, not the future, its the now we seek

Change starts with you, it starts with me

Building a foundation that will never break



Revolution is alive today, stand up

Assemble the masses,

An undiscovered truth, spreading meaning today

Like a virus, shutting down the airways

A lyrical protest, the essence of true beauty in motion

A dream that I had some time ago

Freedom was knocking on my door
