oh great spirit
show me a sign
i know you watch from above
they say these feelings are passing
but lately i find emptiness
whenever I’m searching for love
tell me there’s someone
someone out there somewhere
who aches for this world just like me
send me your guidance
i won’t take it for granted
your land and your glorious sea
waves they are crashing
sweet and slow i hear them
and look up into the stars
soften my hardness
this rushing intensity
as this scorpion
hides behind mars
i don’t want a shortcut
i won’t take no handouts
i know this path won’t lead me astray
i balance my heartbeat
reach for my center
as a mantra builds within me
i will not harm and i will surrender
every thing deserves its time
deep down inside i trust and remember
when better judgment ruled over these lies
if only we forgive ourselves and our neighbors
move forward with ease and grace
we’d see fierce warriors everyday saviors
no separation no borders no race
with this prayer i am committed
to giving my life for this cause
i will not look down, laugh, or disparage
those for their mistakes and flaws
such imperfection is what makes us equal
no creature more high or below
lay down your weapons
throw up your peace signs
and live a life more humble and slow
here we are and here we will remain
we’ll teach each other the way
and if you fall I’ll be there to catch you
and i hope you’ll do the same for me
