The Present Moment

I need this to release,
I believe in peace,
I believe in something greater than me
There is just one race,
Feel it in your heart you are part of it,
It doesn’t matter who started it,
We need to commit to be smarter than
The evil that tries to tear us apart,
Look at us,
We are living in art
I said look at us,
We are living in art

This is nothing but a dream,
Reality moves past me
Like a stream
So I dip in my feet,
Then jump in whole heartedly
Honestly,
What was stopping me?
No one was watching me,
Probably,
If they saw me they saw a wannabe
But this is my biography,
A tragedy and a comedy,
A fantasy in a dichotomy,
I try to tell my story modestly,
With all the glory and shame,
A peak into to my psychology,
I can't remain the same,
Can’t wait to be great,
So I lay down the weight and embrace changing everything

let this rhythm take me away,
Back in the day,
A young child at play,
Wild to tame,
Took a while but I became,
Styled by the pain,
So pile on the rain,
I need to escape my old ways,
Nah need to relate to be stable
I need be grateful
Need to deflate my ego,
Let go of this ecosystem,
I am a victim of the placebo symptoms,
But gifted with the ability to be well written,
Self-created conditions,
There is no prescription,
So I accept the mission,
This is just what I needed,
Only if I see it for what it is,
Only if I believe I can swim,
The mind is everything,
So I begin to really live,
Only when I let go absolutely,
Fool me once that's on you,
Fool me twice, I got work to do,
Back in booth,
I pick up my tools,
Breaking the rules,
Thank you to those I look to for the truth,
Thank you for the boost
I use no excuse,
No substitute,
My pursuit is to rescue the confused,
Together we can make it through the pollution,
We can live in the solution,
Power ruins us
Institutions rule us,
But we are all just humans,
We need to tune in to a unified movement

I need this to release,
I believe in peace,
I believe in something greater than me
There is just one race,
Feel it in your heart you are part of it,
It doesn’t matter who started it,
We need to commit to be smarter than
The evil that tries to tear us apart,
Look at us,
We are living in art
I said look at us,
We are living in art

This is nothing but a dream,
Reality moves past me
Like a stream
So I dip in my feet,
Then jump in whole heartedly
Honestly,
What was stopping me?
No one was watching me,
Probably,
If they saw me they saw a wannabe
But this is my biography,
A tragedy and a comedy,
A fantasy in a dichotomy,
I try to tell my story modestly,
With all the glory and shame,
A peak into to my psychology,
I can't remain the same,
Can’t wait to be great,
So I lay down the weight and embrace changing everything
