Let me Swim

I...
wanna kick of my shoes...
and jump into the ocean
of zen....swimmin through
something bigger than me
soaked through to my soul
and maybe then...

My soul will hydrate
at a faster rate
so my sins don't become
"dead weight"
cause now...I'm starting to
hesitate...as I open my mouth
to see how the universes waters taste

Cover me please....
like a tsunami
wash over me
till I'm clean
till I'm free
Let your waters cleanse my soul
till my third eye...can clarify
all that I see

Cause lately....
I haven't been able to breathe
so caught up in life's mysteries
been drainin all my energies
Dealin with everyones emergencies
that so urgently capture me...
Waves wash over me....

Let me get free
completely
let me unzip this flesh suit
and jump in...
let my soul do some skinny dippin
cause...these demons in the flesh be trippin
and I am steadily slippin...
So...I just keep grippin ....ahold
to what I believe...
Jah...I know you hear me
so draw near to me
I need relief...

I...
wanna kick of my shoes...
and jump into the ocean
of zen....swimmin through
something bigger than me
soaked through completely... maybe then..
Maybe then I'll  finally
be able to breathe
slow
steady and
free
