More Poetry and Song Lyrics
Today is a day just like any other day
But something changed in me
The thinking stopped just long enough
For soul to be set free
Chorus
My mind tells me foolish things
My heart disagrees
My stomach turning nauseously
Stillness sets me free Stillness sets us free
Free to Be Free To Be, just free to be.
For years I am manipulated
Told I should be segregated
Countless thoughts that I negate.
This small still voice now integrates
That stillness sets us free to be
To clearly see and let go of the "me"
With all that is agree.
Resistance flee's
At peace indeed
I thought they were the enemy
But now it’s plain to see
The predator wasn’t them
The predator wasn’t me
This fact has set me free
It’s hard to do
It’s hard to say
But simple does not mean easy
My mind can be so damn busy
Rerun shows from yesterday
Stillness speaks so quietly
Yet my head can be so loud
Stillness has humility
The ego says it’s proud
Stillness has the questions
The ego claims our lives
Stillness has the answers
The ego is truth suicide
Stillness is the whys and whose
To ego it’s just win or lose.
My spirit soars infinity
Ego defense but criminally
Spirit rises above the pain
Ego considers only gain
Spirit stretches beyond mere sound
Ego fixated on the ground
In Stillness Spirit demonstrates
All Truth the ego can’t see.
Cannot bring up in front
Of ego this forbidden subject.
When we do the mindless chatter
Will most certainly disagree
Spirit whispers softly
We can choose to be free.
Ego fears its death
So keeps us in captivity.
Ego keeps us locked in chains
Accusation defends the pain.
Ego speaks with countless lies.
Of course if asked it must deny.
At first the beast will scream in pain.
Belting loud the shift’s insane.
Walk tall, stay present just the same.
There may be times the ego recites a monologue
Never stopping, so boring and long
Spirit ego spouts is weak
And will cause our fall.
Spirit does not know of fall.
Spirit ignores the ego’s call.
Spirit is right by our side.
Spirit was present upon our birth.
Spirit watches over us through life.
Spirit will guide us from this body we die.
Spirit will rise to the top.
The ego is only a short pit stop.
Listen closely to the silence.
The micro between thought
Go within and feel the soul
Allow the passing of the past
And all that spirits not.
Resent not the ego for there is value
Even in this dark for without night, the dim,
The black we could not know the light.
