Part of Martin Luther King, Jr. speech. I have a dream

KNOW THE LEDGE

TODAY
I EMBRACED THE NIGHT
FORGOTTEN MEMORIES OF THE DAY
SO I RACED TOWARDS THE LIGHT
HERE IT WAS CLEAR
I REALIZED THE BIG PICTURE
PICKED UP THE SLACK
I STOPPED POINTING MY FINGER
CAN'T BLAME THE NEXT MAN
SOMETIMES PEOPLE AGENDAS
ARE WRITTEN ALL OVER THERE FACES
YOU CAN SPILL OUT YOUR SOUL
IN REAL CONVERSATIONS
WHILE THEY ARE NOT EVEN LISTENING
DRIFTING IN OTHER PLACES
NEVER PAYING ATTENTION
EVEN IF YOU HAVE A HEART OF GOLD
SOMETIMES THEY DON'T CEE IT
I SUPPOSE......
WE ARE THE CONTROLLERS
FOR THE PATH WE CHOSE
HOW HIGH WE HOLD OUR HEAD
IN ANY CHANGE OF WEATHER
SO IF YOUR NOT DEAD
KEEP IT MOVING
JUST KNOW THE LEDGE
AVOID ANY ILLUSIONS.

DREAMING

IT WAS IN THIS DREAM WE BROKE BARRIERS

LIKE THE SONG CANDY RAIN

YOU SHOWERED ACRES OF LANDS

WHICH GREW FRESH FOOD

JUICY FRUIT TO EAT

WE WERE TOGETHER

MIND BODY AND SOUL

BOTH OF US COMPLETE

360 DEGREES IN A CIRCLE WE STARTED TO RUN

AROUND TALL TREES

WITH CHOCOLATE COVERED APPLES THAT HANGED OFF

SWINGING IN THE BREEZE

UNDERNEATH WAS

ME AND YOU

STROKING EACH OTHER WITH VELVET FEATHERS IN OUR TEETH

LAUGHING LIKE THE FIRST TIME WE MET

LIKE A CHILD ON CHRISTMAS EVE

YOU MADE ME BELIEVE

THAT MIRACLES HAPPEN BEYOND 34 STREET

SO A FORT WE STARTED TO BUILD

WHICH GREW INTO A CASTLE

THAT WAS PROTECTED

WITH GUARDS AND SHIELDS

JUST FOR PROTECTION

TO OUTSIDERS WHO POSED A THREAT

YOUR BODY WAS A WEAPON

YOUR MIND WAS A TOOL

LEFT A DOMINO EFFECT OF MEN FALLING DOWN

WITH FACES FULL OF DROOL

I TOOK YOUR HAND

ONE LAST TIME

WE TRAVELED 2

Morocco, India, Japan, Thailand, Korea, China, Alaska, Australia, South America, Puerto Rico, Jamaica, GREECE

BOTH OF US DELIGHTED

FILLED WITH INNER PEACE

ALL BEFORE WAKING UP TO THE COLD REALITY

OF YOU NOT NEXT TO ME


IT WAS IN THIS DREAM WE BROKE BARRIERS!!!
