    Just one of those ones that poured when I was in the mood. First time i've been in the mood in a long time....




    Over and over, again and again
    I'm reminded of things and I try to pretend
    Like I knew all along, but the truth is,
    I forgot, and the proof is,
    I fell off, the path I was on,
    Relaxed when the roughness let up,
    Went to sleep just to be woke up, again,
    By pain I invited in through stagnation and addiction,
    Allowing anger and affliction
    To envelop my mind, forgot how to unwind
    And just be me, my eternal be, the place where I can truly see,
    A bit more of how the events surrounding me,
    Are caused by me, can be changed by me and are a part of me.
    It's time to stop the cycle of remembrance
    And create an entrance to the place I wanna be,
    Now, not later, 'cause with time the challenge is greater
    And I've got to catch up, keep up and get ahead of this game of karma,
    Help others to do the same, associate positivity with my name,
    Do something helpful with this body, despite the pain it may bring
    Because life will bring it no matter what I do
    And I have no clue what comes next, but it's starting to make sense
    And I want it to stay that way, I can't forget to play lest my turn get skipped,
    And when my soul is ripped from this body I'll be smiling because I lived, loved, and laughed with wide eyes.
