Look Up
Embracing Life's Impermanence
Lyrics
My pride preys for
My pride desires acknowledgment and attention.
Amplification and real big wide lenses
Wanting significant recognition, possibly through magnified perspectives.
But mortality disagrees
But the fact of human mortality contradicts this pursuit.
The heart counts down its beats
The heart is conscious of its limited lifespan and pulses.
My heart counts down its beats
Reiteration of the heart's awareness of its finite beats.
You can choose
You have the option
To scrape away the patterns from your shoes
To remove the established norms or routines.
Because you know that eventually
Because eventually,
Those patterns will wash away
These norms will fade or be erased.
So lose yourself
Therefore, immerse yourself
In the maze that fits in the space where the second hand starts
In the complex situation that occupies the moment of transition.
And finishes
And its culmination.
(Wooh!)
(Expressive exclamation)
The shortest interval on your wrist
The briefest duration marked on your wrist.
I guarantee you that down the line
I assure you that eventually,
You will come back to it
You will return to this moment.
Therein's your blue sky
Herein lies your optimism or hope.
Therein's your blue sky
Repetition emphasizing the presence of optimism.
Therein's your blue sky
Further emphasis on finding hope.
(Biggest of blue skies)
(Amplifying the idea of vast hope or positivity)
Therein's your blue sky
Reiterating the notion of discovering optimism.
(Biggest of blue skies)
(Emphasizing the concept of expansive hope)
Therein's your blue sky
(Expansive positivity in various sensory experiences)
(Biggest of blue skies / In a smell, in a smile, in a sound)
(Expansive positivity in varied sensory encounters)
Therein's your blue sky
(Expansive positivity)
(Biggest of blue skies)
(Continued emphasis on vast positivity)
