moon night
Reflections on Life's Turmoil
Lyrics
Please do not tell me I have nothing lose
Please do not tell me I have nothing to lose
I’m seeing the way we carry ourselves
I’m observing how we carry ourselves
Look down on the few
Looking down on the few
Maybe not few
Perhaps not just a few
I meant the opposite and more than a crew
Contrary to few, maybe more than a crew
Gathered the clues
Gathering the clues
I picked 'em all up
Picking up all the clues
It gave me the blues
Resulting in feeling blue
Kerouac blues
Experiencing Kerouac blues
It’s beating me up
The blues are taking a toll
I’m trying to get up
Struggling to rise above
Maybe I should just be done with this cause
Considering ending it all
Day by day
Progressing day by day
It’s seems to get harder
Finding it increasingly challenging
And then those days I dream of my daughter
Dreaming of future days with a daughter
Or my son
Or a son
I ain't got kids, but if I did know
Even though childless, envisioning protection in this world
I protect 'em in a world like this
How can one desire children in such a world?
How could you want them in a world like this
Taking walks, engaging in nature talk
I go on walks with nature talk
Struggling to organize thoughts like Janice does her beats
But I feel like I will never ever ever ever ever be able to organize My thoughts
Reflecting on a night looking at the moon, feeling its communication
Like Janice do her beats
Speculating on special situational timing or mental perception
Last night I was looking at the moon and I swear that I heard it speak
Referencing Michael J. Fox and the Doc
Or maybe that was in my mind then, special situational timing
Describing a chase, the uncertainty of time
But guess it could have even been something crazy like making the time bend
Continuing despite life's uncertainties
Michael J. Fox and the Doc
Referencing Michael J. Fox and the Doc
Running down and being chased by the clock
Depicting a pursuit and being pursued by time
Never know when it will stop
Uncertainty about when it all ends
But I press on cause that’s life ain't it not
Persevering because that’s life
And we all got out luggage
Everyone has their burdens
We all got our baggage
We all carry our emotional baggage
Trying to navigate to our gate without being a savage
Navigating life without causing harm
But sometimes it’s unavoidable ain't it
Accepting the inevitability of savagery
But sometimes it’s uncontrollable ain't it
Recognizing uncontrollable aspects of life
Or is it
Pondering the nature of life's control
