Higher Ground
I can't explain why my bronze brown skin has opened your frame of mind
I can't say why I could loose track of time reading you lines of my endless
thoughts in notes that I wrote
Personalized to no one other than my own words themselves
I plan to be on shelves of my hearts library
I want to explore this world that prophets talk about
I want to get out to this hell hold
Yet he will keep me hear 10-fold
Like fools gold my image is misleading to the eyes
Yet the ears hear the knowledge of my lips' taste
My face only distracts you to be mystified by my words' mood to replace
monotonous views
Holistically I move you in the e waves of my bloods stream
Like waking in ice water from a bad dream
A GLUT OF IRONY, what does this mean?
It never seems to get bad enough
The worst is yet to come
Like the many mansions, the many mansions in my fathers kingdom
I give you the words of the 14th chapter first verse of John
There he goes to prepare a place for me
Before I was born, I lived there
Before I came here I was above the hell here
I could understand because I wasn't human
I was an angel with love from every angle of my wing tips
When Noah built his ark my heart poured out to him in the form of raindrops
