Of My Prescription
I'm here to clarify
My passions that I never defy
Prescriptions of my essence
My drug is my vibe
Addictions to what I do
No cure to my being true
My body is vacant of disease
But my mind is filled with ease.
Please loan me the keys
To the vehicle that drives me to new degrees
Classification of the medicine
That stimulates the rate of my journey into heights of unknown reason
Side effects occurring throughout my rhythmic balance
Alleviating limits to my talents...
Medicine for my membrane
Into a realm that cannot be judged by biased rioters
Looking to destroy my pleasant domain
I'm jumping onto your train
Of thoughts that maestros once sought
Melody of milligrams multiplied to create
Forces that prevent being distraught
Malevolent wars being fought
The battles of good versus evil in your mind
Everyday one of them is going to shine.
So true
Indeed the power of good fights a gruesome battle everyday
Warding off deceitful tendencies
With angels and demons calling the play by play
One of the two will always find a way
To either ruin or make your day
Some pills are harder to swallow than others
Solving the conundrum of the potency of each one
Can be a tedious task
Good will allow you to bask
In victories as evil is unmasked.
Temporary triumph over an enemy that reanimates every morning
Into a new form
A new challenge
However, I do not flee because I haven't a choice
But to respond to the war-call of my enemy's voice.
Do not take your eye off of the confusion
For we all know that confusion is the home of sin
For we know that the 7 deadly are all kin
Continue to fight the whim
Remember sink or swim?
I think I'll choose the latter
In which life over death matters
No more rehearsals once the show called life actually begins
No curtains drop to cover you up
Once you've stumbled through the lines of your part to play
Know your role and execute your performance
Awaken that exceptional part of yourself
Listen to the conformance.
I draw my sword
Knighted on an oath to live
And to succeed
I'm an intricate breed
A prototypical patriarch to my own existence
The cure of common sense
Flows through my veins
Pumps through my heart
And proceeds to my brain
I can't take my life in vain
Reasons for my pain
Can't be comprehended by not only what the basic text books on living life can explain.
My threshold for resistance to the storms is well-documented
My resilience helps to absorb the dark rain
That showers throughout my time; my reign.
And my well collects the waters of life
Each drop represents a trial
A meaningful tribulation
Of each inhabitant of my soul's inner nation.
My citizens are the memories of destinies far and near
I will walk through the shadows with no fear.
No barring of the passage of my right to live
Sharing of myself with others with whom my friendship I choose to give.
This is the make-up of my prescription
My element of life
It's either a hit or it's a miss
My recipe for substantial bliss
Now overdose on this...
