Other Side

3/27/22 What's going on in the skies? Sometimes It all was just lies People still trying to cut in the bus line Attempting to sever all blood ties Occurring behind the scenes or on the frontlines So much love inside Struggling, but trying to put the alcohol and drugs aside If need be set the guns aside Something died Reached the other side For a long time I suffered by Not giving it all another try Eventually discovered I Could do it all otherwise Now is the time, no need to wait until summertime Still I must climb Before and after the sun rise It all continues on ceasing to subside Unlike any other guy If I want, I'll make the dust fly Although it is not all cut and dry Can't just always settle for being 'just fine' In order to truly feel sublime Knowledge and effort had to be applied Instead of paying it all no mind Letting it get brushed aside
