Take Care

Take care in radiant delight Take care in sharing His light Take care Care to share What’s on your mind? You won’t be left behind Optimism will overwhelm us We are on the same rowdy bus Be strong in all aspects of life Even if strife cuts like a knife There are beginnings to our ends Our benevolent brilliance blends With His gracious, zealous spirit Intuition and illumination with it My cup of coffee is to hear you My cup of coffee is to believe in You My cup of coffee is to love you My cup of coffee is brewing all anew Something in me has changed forever it seemed My smile within me will mask the insane pain I feel You feel it too…yeah, I could tell…your expressions screamed Right in my face and then, I knew for certain like no big deal You are the veins that go into my heart… You are the oxygen I breathe from the start Trying with all these difficulties in mind constantly Crying because I’m hating, yet loving the struggle strangely I am a sinner Yet, a winner I am a beginner of this happiness of genuine sensations Drain away the madness… Shatter away the sadness… Build me up with gladness… Not this worldly, lust-clustered badness… I bleed instantly from the aftershocks of grief You deep fry me in the oils of ripening relief You gave me grace So, I give You glory You lift my sad face Gave me beloved liberty Gave me a take care freely Fake it till you make it That’s what they all say But I want to mean it with all my strength In every miniscule angle, way and length I shake off the distress mess Drink in inner and outer success I party because my heart lies on the dance floor I will unlock possibilities that I adore so much more My family doesn’t mind me having a good time As long as I don’t get out of hand with perfect crime Dance with me…for a little mile of a while While I pray we be safe tonight You care, I can tell success in on another isle Take care, sunshine of holy might My heart is heavy with happiness when I pray to You My heart dances and skips beats, nothing really new California dreaming out of the blue, But my heart's home is in Havasu Heartfelt home is in Havasu… A Malibu times a thousand too… Yeah, I said it As I rise above this pit This pit of regret Ever-piling debt Freedom is my home park Care to share our arduous ark? You surround me like a shark Yet, I fly away like a lovely lark Ripped apart aimlessly as usual Mend me, faith fuel, fix me true Priceless, Your great Word is to me Feeling hazy and lazy and crazy You are the rain and sparkling sea Floating like a forever drifting daisy Yeah, I said it… And I must admit, I don’t care to be my old self, so selfish, I do care to give up my useless, reckless wish Curiosity will never truly… Bring me to my weary knees With You entirely, I am free I will try to do what you please You promise to keep me and family at ease Such dark times got me feeling tired Unprepared for tomorrow’s much-desired… Inspired…not-expired…glee-wired Yesterday…yesterday… Of chaotic, frantic dismay Yesterday will be put in the back burner I will not remain this helpless tear-jerker Take care not to spend our time wastefully Take care and you will see your true destiny Take care Take heart Can’t bear To see you fall apart Leave regrets outside No longer should you hide
