Roots Earthbound
Beaten and battered down the old path
Shaken, twisted, and torn by old ideals
Change was always a train of chaos
Seeking to take a joyride with my emotions
Passing through my many lives
Constantly searching for one that fits my persona
Forever it took to discover meaning
Left or right, north or south, no one knew
Perceived by many to have no future
As I was caught in the realm of shadowy doubt
But one light remained in the dark cavern
So to give myself a chance in the ring of life
Slammed into a world of possibility
Not prepared not certain yet determined
To file the goal of my well-deserved fate
Into the life that always meant to lead
My passions do not lie within experienced eyes
For my love lies within skilled dreams outside of tradition
Seeing that no longer that outside opinion would restrain me
My pleasure is historic in nature, but it is not the giver of my happiness
For the key to my life, to my light is naturally my passion
To voice my choice to embrace my talent
Whelmed by work and life I choose to write
Lavished in a world, where hard work pays
