Below Heaven's Wake-

Standing on the street corner Awaiting the time to pass by Like a bus occupied by people A bird's eye view looking up toward the skies Below heaven's gate interview the sun And the blue and the white in the mind wandering Withal and all I sense in my senses while complimenting I stand trial all the things that I've done at last I've overcome I stand at the corner and wait for the second the flash of light To embrace and lift me up and when I open my eyes I'll be at heaven's gate
