Castle In the Sky-Book 2

(Dedicated to ICP)

We’re all searching for direction
Upon these paths we roam
While trying to find instructions
That will lead us back to home

I have drifted on the oceans
Where a lot of men have drown
Until I heard the wisdom
Of 2 insane juggalo clowns

They spoke of the atrocities
That we live with everyday
I've heard them speak of the sickness
It seems will never go away

They talk about a lot of things
We've tried to hide in shame
They try to tell each one of us
That inside we’re all the same

They emerged from the inner city
From a place we call the hood
They rose out of the middle
Between life’s bad and good

Described a land called Shangri-La
As a castle in the sky
And a long remembered promise
They made to a butterfly

They told the world they’re wicked
So some won't understand
But everything’s now going
Just exactly as they planned
(Book 2 ©1996 "The Journey Ahead or Behind")
God Bless YOU :-) Peace

'They try to tell each one of us That inside we’re all the same' - Love these lines, they're my favourite bit. I love the ending too. It flows very smoothly, I like it a lot. :)
