Excuse Me Operator

Excuse me operator, I think I’ve been disconnected, To a neurotic world that's seemed to lose its senses, A ceaseless quest of life questions, Where are all of these transcending fairytales and esoteric answers? I am feeling like it’s a foreboding leak of subliminal messages, Declaring all what life isn’t and it's misleading specifications. Just a strategic game of sacrifice and persistence Life is more like blindfolded presentiments. With an apprehensive state of mind I can’t find any logical explanations. Take me to another place, cuz I feel like I’m more arrested than developing, And I’d prefer to forget all that hurts me, and attain a stronger grasp of the Divine plan. If it were up to me, I’d allow the pure of heart to do the master’n, What seems to be a theatrical script, instead reveals a fabricated life, I guess that’s why I’ve been burned, Playing with fire one too many times. It hasn’t fueled any of my desires, I'd rather discover how to rise above being any less than what I have been. I seem to lose sight from time to time, it’s ok there’s so much that I’ve got planned, A little help here is what I'd prefer, rather than be left to sufferin’ Anticipating any offering of alms or beneficence Relying on what draws near and dear to me Solely, my proof has only summoned wolves veiled in sheep's clothing, The weapons of my war aren’t meant to wound, hurt, or destroy, Rather make it my mission’s to be a fisher of men. For me, triumphing over tragedy only works If it utterly relies on the Codes of Compassion. Stillness of heart is what conquers the reckless mind It’s by remaining fixed on the calm when you are amidst the storm Because at times beauty can be clouded by dissonance It's humility that transforms best. Truth be told, our hearts connect on a higher level, It’s the Heart of the Matter where one should revel Existentially, its aspiring to higher realms that exposes such Cosmic clarity, And we are all made of stars, and I have one I know looking out for me. Aware that only a selective few have this Vision of Totality. I pray for a truth and total understanding, Some much needed justification please for the paradox we’re living in. We need to be instruments of peace, and advocates for humanity There’s no better time than now, because it’s now that needs us most to chime in, Wake up World, stop waiting on the sounds of the alarm to kick in, We’re in a bad dream, and it seems there’s no means to an end. Rest assured, it’s surely our fate that’s at stake here, Come clear and become free from the fear, Uncover your mind and avoid indifference. Because the ignorance that’s among us today Will only inevitably breed more monsters It’s not the quality of our lives that matter nor our intentions at best. Its our children’s lives at risk here it’s our humanity that’s put to the test, We need to tame the hate inside our hearts and no longer be misguided its deception, A clean sound mind is the only way we’ll avoid being sucked in, It’s all lies we’ve been given, but it’s not us that needs truth serum. One must avoid falling victim to Plato’s illusion, And cave in, Or be alluded to, A cave within, It’s no doubt at times it feels like all our walls are caving in It’s so perplexing what kind of greets you meet, Trapped in an uncharted bind, Where ignorance trumps being kind No need for disclosure, it's crystal clear, But if one must resonate on new heights, it’ll only exist by tuning in, Just like stardust, enlightenment exists upon its first spark within, It's your light that lights the worlds Illuminating the darkest of skies is what your purpose is Not existing in an illusive world feeling worthless. When you change the way you look at things, things do become clear, It's all a state of mind, avoid the darkness or wavering to its fear. Unveiled truths will start to appear, Past remnants appear like ruins from an ancient civilization, But profound discoveries can only be made If one becomes fixated on the calm they’re more likely to survive the storm they’re in. Galaxies only exist when coalesced matters are true It's most stellar performances may draw you in, But it's matters from the heart that light the whole sky And really fill the void within Right-minded in a wrong world can make you seem insane, I'd rather beat to my drum, than be a participant in this game that two can play. Insanity is only determined by the majority, but whose to say, Ignorance is bliss only if it exists in another fool's play. ~Sealion
