I Wanna Be Free
I wanna drink Tequila with some Mexicans
and smoke ganja with some Jamaicans
and get high
I wanna dance in Africa
and kiss the sun in the Serengeti
and spend nights moon bathing in the sky
I wanna own the wind
and give shout outs to powers within
I wanna be free of sin
I wanna not be able to give in to temptations
unless it's dancing to the rhythm of change
I wanna hear all the angels clapping and shouting my name
Sometimes I visit different planes of thought
and I realize that I am already those things
and it feels a bit strange
So I wait for my subconscious to realize
that truly enlightening day
I yearn for a feast of knowledge
and I incessantly pray
that I can co-exist with the universe
I began to look within it's soul source
and I saw myself sowing seeds of poetry and music and dance
I saw myself climbing mountains and overcoming circumstance
I saw beautiful rings of green and gold and purple lilacs
growing by a stream
I saw myself happy to just be
surrounded by the rhythm of the breeze
because yes it does have one
I follow it when I feel the need to become
more aware
And I train my heart through knowledge and meditation
and I write to the pain I bare.
I produce chances to reflect upon for granted luxuries of life
I see myself with an abundance of blessings without a price
I wanna continue to love.
I wanna continue to believe.
But I what I don't want that feeling to do
is continue to
leave.
