It Is Here Today

Don't wish for the moon 
because that is shared too
Then what do I wish?
I can't wish for liberty 
because I already have it
In case you didn't know
God died for you - His son
Can't wish for justice
because justice is what is within us
Can't wish for the stars
because I can see the stars in your eyes
Can't wish for the medieval
because I am in the midst of it
God made the stripes, the blood 
to ink on His back
So we can enjoy this day - today
We are so busy with our misfortunes 
that we forgot He already created our fortune
There is no misdirection, mismanagement, misplacement on His part
We are where we are supposed to be
So rejoice and keep our eyes on God
Can't wish for the sun, the moon
But you can wish for - me
Haha
That is going to be a long time coming
As I take a long time
I don't give in easily
Now what is that did you say?
Say it again
Run by me
Let me think about it
How about tomorrow?
In your dream lol
