Karmanifesto
I have found new ways to shape your view of the world
I am the last coin that drops into the cash till
I am the bank statement that makes you feel so ill
I am the busker on the corner who can rap and rhyme
I am the sirens call when you stock up on iodine
I am the flickering light of the bulb that will grow dim
I am the mother of nature telling you not to give in
I am the last drop drippin’ from the tap in the sink
I am the only thing that pulls you back from the brink
I am the blank screen on your useless device
I am the reason you won’t ever think twice
I am the neighbour asking you for bread and water
I am the lamb brought to your innocent slaughter
I am the the cat who knows so much more
I am the rising flood coming up through your floor
I am the poor little child who keeps asking why
I am the only answer that can ever satisfy
I am the dead tone ringing on your stupid phone
I am the reason why you do not feel alone
I am the refugee camping on your balcony
I am the true meaning of serendipity
I am the burning banknotes when you get cold
I am the empty shelf when everything is sold
I am the last shelter when you’re home is gone
I am the secrets deep inside you that you have known all along
I am the joker who cracks you up when you have no more fun
I am the rebels song that is ready to be sung
I am the beggar knocking hard on your front door
I am the reason why less is more
I am the beginning of your end and the end of your beginning
My name is Karma Love Kid. By me is pervaded all these universes.
