One look at the sky

Take a good look at the sky and examine the cloud as it passes by
It is white and blue all the way through and it has a message for me and you.
The sun is blazing beneath the clouds sending a strange heat upon the earth
Those of you that have felt it will soon learn of nature’s benefits.

I grieved but once when the sun goes down
And the universe starts spinning around
It’s like the whole world was coming together
and destiny meets at the altar. 

It wasn’t wedding ceremony or the exchange of vows
It was the secret place where madmen meet to disseminate 
Hardcore secret in the street, and when the clouds show no form
The universe raises it arms and a new world is born.

Nature has done no harm; nature has sent it all
Spare the grape on the vine and vineyard will be thine
Move with courage through the sky and listen to the wind
as it parachutes through the air with the glory of the youth.

The mountain rages war with the sea
And the earth languishes with thee
The moon in its orbit has a mission to complete
For the truth will set the galaxy free

What we see is beyond human reach
And you embark on a mission to capture it all
For it takes just one person to reveal ball
The rocket you can see,
but when the heart plunge in deep despair 
no one will be there.

Come and make this voyage with me
For the mass is what you see 
but a big hole is looking at me.	

The human frame is dry
and wisdom is planted in the sky
the beams are low
 but destiny has a very long way to go.

My heart rumbles when daylight
For there is no shelter in the sky
The clouds are moving, and I am searching
For the perfect place that I can call home
Where missiles and bombs are not flying in the air
And nature has much to share.

Take me to the place where the air is clear
The place were weapons have no burden to bear
I don’t want to go over there for thousands of missiles 
And drones are flying everywhere
They are dispatched every hour and there is no cover
 the trees around are strong 
 but the village will burn to the ground

Do what your heart tells you to do
But weigh the consequences through and through 
And if you are at peace with it, the world will
Join with you to settle the final score
 and you will never have to watch the door

One look at the sky will remove the shame from your eyes
One look at the sky will adjust the original plan
 and you will have peace on the land
one look at the sky and the sun will rise
and the heaven will meet with the earth
and destiny will give birth,
 just one look at the
sky and your soul will never die.
