Satisfaction of Heart
Holding something in your heart
That will never perish
Something we'll always cherish
Never fall apart
We got satisfaction in our hearts
The things outside this world
So special
More than that of a sparkling pearl
One day we'll wake up
Realize the arms we take up
Be sincere
Apologize and make up
Not part of my protégée
But worked into this strategy
How you doing where you been
Haven’t seen you since I was like ten
The way I feel will never wear off
Print tattoos that'll never tear off
Even though I didn't know my brother
I wish it could've been another
Now this little world took apart of me
Some where down the line
Someone will stretch this art for me
Though we mislead trust
The futures still in front of us
And if love could teach
then for love we reach
But we'll never fall apart
Got satisfaction in our hearts
It's a world at rage
They tell us
"Keep harsh feeling caged, act our age"
Didn’t' want to be a burden
So I closed the curtains
Closed my eyes
And hoped it would close the hurting
Situation never let the tears settle
Don't let it reign drops of metal
Even if I never grow to be a better man
I’ll leave you with a leaf
A treasure within a wish to consider
Please understand
If I knew how every situation would end
Stress wouldn’t be considered
My objective and demand
Between you and me it’s a given hand
And if tomorrow
Doesn’t grace us with its presence
Then we’ll remind failure
Of the beauty and essence
Of a once populated land
As my conscience and well being
Occupied me in my final stand
Deliver me to peace
With winds blown from the east
Now that I’m grown
I guess I looked to the troubles to cease
Picture that
A day in the eyes of nothing to say the least
Though this little world took apart of me
Some where down the line
Someone will stretch this art for me
Though we mislead trust
The futures still in front of us
And if love could teach
Then for love we reach
But we'll never fall apart
Got satisfaction in our hearts
