Shadow

Look at sky above you and tell me what you see Listen to the sounds around you and carved out The giant wave that is beating on heightened rocks And scrolling around the sea with open guts The clouds are getting dark and the eagle is Having an altercation with the lark and destiny Is crawling on its knees in the dark Look at the shadows in front of you, the thirsty Desert is mourning for you, the journey is long But courage will push you along so keep pressing on The shapeless day keep slipping away and The morning and the evening embodied in one And my heart is singing a courageous song A Force is coming towards thee with magnitude And power, to break the hearts of steel and Push you around in the ferries wheel Look across the sea and tell me what you see The sparrow on the line with its bulging eyes Has set out a pattern for you to move Walk straight then pivot when you confront the dark The sun has gone down and And destiny is about to hit the ground Strap yourself to the tree and the Shadows will pass over thee.
