Switch

Off with the TV.
On with a good book
Off with indolence
On with the vision they took

Off with envy
On with self-love
Off with hate
On with rising above

Off with aimlessness
On with setting goals
Off with being lost
On with soothing the soul

Flipping the switch from down to UP
The light is on; yes, this electricity they can't disrupt

OFF, OFF, OFF to get put on
High vibrations everywhere, leaving negativity alone

ON and ON and ON 'til the break of dawn and back to night
Digging down with good old self-love and fighting the good fight
