The sound

Sometimes I cannot breathe a word When I feel on top of the world, Sometimes I cannot breathe a word When I am walking with the crowd When reality confronts me and the cares of Life rest upon me and my muscles are torn I have to continue to journey towards the shores It was just the other day I saw you on the big stage Running to and fro singing songs of joy that Rocked the crowd, the moment you hit the stage The people were crying out for more And suddenly a mania captivate the entire town And a mantra was dancing in the clouds Sometimes I cannot breathe a word I just have to observe Sometimes I cannot breathe a word; I have to listen to destiny when it shouts. The mornings are peaceful and the evenings are strong But I am pressed to compose this new song The rhythm cannot come out but the words are Screaming out and the lyrics are free. See them dancing in the street They are happy and filled with glee Something good has transpired on the other side And they are celebrating with all their pride The end is drawing near and the grand jubilee is finally here Sometimes I cannot breathe a word When destiny is parading in the town With the music over the beat rattles my eardrum. I suddenly create a brand-new sound And the words finally came out
