Yoke of Life
I received so many wonderful gifts
I'm thankful and oh so grateful
I had a good amount of uplifting lifts
Life is so abundant and beautiful
Spill it all to the floor some more
I heard you shut the front door
You cry victim - it amazes me
Lights grow dim - you want to be set free
I'm thirsty for special attention, especially from you
I'm craving clever change in my life too
My head is spinning round and round like a tornado, destroying many cities
Catastrophe brews in my mind's eye that's still blind from several debris
Spill it all to the sky up high
I heard you sorrowfully cry and sigh
You weep bitterly - it is horrendous
The sky's glittery - it is enormous
life is one huge mug of coffee with creamer of all kinds
life is filled up with signs that are like white blinds
Most of my life, I've been struggling to meet the finish line
Oh no, I accidentally met up with the dead end - now I'm feeling fine!
Oh yes, I purposely fell in love with solitude's hold
My heart is pounding as fast as a cheetah in fields of gold
spill the Yoke of life upon me
Be still, healing is near, you see?
spill the Yoke of life upon me
Get up and get over the sensation of envy
Life is...a maze of bewilderment and sentimental glee
Life is...killing me softly and oh so quickly
Come on and let life unfold and inspire many unknown
My life has been constructed by being all alone and on my own
Isolated by the wave of fans and enemies
I got to say - behave and be brave please!
Live life to the fullest
I would love to try my best
Finally, I've made your heart cheery and proud
Emerald gold is for the ambitious spirit - so bold and loud
Empathetic individuals surround me now
Finishing up my poetry book in a jiffy somehow
I wish life would be a lot easier
Live life to the best of your ability for sure
I shine bright in the light
I shine bright when I take flight
Tonight, you and I will Own the Night
Tonight, you and I will fight the great fight
Today, I pray for a brighter day
Don't fill my heart with utter dismay
I pray, I pray, I pray for a wonderful day
I shine, I shine, I shine so bright in the light of today
I'm ashamed for what I've done
I said goodbye and now, you're gone
I used to shine so bright with happiness
Now look at me - I'm an ugly mess!
In the light of today,
I quietly pray
In the autumn breeze,
I'm put at ease
In the light of this day,
Serenity comes my way
In the night of disarray and dismay,
Depression and chaos produce today
If you're not brave enough,
Suck it up then
If you're not strong enough,
Then try again
If you're not confident,
Suck it up then
If you're not triumphant,
Then try again
I pity you
I really do
You have no clue
How much I love you
You have no clue
You really do
You pity me? How dare you...
Get on the ball and soak up the yoke of life
My emotions fall away into the abyss of strife
Be still, know that sorrow is temporary
You cry victim - it amazes me
So, spill out life upon me, darling
Soak up the yoke of prosperity...sincerely...
Spill the yoke of life upon the universe
Life, in general, is a gift, not a curse
This emptiness inside me will never be complete
Make me whole again and back on my feet
Spill the yoke of life upon you and I
Reach out to the sky and fly away on by
The less we know,
The better, you know?
You cry victim - it amazes me
You cry victim - it enthralls me
You'll receive the fortune of positivity
So, come on and soak up the yoke of prosperity
