Food.
i don't need you
to really get through
this world
no, this daughter of a girl
only really needs
water
to feed on
yeah, right or wrong
my spirit man's song
is
to shout
and to do without
yeah, for a long
period of time
yeah, no meats
no sweets
or no wine
with lime
but rain
or come shine
it is really
fasting time
yeah, most days
graze graze graze
here HE is
yeah, in me
and in you
and in a sky
so blue
and in a baby
so new
goo goo
gaga
yeah, i love my
HEAVENLY POPA
and here HE is
in man
and in the writing
in the sand
yeah, our hands
and feet
are complete
because of...
HIS sweet
deep
love
MAN
my insides
hold so much pride
yeah, I need to push it aside
and just tide
with GOD
yeah life is hard
but my guard
should always be down
when HE is around
this clown
with tears
and fears
and years
of
the lack of romantic love
but that's neither here nor
yeah, because GOD
has been more than fair
to me
yeah, even if
my insides
can not see
where HE be...
MAN
i yearn
to get naked again
yeah, to feel the wind
and the sun
on my skin
yeah, with no sin
or no pretend
yeah, just the kinship
of God
yeah, where life was not
hard for a wife
or a woman
yeah, we meant something
good
and stood
for it
soaking wet
with no sweat
yeah, sunrise
sunset
God,
you serve
me
words
and proverbs
yeah, actions
of satisfaction
yeah, guaranteed
love
from up above
yeah, sometimes
like a dove
or a lion
yeah, like a ball
you be flying
towards the future
and hoping...
that you will see
there
so it's almost bedtime
so i guess, I will write a rhyme
to try to define
what is really on my mind
yeah, no sunshine
makes me sad
yeah, no sunlight
gives me fright
at night
yeah, because
I have no love
to speak of
and hold me tight
but...
morning will come
yeah, there is still a dawn
yeah, even if
the darkness
does shift
or
no one comes
to lift my head
from my bed
yeah, as long as I'm alive
and not dead
and my blood
is still moving
like a flood
this here child
can still smile
for a little while
longer
wow.
these thoughts
have made me
stronger
Popa
what is your plan?
mine is to stand
and to walk
all over this land
yes, Father, please say I can
or that I will
yes, Lord, I'm tired of being still
or disable
so yeah, please remove this heavy table
and chair
yeah so, I can really go somewhere
yeah, here and there
without a care
in the would
yeah, Heavenly Daddy
please help your girl
twirl
like a pearl
oyster's mouth
yeah, north and south
please get me out of this house
yeah, in Jesus Name
no more pain
no more shame
Amen
