[Sounds of Earth from Space / NASA]
THIS IS THE PLACE in the vastness of space / Eternal – as we see the door, where there once was a wall / Whatever is born of love cannot break your heart, overcomes the world / Choose to act now, don’t leave it to chance / suspend your belief, get out of the trance / Freedom is within your soul / what will you pack when it’s time to go home (*ohm) / All of our dreams are all that we got / everything tangible once was merely a thought // The city lights are in the way of the stars / don’t blind your heart to the pains of the world / entertain you on some lucrative terms / To keep us alone, to make us forget / to silence our thoughts they impair us instead / In search of love, I may neglect to look / beyond this techno digital insanity / The keepers of society, stranglehold my reality and block the light.
HEY... I was once just like you / I valued honesty, I valued truth / Then was j-j-jolted by some earthly haze / WOKE UP! / Hey, I found some better days / Ever moving energy fields of life / death’s a shadow when you walk in light / This world system may be failing me / but I won’t let it touch my inner reality / Nothing is yours, never will it be / Oh, what an irony, a new world order created by society / but I refuse to disconnect my soul from what may be / out of this world and unknown to me / Mission Control – do you copy? / My soul has been burned / my flesh has been beat / but life is abundant, spill it over to those in need / Your actions will lead to your destiny / That’s your “Mission Eternity”. //
