Hidden Sun 04:56
Red signal tower ceaselessly repeating, Like a strong, deep heart that's always beating, With the asphalt in front of me, To the night I look inward to see. I think of who I am, And what I've be-come, Reflected light from the moon shows the way, Rays of hope from a hidden sun. In the day, flowers dance in the fields, As they fade, what will darkness reveal, The road dips in gray depression, To e-merge on a radiant hill. In the dim glow of countless streetlamps, I see myself as I am and do not run, Reflected light from the moon shows the way, Rays of hope from a hidden sun. With no headlights straight into ghostly night, like a heavy gray coat, See the black and white world like a familiar friend, And the moon as a glimmer of home. I think of who I am, And what I have not done, Reflected light from the moon shows the way, Rays of hope from a hidden sun.

There’s gonna be a… Fight! Tonight! The black and the white, The left and the right, The will and the might Fists and bombs and knives and guns Beliefs and sex, revenge and fame Guns and knives and fists and bombs Money and gangs, zealots and sects diff’rent walks, diff’rent plights, diff’rent thoughts There’s gon-na be a… Fight! Tonight! The black and the white, The left and the right, The will and the might Guns and knives and fists and bombs Money and gangs, zealots and sects Fists and bombs and knives and guns Beliefs and sex, revenge and fame diff’rent walks, diff’rent plights, diff’rent thoughts There’s gonna be a… Fight! Tonight! The black and the white, The left and the right, The will and the might

Encounters 06:12
What, do you see When you look, to the sky? Millions of stars, sparkling twilight Think, about all The worlds you can't see Is there something out there gazing back at me Will we talk? Could they speak? In a language that we both reach Would they have, Arms and legs Fingers, toes and a head Could they breathe, and desire Do they dream, and aspire Would they sleep? Do they see? How precious, this life can be? Would I lose my head when we first met Would I shout? Would I run? Would we embrace instead Would they act…just the same? Maybe they would have the same names If we could,…would we mate? Would I share their bed Could we share a fate? Or would they lose their head when we first met Would they shout, would they run would they rip me to shreds? Think about all The worlds you can't see Is there something out there gazing back at me?

“Tomorrow is a new day, You will begin it serenely, With too high a spirit, To be encumber with your own nonsense. Forget them," Forget them, "As soon as you can," As soon as you can! -Ralph Waldo Emerson
