Puzzle of Life

For everyone who's been knocked down

Born into a world

consumed by a puzzle

 

Born into a home

with similar edges, but 

Nothing you say,

Nothing you do,

Is ever sane

To the ones who

Bare the same name

 

Try and Try

To conform

Try and Try

To transform

Try and Try

To no avail

 

Not a ray of light

Nor a ounce of hope

Has ever shone upon your everlasting night

 

Defeated,

You bow to us

Broken,

You bow to them

 

What else is there, for you to do?

 

Chained with cruel words

You’re dragged through the desolate rain

Stomped by damaging herds

You’re doused in chronic pain

 

Motivation flew away

Determination never stayed

Depression is all that remains

 

It’ll change

They say

Tomorrow’s better

They say

 

Still it remains

That this day

And the one before

You were shoved into the far reaches of the universe.

 

A blood boiling fury leaves you,

Screaming,

Thrashing,

Cursing,

Your very creation.

 

In the midst of this cry

You notice that,

One lone star

Brightens the night sky

It transcends the dark

And facilitates the arrival

Of its infinite followers

 

You fall to your knees

Drained of all rage

Nothing left but ethereal knowledge

 

Beat, Beat

A strange feeling

Beat, Beat

I accept Me

Beat, Beat

I love Me

Beat, Beat

I am Free

 

You’ve found your sight

There it is,

Your sacred place

In this puzzle of life

 

Your connection is made,

You’re embraced without cause,

And loved without reason
