Like Water

I wont let the weight pull me down, 

When I swim now.

How do I get down

Shaking like I am

S**t! How to make things 

Balance in a stiff breeze

Tip, I tease my needs

Overwater all my bulbs and seeds.

Now I'm knee deep, mucky

In the mud, in the garden

That I cant till again

'Till I step out let it harden.

In the mean time I'll be over here

Standing on my tippy toes

Feeling like a big man, 

Looking like a dick, so

Guess I'll strike a pose, 

Tip my hat, like this

Now trying to be cool

To be hot

Not doing s**t.

Sometimes my quest to be everything 

Can throw me off balance 

Trying to put on creativity, 

Charisma and talent.

Making more, much more

Mind the meddling modernity

Its all what for

Only making things unsure to me

So I'll take a step back

Look around, try to be like water.

Soak into the ground

Drip and drowned

Soaker, Self starter!

Hey!

Let go let me down, 

Let me soak into the reservoir

And pump me round town

To the lips of all your wives and daughters

Let me be the liquid 

That'll quench parched palates

Let me move them all to tears

With soliloquies and ballads

Let me look for validation

In the spot below your belly button

I'll tell you and convince myself

That everything I feel is nothing.

Now I got a new track

To put my train of thought upon

To chug across the trestle 

To the tunnel, now its almost gone

It went like this though, 

Brutishly and slowly.

If I don't know myself

How do other people claim to know me?

I try to chisel all the wisdom

And the words that I find

Into the doors to all the spaces

And the places in my mind.

You can enter if you wanna

threw the one marked 'Gnothi Seauton'

Just watch that you don't trip 

Because I forgot to leave a light on.

And hey, you've never caught me running

Though I've run away before.

Because there's some things I'm afraid of

And commitment makes me Bored.

So it I tell you that I'll be right back, 

And never come back home

Then you'll know then, that you didn't know

Some things you should have known.
