Okay... so here's consciousness. God. your soul... what ever you want to call it.
It's like this pool of energy that permeates throughout all existence.
I sort of imagine it as what the universe might of looked like before the Big Bang.
So basically, that pool of energy has all these lives extending from it. There's some living over here, some living over there...
all spread out throughout life...
but they're all tied to this leash that connects them back to God.
It expresses itself in an infinite number of ways.
Some people split the definition of this force up, and label one side of it as evil and the other side of it as good...
one side as heavan and the other side as hell...
one side: fear. the other side: Love...
But it's all one thing channeling and balancing itself.
It's all one consciousness observing itself through different conduits.
In other words, your body is just the spaceship for this energy to exist in the physical realm.
You can feel the positive side of this everyday if you try.
You can feel it through connection, because connecting with itself is how it grows.
And this is the point.........
The point is to connect. The point is to grow positively.
Your body is just a cocoon for your soul to develop.
And when you die,
You will connect back with this energy in its purest form, and you will become what I am talking about. Collectively adding to it.
And you will see that there was never any reason to worry, because you were always safe. It was only your body that was worrying.
You may think of yourself as your body. But your body is just a glove.
And you are really the hand that is inside it.
We all are.
We are all each other.
And our hands are constantly spilling what we learn back through our leashes into that pool of energy, which I have just finished describing.
So please... While you're here... try your best to not piss in the pool.

accost our leaders' leaders
got the ladder jump the gates,
it's revolution's hour
fuck the demon's running hate,
it's time to light a fire
grab your twigs before it's late
pitchfork the fucking liars
burn their riches at the stake.
black tie uniform
no expression is the norm,
white collared in a cage
key's illegal no gateway,
remain at peace is all they say
as things remain the same old same,
years of protests - nothing's changed
life for you is prearranged.

humor helps every day
manufactured drama from feelings they say
for existence is nothing but nothing
you can die at any moment
end it all in a click
like a lock to a pick
what the fuck happened to this?
despite being last in line
he kept on keeping the find
the key keeper is blind
and losses are fine...
except when they involve the mind

many minds
many many many minds
feel the collared ride
always in inside
choking at my lobes
try to paint some coats
tiny friends in strobes
feeling at my lobes
losing control
coming out my soul
never had a vote
turning like a yo yo
up and downing lows
dance for a loan
borrowed out of hype
underpaid and swiped
over drafted life
oh who am I? oh who am I?
just a millennial
selfish and a dolt
but I feel the flow
yeah I feel the flow
right along the soul
ride along my soul
you know how it goes
yeah you know how it goes
I don't know why
I sing at night
imagine light reengaging left to right
I don't know why
I'm old inside
always coming from a high
coming from a high
maybe it's not me
maybe fantasy was right
you are I
and I am you
and you are I
and everything is life
yeah we are you
yeah we are you
and everything is life
everything is life
I am everything
you are everything
let's change the world where...

it's such a clean feeling
out of life's eyes
seeing
no order in the grass
making meaning through smudged glass
little diddies playing back
this and that fall flat as
this lesser listener tries to sing long after the restless fire simmers.
distracting flickers, peripheral lives
dealing early 20s, just sigh -
I keep try I keep trying
at that mana magna masterpiece
but damn, man, it sounds like gibberish to everyone but me.
downing drymamine
ima dye it clean
in my airplane mode
smoking ozones,
and speaking
you remember speaking?
feeling
do you feel that?
that universal ride
relating on dark side
finding my pink lies
hating it all sometimes then realize,
I can do life so long as there's a few red skies...
and then that scatter
which of these matter?
agendas or flow?
to lead or follow?
I don't know but
you have to feel that -
that unspoken connection
those contradictory life lessons:
live in the moment, have a plan
it's all in the now, but the future demands -
I'm pulled there
but but
should I build here?...
I don't know, tho
I often find,
where I'm standing is where I should be,
for now at least.
then follow what's forward,
and remember to breathe.
