Array ( [sid] => 99744 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => My Song [time] => 2005-06-30 20:44:14 [hometext] => This is called 'My Song' cause it's very personal. [bodytext] => Fighting away temptation
Elevation
Discipline myself, and I’m home free
Hoping to find a way to be me
Drug through the mud, hung to dry
It’s in the contents everyday I try

Broken, I’m blind inside
For every time I’ve died
Bleeding whispers bleed through
Still alone, thinking of you
Thinking of your memory
Hoping one day it doesn’t become a dream
And forever lay inside of me

With these worldly objects following behind
In this world it’s not hard for a man to lose his mind
I know this sounds kind of dark
But all of this is coming from the heart
Some may not understand what I’m saying
I don’t care, just as long as the track is playing
Wrote into a song, we’ll live eternal
Cause what we write won’t remain internal

Note this, not all rhymes will be understood
But comprehend, is something you could
Try to read this for once, try and understand what I’m saying
Cause this pain is what I’m paying
People from all around seem to like my songs
It’s either that or everyone’s playing along
Personally, after a while I hate them
Cause after a while they get old and dim
And I don’t have the same beliefs as you
Sorry, it’s just something I’m not into
I’ve been forced year after year to listen
To just sit down, pay attention, and listen

Flowers, representing peace, love, and tranquility
Sometimes we need to stop and enjoy life’s beauty
Personally, I don’t want to fit in the crowd
I don’t want to be like everyone, and be loud
I’m just proud to be what I am, a scrubby nerd with the qualities of a hippie
No one really likes me, who cares, come on and hit me
I don’t believe in violence, but don’t push me over the edge
Cause right now, I’m already looking at the ledge
This is where mankind has pushed me
Broken and blind, this is all I’ll ever be

Some may not like my songs, or like my lyrics, or like my rhymes
Just know I’m not trying to keep up with the stupid times
The world is too corrupt now
I just wish I could clean this place up with one plow
No need to try and curse me now
I’ve already gone too far
The government doesn’t like me so far
I know, cause I’m against them [comments] => 1 [counter] => 239 [topic] => 21 [informant] => Bones [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )
My Song

"Yet men scheme for all their worth
fighting our campaign for earth
destroy our fear of those who kill
you know their threats we know your will"

Quote from "Prayer for boldness" from the play "Upside Down" based on Psalm 8:1

I was angry at the world at one time too and sometimes i must stop myself from being angry. Anger adds to the worlds grief and horror. We need a better more constructive emotion to motivate us to action.
