Low Threshold

The storm is passing,

How will I survive amidst all that has happened ? Held me captive,

victim of my pride at times I’m all reaction,

the slow burn is waiting for the magic,

caught lacking principles before the personalities like don’t you see yourself who you after?

It's all love but I don’t hate when I’m alone,

I got my heart to cast in plaster body chiseled out the stone,

roam, where you go and where you gone,

if you’ve told a little lie then you know how it feel to rob,

towered over flaws, like a dark cloud,

heart pounding sending ripples through the bog,

all along, it was me I couldn’t leave without rewriting the wrongs,

I will breathe life in these songs because I’m allowed to pause,

Peace allowed until serenity exists,

when I’m colliding with what is,

if it wasn’t me then it was was god who saw me quit,

She pulled me out the water like my mama saw a gift,

my sister found god that was my papa dying wish,

Why does life feel like a hug, and death is just a kiss?

Don’t you drift away from us, and fall in the abyss,

Its nothing short of luck, I’ll receive what you transmit,

Cancerous antics to lead me to the crypt,

Led me through the crypt,

Spirit…

Please believe me this a treaty I done signed it,

I’m reminded of the times that ain’t aligned with us,

The bean stalk I’m climbing up,

We reaching outwards tryna grab what we can find in us, Whole time…

You decide your own, you can make your own way, pessimism won’t stay,

It ain’t always candles and cakes,

One foot in the front the other is the right pace,

Wrong place, right time at least that what the plight say,

Type shit, navy just a vessel couldn’t write this, his likeness settled in the light,

Where the hype is, money ain’t make him, but the dollar is a muthafucker,

my tax dollar killing children and they mothers…

fathers, aunties, uncles, cousins, all that,

I guess its safe to say the bottom is the place to fall at,

I call that grace… make haste, and make most of what you call a safe place
