Climb, highest, vertical, most noble sweat,
In moving let’s prepare to continue alive
Undenied.
We can solely comprehend when you get out your head.
This song of earth is lovely prose,
Humility’s admittance is in nature so
Commonly she rhymes in describing why,
What’s the need to learn all the things she’s been putting us through?
Catch this symptomatic, infectious message.
I’ll be leaving you soon to carry on this offspring light to moon.
Do you see her pliable uses?
We abuse her beauty, so her angular arms are still cradling me,
You may not notice the cosmos remain aligned in freedom,
And they’re there whether you admit to it and see them or not.
Can we carry all our meaning with us,
Given all this stress? Remember parts separated and breathe…
A disease has given way to an infinitely small complexity.
Could it be an intensity of people sure of one thing,
But still unaware of all the rest.
Sounds analagous to cool breeze if you release my now and break
The code I’ve got this population blanket,
But it’s funny cause I’m still cold.
I bleed from inside, can you help me get my children back
From your shallow conscious cause?
You’ve clichéd them as earth and time,
A burden I have not relaxed,
And you’ve not given me my pause.
So hasty a move, only listening to your lifetime of I love you’s
And vanishing you fake to see the very first thing
Looked through by your vanity’s search for you.
I think we must commune, substantiate this essence.
Cell blocks aren’t lessons, and our tenants cannot pay you in return, sir,
Until you teach them how to learn certainly I fulfill my how,
Have taken no prisoners and I’ve related,
But your science, high technology, refused the truth and told me
To become incorporated.
I must carry all our meaning with us, given all this stress.
Remember the parts separated, and mortality knows no less.
