This road has come to yet another dead end

Wondering should I turn back or just play dead

I’ve decided to take flight, must transcend instead

My strength and will both put through a rigorous test

In which I loved, laughed, gained, lost, healed and bled

And turning my soul as fierce as my beard is Red

To keep my third eye open, I no longer want the meds

Leaving me impervious to slander, what he or she says

I took the time I needed to in order to learn who I am

I’m grateful for those who picked up where I slacked

And who lifted me up, instead of turning their backs

It’s the expectation itself, not I, that makes you mad

In reality, everyone must realize, no one owes us jack

I could have left anytime, afraid I’d turn your soul black

Or get so high, I would never see another landing pad

I may waiver, but perseverance is not a trait I have lacked

Nothing’s forever, many friends turned ancient artifacts

I am St. Nicholas however, of course I always have presence

In your soul, I have planted seeds of valuable life lessons

If you nurture them, they will continue to grow so impressive

All loss deserves grief but they also should bring appreciation

It could be a shorter ride than I thought, I'm back on track again

My dream, I’d change the world even if it was just as One Man

No desire for the fame or my name on some gold plaque

For the greater good, a concept we no longer seem to understand

I’m spreading the Word, rewritten as if it was His own right hand

God has given me the gift as a tool to help share Words unspoken

I refuse to watch time go by in a circle, it's just a waste of two hands

I'd rather be able to see clearly, perhaps looking through an hourglass

Because before too long, it will drop the last grain of sand

Forever dreaming, because a dream untouched is just that

There’s no better time than now, I’m going to make it a fact
