Slowly now we wake from slumber,
Starting soon an endless summer,
Hate and rudeness in the past,
Now is when this challenge tasked,
All the things we've called upon,
Wishing forward, swept along,
No more current to define,
For this flight must set its line,
All of what the years have taught us,
Building to where life has brougth us,
Ride a dream like passing waves,
Make it known that challenge saves,
Whether weather, flood or foul,
This whimper has now turned to growl,
Some more years of harsh collision,
Still can't choose my own decision,
I will work with what I can,
Show the demons in the man,
Codependent then no more,
I shall reach another shore

My only request is that you listen near
I must actually never make a settlement here
My goal is simple yet such a dream
But life will hold nothing if kept in this stream
I know you hold conference and state your own lies
Thinking you'll handle it while I slowly die
These things you think metaphors, while many are
Why would one as such be placed as a bar
Only because you cannot see mistakes
Does not give permission for more you should make

2010, I'm laughing at you
You're not that long onward for us to see through
2005 still just about there
but now we've got the year 20 past the millenium
So much longer than anyone wants to admit
We're all getting older and it's about time to start it
Gotta wait a while to begin my own life
For there seems to be something that's wrong
People with power and unknown intentions
Who don't really listen to reason
It's clear they have something in mind
To shackle because they can... even in the holiday season
I know what's in store and I know what I'm working on
I know it's been so long in progress
But if it's in this decrepit place, this stale world around me
I would rather let go of their success
I'm not letting go and I'm not backing out
I'm reaching for something greater
Something I actually know of a life
For this life has an unknown creator
