Moon Rise

Yea, It's building up right?
Let it out
Get it off of your chest
What better way than shout?!
Huff & puff & rock the house
& send cracks from the concrete up to the clouds
Now, break it down
Cause really it's simple
Blast past the past & unmask the riddles
Take tools & fiddle & keep the rules minimal
We're running in a circle
The force is centrifugal
Here we go
Or at the very least, here we are
It's good enough for me
No need to pick apart
Sustain hope
If it ain't broke
Carry on
The same jokes won't amaze folks
Move along
But don't quit, surmount & rise past it
If you've got the skills there's no need to ass kiss
I've had this on my mind for years
About time that I dive in to conquer fear
So come on

Take everything you hate & ball it up
But don't throw it away like you've had enough
Let it live a little while longer
& remind you why you should grow stronger
Keep friends close & enemies closer
& keep a look out for what they could show you
Want what you need & use what you have
It all overlaps - the good & the bad

I'm dead tired but I'm in a position to
Wake up
Feel my mind racing, wanna be spittin to
Say what?
Hold so much hate, I fiend love
Dead broke, now it's really time to save up
C'mon
What's the purpose of lurking through these alternatives?
Working so another person can learn to live
But why?
I'm searching for someone who knows
But really, I'm just waiting
I need a new approach
I just wish I could let go
But my hand's clutched tight
Holding on strong like I'm fighting for my life
Something isn't right
In between the love & spite
That motive that is frozen
You can hold it if you like
So close but not quite
What's the move?
I trust you enough to tell you
I don't know the truth
You got something to lose?
You got something to prove?
You got something you love?
You don't want to be abused?
Tell me, what am I to do?
I don't have the answers
Doubt multiplies in my mind like cancer
You could take a chance
Or you could play it safe
Decide with desire
Not what you could tolerate
I would call it hate
Before I call it love
Call it what you want
It does what it does
Im'a be what I am
Trudge till I can't stand
If it makes me a man
It's part of the plan
So try to understand

Take everything you hate & ball it up
But don't throw it away like you've had enough
Let it live a little while longer
& remind you why you should grow stronger
Keep friends close & enemies closer
& keep a look out for what they could show you
Want what you need & use what you have
It all overlaps - the good & the bad
