Walls
Oh the walls that we put up,
So high the world can see
The day we finally break them down
We’ll find humanity.
In this world of walls contain
My body physically,
But in my body dwells my soul
Which will forever remain free.
Soar beyond that ball and chain,
Glimpse the mountains in their glory,
We are in God’s cosmic hand
There’s no need for fear or worry.
Who says we are too far gone?
Who dares make this assessment?
When God sees us He says, “through me”
You are products of perfection.
I look around and all I see
Is ink on human beings.
Beneath it all I’m pleased to find
My reasons for believing.
With blood in vein and ink in pen
Inscribe your heart’s expression.
Look inside and you might find
We’ve all lived in a prison.
Not you nor I possess this side nor race, creed, or religion; why can’t we live in love
The key to our existence.
Read the story of my life
It’s rife with raw detail
Those that wish to see me fail
Will watch in shock as I prevail
I’ll climb as high as I can go
And push with all my strength.
Within me God will do the rest
To Him I’ll sing this song of thank
The Golden Key
The Golden key to all of life
Resides inside the mind
It frees you from those wretched thoughts
And helps the weary to unwind.
It’s sweeter that the finest wine,
Has more rewards in it than whiskey,
To be content, it sure sounds great
It’s obviously so tempting.
Where to start? How does it end?
Questions with no solid answer.
What I can, sir, is say this
A peace inside will replace cancer.
Whether it be of the mind
Or whether it be sickness,
The Golden Key in time will fix this;
This I promise as a witness.
More than just a witness though,
I am a true believer.
For God has saved me from the slaughter
Of the mental meat cleaver.
The grinder of the mind can turn
A man to a disease,
But the golden key can fix this too,
Fix it up with ease.
Watch me as I walk out now
And brave the great unknown,
The Golden key inside my mind
It lives with God upon the throne
I’ll carry on this prison term
And feel as free as eagles do
The Golden Key will see me through
Until my freedom rings as true.
