Soul Rising

Rising must be taken in stride
   When too high we drown
   Over the crown
   Deadly water renown
Then it begins to seep inside

What can we do to fight the current?
   Strength to swim
   Too little to win
   Prospects look grim
Make sure energies are well spent

Must rise with the flow
   Don’t fight the mass
   Let water pass
   No matter how fast
This is how to beat undertow

To fight the swift
A losing fit

Must swim with the tide
Just along for the ride

You wanted the river
In fear do not shiver

Always increasing speed
   Careful with this
   A dangerous dish
   But many’s wish
Hard to change direction when in need

The faster the current the harder’s escape
   Direction is spoiled
   When in turmoil
   Our modern world
Maybe we should slow back down the rate

Change for the better is good in its turn
   How do we steer
   To change not in fear
   Next grows ever near
Hopefully it will not see the world burn

Fire and water at odds elements
Get them along to the next inclement

Wildfire burning out of control
Wild current swirling abyssal

Lets start to steer this event
First we must get over our old bent

The new world order has drowned some already
   Those that choose ignorance
   Have no chance for a stance
   In the coming dance
They are nowhere near ready

But some way out in front
   Individual leads
   Planting new seeds
   Leading with pleads
They are will the take sharp change brunt

They go with the rising tide
   They stay buoyant
   With optimism lent
   And go with the current
These are on history’s side

Some old ways will surely burn
They have had their turn

Let the current told hold of history
And go where we can all be free

Let go of control
And liberate soul
