...work

about to punch the clock on my cream
seems I must wait another day to punch the clock on my dream
seems the cream designed to keep my eyes off the dream
add to that the things we want and need you can't escape the gleam
so its time to reevaluate all mode of pursuit
how much we sacrifice in process to get to the loot
misunderstood my dedication cause I only own one suit
thought myself apart from it and while that thought is cute
im clear at this point that I've bought in as much most
between my raise and my bonus there's not too much to boast
plus I need butter and jam to accompany my toast
this morn reality hit me, would you like a dose?
if you're not living for yourself then you're wasting your time
and if in your train of thought you revolve around a dime
chances are you're missing you like corona absent of lime
getting in touch with your goals can feel quite sublime
that's why im picking up may camera, take it everywhere I go
grab my pen and pad just in case I need to flow
cause life's been differed too long, think its time for a reprise
bring that far off thing into focus its the apple of my eyes

morning


Early
so very early in the morning
love crept into my bed
just as the sun peeked over the worlds edge
with those rays
she shined through my window
entered my eyes, though shut
and whispered promises
of the glory ahead
waking from a sleep that
allowed me to control my world
into a morning that
was anything but mines to control
the opportunities held in this
new morning
made me smile
because like my dream
the day
my future
is what i make it
