Soul

July 28, 2015 by Jim Desiderati

I tried whiskey, LSD
shootin ludes and smokin tea
never liked reality
it made me look at what I’d see

found it fun to tell you lies
try and hide from truthful eyes
be the master of disguise
king of phony alibis

so I sit all in control
of nothing but an empty soul
buried deep within a hole
filled with hate and empty goals

help me now to do my best
to change the cold heart in my chest
they say love will do the rest
if your willing to be blessed

no religion to understand
no insistent high command
no inhuman like demands
just a silent helping hand

I only hope to rise above
this endless war of push and shove
free to fly, free as a dove
Source Of Unconditioned Love
