Shadow Man - Intellectual

Shadow man; write rhymes in the dark

Away from the crowds in the bar

I listen to the beat from afar

Travel through the night till it hits and ignites with a spark

The words come pouring and a new cycle starts

Born a new story, born a new star

Born a new path to be walked with the heart

Go through life standing firm

Those who think they right dealing strife never learn

Everything we write is devised to be burned

I test my will and might throwing words to the urn

Words turn to ash, ash turn to dust

Everything we learn we'll unlearn as a must

Before the final turn in the wheel must be thrust

The dust must blow

Thus we'll begin again, to sin again

To mistrust what we'll win again

Until a gust of wing brings the scent of our stink again;

Let us know

Everything she gives we have taken

We should listen to the will of the maker

Remember we were born...

From the center all things come and become

When they come undone

They'll return to the one

Recur to the sum

From which none will be shun

Thy will be done, crawl, walk or run

Cry overcome, Pray to be stunned

Pry the become

Find in all sound the surround mighty hum

Go through life standing firm

Everything we write is alright to be burned

Before the last fight we'll ignite the last urn;

Set the last fire in the night to burn bright

In the pyre that will light the new turn

Let the smoke rise to the sky as we churn

Let us leave what we have to be burned

Let us turn around head bound to the profound

Let us come around finally bow to the ground

Hear the sound of our peace come down

Hear the chaos cease

With due defeat hear the chaos leave (us)

To the heat of a new sunny day

Again we'll be children

Who will run and will play with no worries

We will gleam clean and we will flourish

We will stream a new stream

With new courage to the sea

Of the new found dream we will nourish
