[Verse 1]

I'm charging all this energy

To make the jump hyperspace

It's all a distant memory

Status numb to database

Feelings lost and feelings found

At least I don't feel out of place

I use the sounds to surround around my substance just in case

I leave the ground in spirit

According to some plans I made

Intrusive thought, I fear it may overcome my force someday

Until I force it down into the depths I make

Ensuring that I save my life

The skies always seemed so inviting


[Verse 2]

This new day becomes a treasure held

But briefly like the sands of time

And only as briefly told by a human clock made by a human mind

Zoom into the seconds, take view of the essence

We only exist in the present

Expressing pleasure though the self is the protagonist in agony

Which explains reactions with fists

So I'm sad to see us disagree on petty, unfulfilling fits of friction

Fishing for official recognition

I'm wishing that these systems set by citizens weren't built on fiction


[Verse 3]

So listen

Not to me, but those whose lives you touch

You're not meant to judge, you weren't meant to fly

And I dreamt of death too much

To not try to change some circumstances

Take chances to advance the masses through this aftermath

Be patient as we trudge

Be gracious you have blood that keeps you coursing, emanating love

Elevate above the obstacles scattered in your path

Don't forget that some of which were removed by emissaries now in cemetery soil

Buried in the past


[Verse 4]

And definitely don't forget that some have more hurdles to overcome than you

And trying harder they need a helping hand for these trials they may face that you didn't have to breakthrough

By some virtue of your birth

Neither burden nor a curse

Your privilege shows in all the things you do

So watch your step and watch your words

You might hurt those who have it worse

So immerse yourself in the intensity that is this mess of life

And know the only thing that keeps us grounded is our propensity for flight


[Verse 5]

So I'm charging all this energy

Before I make the jump to hyperspace

And if you isolate my afterburners

I won't escape this earthly fate

This song I wrote in a single day

But I was built to by the environment my universe creates

Unduplicatable, yet relatable, in the simplest of ways

When I look in the mirror, will I see my own face?

When I look in the mirror, will I see my own face?
