No One Wants Turbulence
Rexter McCain 2005 (Cavite)
No one wants turbulence, I can see
I don't want any virulence implied
In this world, there's still a chance to be free
Laughing and crying, emotions set free
In life's absence, tears have oft been cried
No one wants turbulence, I can see
Breaking silence, a longing, hear my plea
Evicting pain, bidding it to subside
In this world, there's still a chance to be free
Drifting personalities, let them be
Reducing shyness, casting it aside
No one wants turbulence, I can see
With each passing day, embrace the decree
Even in sighs, hope won't be denied
In this world, there's still a chance to be free
No one wants turbulence, I can see
