The Hero system
Do you see the weeds off in the wind
wild with excitement of the dancing hymn
organic green carpet growing under my feet
in this blue watery world a journey it has become our seat
to have been born in the age of innocence would be such a treat
as a child spirit now born
to a system of hero's now thrown
a baby taking in senses of an animal world
the beast in toddlers have us trying to control
instincts as far as old,baptized with the demons soul
of a creature of choice endless doubt so cold
reflected in sibling rivalry the need to be bold
to be a hero of worth in the universe whole
even against my blood for evil has his word
earth is in need of superman indeed
for as close as we try to fly n rule the sky
we will fall for that one-way flight we had to buy
the need to want for in eden we'd be
soon comes the stage of leave
to return in knees of peace
good day for I have nothing left to say
