I brave the walk, and when I come out the other side, it’s a beautiful giant open field. The “island” isn’t that big, and I can see the other edge of it from where I’m standing at the end of the tree line on the opposite side. From side to side, I look, and it’s just me and nature. The only appropriate response I can come up with is to just start dancing in the field. This is a celebration. Even if this isn’t the magic answer, I’m going to embrace this moment for what it is.

Ultimately, the problems may not be gone, but now I have a better understanding of how to process and step beyond them. And, I know I didn’t achieve this on my own, so this is also dedicated to those who helped me get to this point.

I’m walking a bit of a fine line in the tone of this song. It’s celebratory, but also I’m still analyzing…a reflection of how my mind is almost always thinking, and very hard for me to shut off in most cases. The lyrics largely focus on me expressing my dedication to focus on self-care, as well as, let go of negative energy and feelings. I also touch on the importance of others in my life, including the power of friendship. But, also how my being “different” sometimes causes confusions and difficulties in those situations.

It comes to a close making the suggestion that even if these are the last days, I’m gonna enjoy life until that time comes. This one was fun to make.

LYRICS:

I’m taking step by step and stride by stride
With all I love as my only guide (4Xs)

I try to focus on proper breathing
Total control of air flow that each air duct’s receiving
Although it’s pleasing, that’s not reason
It’s discipline to calm the savage beast when I’m grieving
I’m not leaving this planet without seizing
Every opportunity given to me, I made that vow recent
And even those who oppose my achievements
You think we’re at odds, hmph, not even
I’m achieving my inner balance
I’ve been about it, some times I doubt it
Lose my place, get re-routed
But every step is a step forward
Even the steps back, and the times that I was stepped over
Thanks for love in my life, it gave my life meaning
Thanks for feeling’s of bliss when I was not dreaming
As it turns out, I often prefer friendship
To be the songbird to my nerve endings
And that could probably use an explanation
But only chosen few are privy to that information
This is an invocation, but that’s a word with different meanings
And MOST apply in this situation
Is which you choose a closer view of me or you?
Who knows? Every case is a new mutation
I knew my patience would pay off with perfect pacing
Instead of dream chasing, I was soul saving
It just so happens that one influenced the other
I’m never losing another moment to insecurities
That’s my priority, not looking for perfectly
A lil bit of happiness that’s perfect for me
And ain't selling myself short, I’m realistic
Sometimes I think my chance came, but I missed it
As far as second chances, and happenstances
Is this the eye of destiny or the mouth of madness?
I suppose it’s a thin line, a matter of enzymes
Creating theme songs for the end times (3Xs)
