Reality strikes
And your dreams turnout better than you’ve imagined
The things you feared turn grey
And the things you loved are planted
Suddenly you see
All you need is to dream and to let it be
Reality strikes
And your dreams turnout better than you’ve imagined
The things you feared turn grey
And the things you loved are planted
Suddenly you see
All you need is to dream and to let it be
The difference between you and me
Boils down to geography
I was born somewhere far beyond your sea
And so you see me differently
…
The difference between a citizen and a refugee
Is just
Another disaster of this world I see
Miles define who we are and who we can be
…
If you weren’t born where you were
Who would you be?
Our dreams were so big
They thought us fools
Our path was so new
For their old tools
Yet we pave a foot after another
And we create new dreams for others
To follow
For they think their dreams are too big to come true
Reality v.s. Dream
One you dared one you did not
Somehow
You forgot how to fly
You believed it was a childish lie
And you buried your wings apart from your heart
Feet bare
Shoes weighted by mud
The wild dogs of my neighborhood escorting me home
It was a day like no other
Rain in the desert
Streets Flooded
Is this what we all prayed for?
A bare foot on a snow day
I want to feel this life I was given
Rain washing me away
I don’t run
I stand still as I see it coming
I see them run
Rushing to avoid life
Hurrying to graves too expensive to buy
Burn me!
When did digging in dirt become a luxury?
Or carry me into the ocean
Set me free!
I will remember rain drops on my face
Cold snow days
Earth I touched — Earth that touched me
Please friends
Slow your journey
And don’t be in a rush to hurry

I see you in the light and I wonder what you are
A creature that must have been created in a land much too far
I whisper as I pass you but my words are too foreign to hear
Or did you hear me but just wished for me to disappear?
She found it odd
That she could not fly
They told her she couldn’t
But she didn’t understand why
So she jumped from the highest building she could find
She knew that her wings would never leave her behind

I’ve searched for her
Time and time again
She chooses to hide
Underneath my skin
…
Eyes opened so wide
Searching for what’s inside
Where have you gone
Little child?
