"My life at a moment"

I awake to see a new day
How i feel as i arose shall the feeling stay
Sometimes the mood i am is still
wondering in the mist of the full moon having the power of my will
to carry on the days work

I grow hungry as the days come to a end
the thirst as the taste of sweat hitting my face away to defend
the strength i have to not pass out
Listening to the last words mentioning all about

what is in-store for me tomorrow

Another night tossing and turning from the dream i encountered
My life ten years from now that appeared
is this a wake up call or is it my time
i have to choose my own destiny before i have began this rhyme
treating me like i am some dork

I believe in the creator and my life and the dearest of heart
the ones that came before me and ones that were apart
I took on this journey just to see but before i did i was awaking by the alarm
I opened my eyes once more and fell from my bed with a slight of a arm
Please no pain and giving much sorrow

I washed my face and hands and ate the most important meal of the day
Then off i go to the last blue lagoon away
Just to find out I'm one man short
More work and much pain wishing i could abort
Telling my self i should find something i love

I went to the office and Told my boss to take this job and stick it up a fire hose
I knew i could find something better i suppose
So on the search a man came beside me and told me I'm looking for a few good men
To go to the navy thinking what world was he in
I took my chances two long years

Then i went to sleep once more in a dream someone told me let the journey begin
I then thought school was the way nothing much back when
I studied the books and cram for test no more in the mud
talking to friends and being with my best bud
No longer someone else looking after and thinking of

It came the promise land and works i could define
No more nightmares and struggles they were all behind
All i got left is to be happy love the moment
remember how it started and what it meant
and teach it to all my pears
