bein',
barely twenty I was cast down at the edge of my own abyss,
hangin'
on,
just
runnin' its gauntlet ev'ryday, swimmin' in the dreg
of
its
ebb
smothered by the waves of its tide
kickin' an' growlin'at the immobillity
that's
stoppin'
you
is
there still one thing drivin' you on
the
drive
of
'survival'
your conquest over mind an' time, the faillure of a hammered
body
guarantees, are none or just lost in time
one
word
keeps
comin' to mind
"Survival '
somethin' I never heard of or did
I
but
it's all you have, nothin' more, nothin' less, with time pressin' on
and
where
recovery is a withered leaf hangin' in the wind
recovery is a withered leaf hangin' in the wind
with
that thought in mind, its creation is yours to have
the
future
a
vision in time, a next day its only purpose
and
your
'Survival '
always, a case of dyin' cryin' out for you ev'ryday
your
next
day
a
God sent gift never tried
days
years
decades
cling like a cloak all the way
a
ghost of the past, livin' your yesterday
but
it's
all you have an' ever got
I
hear
a
tune
driftin' in on the wind
it's
River deep mountain high
thinkin', is this for real, is this meant for me
my
life
a
collection of notes in a once time hit
I
must have known what I did, without ever knowin' what I did
it
was my salvation
what did I miss a lot, yet now not of the importance
I
got
a
second chance, where time is of the essence, bein' it all I've left
so
I
outlive my days one at a time, enjoy, 'till time overtakes me once again
and
grants
me
my
peace of mind
