As we fall from our grasp, we deserve to know why
And if clear, we will never be a victim of the cry
* * *
As people approved my history’s growth
My success was not more than the steady approach
The creation, the process gave me the rise
And the meaning from that was directly mine
The applause from the fans gave nothing but pleasure
And pleasure lasts only till the coming endeavor
–
As the stars in my eyes slowly drifted away
My heart sank down low for the next few days
A habit that goes by the name of a “cage”
Came swift through my body as it poisoned my brain
I studied the reason and insistent return
And found the transition was causing the burn
–
The value that came from my purpose and project
Was vanished and flooded by success of the object
But what was so real, was the focus and care
That bled through the art of the story so bare
I fell deep in love with this life and my goal
And when I succeeded, I lost my own mold
* * *
As we fall from our grasp, we deserve to know why
And if clear, we will never be a victim of the cry
–
So continue to search, and to find what is real
What brings you to love and dares you to feel
