Day 66 ? (I might have lost count along the way)
Here is a song I have been working on, every word is true.
See you on the other side
Arms outstretched wide
Going to work till the work is through
Lay my head down to die
Wear off the old skin
Work my hands anew
Can't un-see the things I've seen
Un-live the days I've lived
Cooking up coke on a bent spoon
Candle lights the room
As sweat beat down my brow
Hold the shakes that I can't shake
"If you don't shit you die"
Freebase set him free
The morphine telling lies
The cancer running wild
Biking uphill just to feel the burn
Look across the Bay
Then I said a prayer
Headed on back down
Leaning into the second turn
Ancient pave in ruin
In an instant life turned black
Then white then red
I knew my wounds would heal
His would finally kill
All the tears were cried
July and the fire was stoked
But his heart remained strong
His stubborn was long
A poke in the arm
A few drips in, he was gone
Love till the day you die
Dream till there is no more
Wait for the wings to grow
Be the eagle and soar
