FREEDOM (audio)

http://youtu.be/TlnsCFMx-z8

If you were brought in for questioning

and many things were before you

would you be able to identify

and recognize

freedom

or look yourself in the mirror

to see it

living in you?

Living and breathing out

all of you

before you were consumed

by a non-existing

box

as a looking glass to gaze through,

use as a format,

example,

blueprint

of the stamp and label

placed upon

many

too few to count

who have yet to identify

freedom

therefore given and believing

something false

to know

and trust

as their truth

So

when we say

FREEDOM

oh so often we use it

as a tool to stand

and declare

but some of us

don’t even know

its name,

the characteristics,

its personality,

the uniqueness of its fame

I’d rather tell you

You are free

than ignore the truth

of you being bound

by reality

not yours

but the one

re-created

told to you

and delivered as the accurate genuine inner makings of you

yet to be realized

because it is disguised

as your ________<<< “truth…”

when you look in the mirror

let’s all finish the line

 ______________ <<< “Do you really know you????”

Not a personal attack

but for me to even write,

Right this

I have to look within

day in

day out

and humbly admit…

do I really know freedom,

and do I live like it knows my name

Bigger than any word

you could ever pronounce

A gift we’re all given

but many of us refuse to live it

Afraid we will miss out

On this movement

that movement

Top Twitter trend

and the number of everybody talking about this

It’s cool,

I’ll give you a minute

it is a constant self-reality check

If an interviewer asked

“Is it a fight to be you,

the real you?“

Would you really say,

“YES”

Given the moment

to be introduced to

Freedom,

the stress and pressure

that you were actually built

to push through and progress

No faking the funk,

taking time to open up

and no longer masking

The privilege,

the true

and accurate

genuine

inner makings

of the

FREEDOM

to be

YOU

go wherever that may lead

Fight to consider

only your designed beautiful truth

Leaving behind

all the re-this and re-that

…that just really isn’t

REAL

But a prison with an indefinite sentence.

Take

Make

Time

To reflect

Realize

Recognize

That

FREEDOM

Knows You

And requests that

You know It!

If you were brought in for questioning

and many things were before you

would you be able to identify

and recognize

freedom

or look yourself in the mirror

to see it

living in you?

Hello You! Yes, YOU…

We meet every morning

like it’s the 1st time

forgetting that I was

there

as your personal commentator

at your

best and worst times

from your brightest smile

to the forced moment

when you faced me

admitting

you were hurt

tears filled your eyes

bloodshot red

cold rag to the face

then looked at me

to confirm if others could tell

I was there

with nothing to say

but everything

of your perspective

Mimicking whatever

precious emotions desired

Not your definition

but this time I bet your wondering

what voice is this you’re hearing?

not an imitating

self-degrading

voice that only follows

A voice that has decided to

replace follow

with lead

Before you stop me

to say

 I don’t know

what I’m talking about...

I’ve had enough of you

Looking at me

And not seeing what I see

Don’t tell me your lie

Before I tell you my truth

Which happens to be yours

One of purpose

promise

passion

determination

humility

and beauty

That whatever is for you

is for you

And will be found

You think because I look like you

I am your reflective truth

Well I’m not

I am not a reflection

You have distorted me

into an ever-growing scrapbook

of your moments on a rollercoaster

So let me tell you what I am

I am a sign that

YOU Are Still Here

While many wish their

Loved ones could make the

Same sign re-appear

I am a reminder

of the truth

that there is a rainbow

after rain

and as long as

we can see each other

Your focus shall

know and remain

far, far, far, FAR

away

from

The peddling of many hustles

in a struggle

that surely has no gain

integrity

dignity

only a route where

Your name will be known

But YOU won’t recognize your name

THEN… 

 we’ll have this same discussion

AND...

You would never believe me

So I am serving you

notice

Right NOW

I will no longer be your

"Magic Mirror on The Wall"

That’s in a movie

Your purpose goes beyond

The writings

directing

of a man-made script

Not fit 

for the already written script

of your dreams you were

Meant to live

You’ve

Picked it up

Put it down

Imagined

read it

forgot that it was around

Now pick it up again

to see

what I attempt

to declare and define

every morning when we

meet like it’s the 1st time

the beauty of being YOU

which no one but YOU

can experience

perspective of design

with a sign for every reason

why your purpose is still

alive and well

So when you see me

I see you

I am not a reflection

I am the definition of your truth

Beyond aluminum

silver

And glass

No longer will you ask me to

mimic you

help rehearse things from the past

But allow me

 to remind YOU of who you are

A definition created with 

promise & truth!

Hello You! YES, YOU…
