All the Stories that I can recall
Are all about the hero who falls
Fables of how to lose will to fight
Tales of how to miss the prize
That is out of reach but always in sight
I want to author a new spiritual
Something that is aside from the usual
With words that fill souls with joy and honor
A narrative where the hero wins when tested in fire
I hope that this story starts a crazy
The kind of psalm that knocks people out of a daze
One that makes everyone realize
You can't keep spinning and living in lies
My dream's to start the second wave of enlightenment
An era where art and jazz are the new fifth element
And it starts right now and here
I'm in the drivers seat and it's my turn to steer
