I Want Peace To Get And Live It



I want peace to get and live it.
I don't want to believe in myths.
Nowhere on this Earth to see exists.

I want more peace to live it.
Without deceivers to give that free.
I am not one to waste my time or mind,
Wishing to deserve what I need.

I want more of my love to share it.
And less corrupting of a harmony.
Around me to accept and expect to receive.
No! That ain't me.

I was not blessed with life to live,
On my knees to grieve!
I am not a fool to be ruled over.
No!
Nor a maverick claimed on me to be.
I am a comformer with others who love...
And it done to this,
Naturally.

I have a faith kept.
Yes.
And to hear it confessed.
Yes.
I don't imitate, fake or make up,
Lies told to tell knowing that's not me.

What is I want?
More peace.
And what is it I need?
More love and harmony to see.

What is I want?
Love to get and share it.
What is it I need?
Less unnecessary mess to receive and believe,
This is my life to breathe...
Everyday and night out,
Listening to deceivers....
Doing their best,
To plant in minds unconscious...
How to harvest misdeeds.

Everyday and night out.

Everyday and night out.

Everyday and night out.
People learning how to deceive.

Everyday and night out.

Everyday and night out.

Everyday and night out.
Few are left to trust and believe.
Few are left to trust and believe.
Few can be trusted,
To believe.
The life they live.
Without it doubted to believe.
Without it doubted to believe.
Without this doubted to believe,
If fictioned or not.
Without it doubted or believed!

And...
To know it done.
Expecting more of it to come.
Whether fictioned or not.
With a knowing this done.
Accepting more of it to come.
Whether fictioned or not!

    Romans 12:2 ... do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed

    MNT
    ... whatever has the character of truth, of dignity, of justice, of chastity, whatever can procure you esteem and reputation, in a word, if there be any thing virtuous or praise-worthy, let that be the object of your enquiry.
