Thavius Beck Away
I’m an escapist
Yep it’s time to get away
The day like any other
Outside forces conspire to smother
The flames of desire
Raging like wild brush fire
It’s so easy to inundate
Your true state with one full of compromise
Content with your comforts ‘til you realize
The size of the façade you’ve placed before G-d
So just how do you set it straight?
And capture what you were initially after?
Yet another question for which I lack an answer
Can you outpace disaster if you run faster?
Not carrying the worlds weight
Or a seemingly equivalent amount
Deep within can be a hard fought bout
Time to refocus
Escape
Be without
And I’m out
I’m an escapist
Yep it’s time to get away
From bright lights and towers
Leaches
Vampires
And those who devour
All of the nectar and taint the very essence of the flower
So now it’s time to motivate
Far away from the weeds and fields of barren seeds
To cultivate the mind state that you need
And later assess any mess and make progress
And no
No need to set a date
‘Cuz this process occurs and is constant
See life can be overwhelming from the onset
But there’s paradise here for the one who truly wants it
So go
Don’t just contemplate
All the possibilities and what ifs
Or become numb drowning sorrows by the fifth
Pour the pain down the drain and make the scenery shift
