| I was reborn in chaos like a lotus flower
|
| The darkness embraced me
|
| I didn’t know I needed love till I was
|
| Suffocating
|
| Oh yes
|
| For some of us it takes time to be seated
|
| In one of three bear’s chairs before we
|
| Find out we are Goldilocks and this isn’t our home
|
| Ego, id, and flesh, we are spirit isolated alone
|
| Just using these bones
|
| I was introspective in the mud, dew drops felt more like a flood
|
| I couldn’t see the morning dew but she surrounded me
|
| Too much of anything is never sweet
|
| The earth elements were soaked in its heaviness
|
| The soil makes dew stick like evidence
|
| Evidence that I’ve been locked down
|
| Evidence that I’m underground
|
| Evidence that I’m just pursued
|
| I was a true, life uprooted me
|
| Oh yes
|
| Dew seems sweet when it’s only drops
|
| The sun shines on it as it glides
|
| Down lotus leaves and evaporates into the day
|
| My dew drops felt more like rain
|
| Dew wasn’t sweet, it was formative
|
| It wasn’t cooling, it was cold
|
| It didn’t glide, it seeped through to my pores
|
| I could feel it grasp my ribs and shift my soul
|
| And my breaths were pressed against it
|
| Deep breaths were a conscious effort
|
| Nobody saw me learning lessons
|
| I was underground, class was in session
|
| Oh, the leaves of my lotus flower
|
| Pink or covered in mud, they formed
|
| The leaves of my darkest hour
|
| Invisible under mud, reborn
|
| Oh yes
|
| Have you ever been formed in the darkness
|
| Have you ever been formed beneath the elements of earth and water?
|
| I hope you know that you are surrounded and dew drops
|
| They will be sweet soon, you will rise above the earth
|
| And rest with the sun as your friend
|
| And the water that pulls you into submission
|
| Will be the water that cools you as your petals become the testimony
|
| Of a word that was said before you, a flower
|
| While you were becoming one, end it to address you now
|
| To be a lotus flower today
|
| Is to have always been becoming one
|
| To be a lotus flower today
|
| Is to have always been one becoming
|
| Beneath the dew drops
|
| Oh yes
|
| Peace |
