Levitating my way across the thin ice
thinking happy thoughts back to sunlight
where I go now is a place I've never been
to rest feet on solid ground is so frightening
I'll ease myself off these crutches till I stand alone
steady as I go forward with my own backbone
learning the focus and practicality that can structure me
a way to apply the psychic reside and fluid creativity
One foot after the other, one step and day at a time
take it slow, take it simple, soon my life could be mine
my way out the second womb, to sever the phantom umbillical
to cure addiction to dependence, grow self-sufficency and control
Categorize, calculate, organize a list and check it twice
learn the lessons from the earthly elements in your life
to feel the skin again, the old shell that's been forever distant
learn to never give up, keep positive and ruthlessly persistent
Everyone's got to grow, and you've been holding back
got derailed in the sands of time behind, return to track
learn the art of evolution here as well as revolution
don't drag feet, just walk, its the only real solution
Even if life is a dream, that's no excuse to sleepwalk through life
like a tortoise in a shell, like the ostrich head in a hole you hide
giving your power away and over you from that which you run
time to gather strength, turn around, face and conquer your demons
Experience here has always been the best of teachers
Life, the biggest classroom, and the tests don't get easier
never saved by a bell, and you can never be late to class
and you just take the classes over until you pass.
