JUST: The Anthem



Just.
Let it fly
and lie open
to sunshine
and the winds
of self-
abuse
and some
mercy
and some
hope
and some
fat
wads of
money,
to buy some
love and
goodwill and
some peace
and all the
other stuff
that
keeps
life
going.


Just.
Let it fly
and take
with it
all my miseries
and my pain
for ever,
to some
place dark
and lonely,
desecrated
with some
hidden kind
of meaning
thrown
around.


Just.
Let it fly
and divide
its time
between
life and
death and
some other
kinds
of fun
and some
different
types
of games.


Just.
Let it fly
and look
down at
the sleeping
crowds below
and say
Glory,
Hallelujah,
Praise the lord
coz we're
lucky and
insane
and
ridiculous.


Just.
Let it fly
and keep
wondering
where
the fuck
this shit
is gonna
take you
then say
Amen
to that
and that
and
the other
then just
whisper a
Goodbye.


Just…
Let….
It…
Fly….

Sky…
High…

Where
ever
that
may
be.


!!!!These words need to be sung, People!!!!

    Why don’t we “just let it”? Why do we hang onto past hurts and broken promises? Why do we vividly remember slights and wrongs done to us? Why can we easily recall painful memories, but forget joyful ones? Why do we let people we care about slip from our lives? If we harbor anger and resentment, they become our god. They fill our days with endless inner arguments.
    Just.
    Let it.

    I relate.
    I wish I did not.
    I wish I didn't know Pain's
    name or face.

    Wish.

    I don't know the tune...HOWEVER, I do a fine rendition of Hall and Oats over at my place-if I do say so myself! So, Dhiraj: whats the tune? Please.

    Bename can't you see that I am flying already :)

    M, 'If we harbor anger and resentment, they become our god'... that's awesomely put.... I agree... totally.

    ~d but u can't escape not knowing Pain, which is ultimately just a second-hand emotion... no big deal therefore, but you gotta know it to rise above it! The tune? I dunno... just let it... come to you :)

    OK. I am back. And I sang it. And I had this old Beastie Boys/311 kind of 'white rap' going to it...
    Much much better...yeah.
    Dude-do you like ever pass by my place, man? Or are you one of those 'silent passer-by-ers? You know-you pass thru and don't say a word?

    All sneaky like?

    Happy WEEKend!!

    ...it sounded like Angels and Devils battling over a Goddess who can change shape at will.
    Do you know that sound, Dhiraj?
