Fear

It owns you and you don't know
Unnoticed most often, but strong as ever
And it has you by the ankles
And it tells you when to talk

It reprimands you and rewards you
It motivates you and cripples you in the same moment

Your language and your thoughts are tempered in it
The worst part is you believe it

It has been with you for so long that you have welcomed it
"What can I do for you today?"
"What lifelong dreams shall we abandon today?"
"What unreaslistic scenarios shall we concern ourselves with?"

It is ready to be placed in a duffle bag with anxiety and negativity and drowned in the pacific

Fearless

The Bus Ride

There are horses not being ridden
There are waters unpolluted
There are children unspoiled yet well-educated
There are dreams that will be realized

A man asks a question I don't get
And a woman sits on my lap
She is gorgeous and the sex is great
The man says 'so long'

I am satisfied but unchanged
Maybe the woman will have my child
Or maybe I will die
And now the wind feels refreshing

People love drama
I love solitude
You can own the animals
But I'll just pet them

One thing is for sure
Humans reign
And when my Ipod dies
I am left to fight my thoughts

A digital recording of Akon is a powerful drug

open the fuckin year

The enthusiasm is a lie
Argue with yourself
Pessimism is fortunately a lie as well
Things are great and getting better

Who am I talking to now?
My chris matthews, everything-is-wrong-with-the-world audience has dispersed
And I am left with the horror of optomism
A world where everything is bound to go right, period.

A world where complaints are trite and encouragement is priceless

Get back in the huddle
Learn the playbook, feign confidence and don´t be wrong
Embarassment, lessons, eagerness, don´t think

Don´t judge

Everything is gonna work out....
