Go With The Flow Poem by Sven Rhoads

Too many years have been passing me by
Down in a hole where I swear I would die
My wings are burnt by my own inner flame
And the blood on my hands spells out my name
Now I'm breathing that air that's fresh and clean
I'm standing above the smoking ruins I've made
Now I'm looking in deep to a whole new crusade
I cant take anymore of the way things have been
All I know for sure is this is a fight I must win

On these rushing rapids where life twists and turns
All the scrapes and cuts still come to burn
Those salty drops that have become this river
Have lead to this point to go with the flow
In these crazy times there's no turning back
So sick and tired of painting my world black
I need to complete the puzzle that lays in splinters
And take this river wherever it may go
Just go with the flow

I tried to be a man but I was more of a stone
Sabotage and hatred were sown into my bones
The black bags under these insomniac eyes
Finally found the explanation to feel alive
Now the tables have and those demons now run
No longer feeling like I'm behind the gun
As the river flows wild and I hold on tight
One small victory is all I need each night

Now that I breathe you can no longer be killing me
So many horizons are here for me to see
I will bring back my soul from the state of loss
No time to waste counting all the cost
Now that I breathe I can face a new dawn with possibility
Its all in my hands, all what it can be
I will pull the infection out of me within
No time to waste, its time to begin

If the angels fall with burning wings
I will find a way through everything
If the stars just fall right out of the sky
I will pick them up and make things right
If the earth will burn in the summer sun
I will plant the crops for a new dawn to come
If the compass no longer comes to know
I will close my eyes and go with the flow
