Mona Lisa

(album: Mona Lisa - 2018)

The beauty's in the flaws

I wipe the coal out of my eyes and let the light in
Look to the sky as I'm inviting the sunshine
The lightning, the rainfall, the downpour, of snow
And how it whitens the whole ground and somehow that brightens
My whole day, run away? No way, come right in
I'm one with all the elements, the benefits of writing
Is I can remain here, but go there, I'm flying, I'm falling
The parachute just opened, look I'm gliding

Arriving thoughts heighten to the point I feel a slight wind
Goosebumps appear, you see 'em clearly on my light skin
Letters begin swarming words, form and take shape without a warning
I can feel my palms warming
It's happening again, all that I'm imagining
Is transferring onto this palette as I scratch it with a pen
The first facet of a gem
The corresponding scriptures start matching at the ends
And sound alike my sound bites are at a 10
The tone in my headphones have grown
To a frequency unknown
Some of us call this the zone
Every instrument is on they own but not alone
It's like we rent a separate apartment in a harmonious home

All I see is sounds, all I hear is colors
All I feel is nothing, it's a numbness like no other
Time is nonexistent, like forever in a moment
Wish this moment was forever but it's forever been just moment

I'm staring at a canvas that was once blank
Contemplate if this was read aloud what would one think?
How would they perceive it?
Will everyone receive it,
In the light that intended, comprehending every meaning
Or will the just breeze through it like a gentle summer evening
Is this even worth leaving my easel I flip the sheet
And there's a brand new canvas waiting for me, how convenient
It's eyebrow raising how I scrap a Mona Lisa

All I see is sounds, all I hear is colors
All I feel is nothing, it's a numbness like no other
(The beauty's in the flaws)
Time is nonexistent, like forever in a moment
Wish this moment was forever but it's forever been just moment
