Go hard after it
Whatever it is
That one thing
Learn that lesson
Lose that weight
That one thing
For me
It has always been
To freely sing
But I am learning how
And I will now
Do that one thing
Sometimes too big
Out of control
A cannon ring
Sometimes weak
Cracked and raw
Songs in a sling
I've given it up
I've gotten it back
It's a trick on string
I scream notes
I cry music
Give it wings
I go hard
To learn and be
God-help-me-ing
My voice is mine
I'll die for it
My life to bring
My poetry - my alter
I leave it here
I'm promising
To use my voice
No matter the cost
For truth-telling
Go hard after it
With words, song & prayer,
For me
It has always been
To freely sing
But I am learning how
And I will now
Do that one thing
Sometimes too big
Out of control
A cannon ring
Sometimes weak
Cracked and raw
Songs in a sling
I've given it up
I've gotten it back
It's a trick on string
I scream notes
I cry music
Give it wings
I go hard
To learn and be
God-help-me-ing
My voice is mine
I'll die for it
My life to bring
My poetry - my alter
I leave it here
I'm promising
To use my voice
No matter the cost
For truth-telling
Go hard after it
Whatever it is
That one thing
Follow that dreamscape
Or escape the dream
Do that one thing
With words, song & prayer,
TiMo
