License And Registration Please
By: Noah Eaton
12/30/00

It is a small world after all, but it could be a lot bigger
As we all stand here, thunderstruck with the promises we have for the future
Promises we treasure to ourselves, promises that we can’t keep
As the placid talons of responsibility burden us, swaying our rites of passages

Life is an expedition in a hedge maze, rendered with all the artifacts of life
As we piece it together, we coast through this whole “license and registration please” endeavor
Ordain eyes of the overseen stare at us from the oaths and contracts we engrave our stamps upon
This burden of loyalty licks it’s stamp to your face and leaves you steering fate in creeds steeplechase

It’s a survival of the fittest situation, but anyone could win this game if they keep trustworthy
Go through this arduous cycle, yet be able to follow your dreams
Being able to play hearts card in a deck of reasons
Where we seek joy and freedom as we don’t have to draw from the deck again

We’ve walked
We’ve dreamed
We’ve talked
We’ve singed
We’ve praised
We’ve fought
We’ve faced
Pain that we had undesirably sought
Just believe in yourself and your dreams now, as we continue to follow our priorities
And we can expand upon this small world with new fruitful promises and love and fidelity
