A word for you my Brother, who walks here by my side
I know you will defend me, with Dignity and Pride
Its you with Arms, so Strong and True, with Heart that will prevail
You'll lead me in my Darkness, where those that wait still wail.
And when the Time does come my  Friend, for Me to leave this Life
It is for you to guard Her true, my Only One, my Wife
And though I know it is my Fate, to Die beneath Your hand
You'll follow and be with me there, in the new Promised Land.
The Lion waits outside my Door, You know what I must do.
And You alone possess the Strength, to carry this thing through.
So Understand with all your Soul, You so Brave and True.
I give you This my mortal Life, now do what You must do!

It is the hawk that I will follow.
No other possess truer heart.
It is the hawk that I will follow, and stand and make my mark.

To die amongst a unknown land
is that your only will?
Do not call that destiny when you are called by crow's false shrill.

I will follow hawk my friend and fly on truer winds.
I'll call out to the one who's spirit will never end.
I'll live this life that was given me until the spirit calls, and I will live it true and tall with love for everyone.

These words are straight they do not bend that I am giving you.
They will be the only ones I will give, and know that they are true.

I see that you are right my friend, into the light you'l go
Leaving me in darkness, deceived by that black crow
I wish you well, may your journey be safe, may you find that which you seek
As for me I think that I,
just need a good night's sleep!!

white feather,

I thank you for your council, I took it to my heart,
I see that you are right, and I will make a brand new start.
I'll start this very morning, I'll begin anew today,
To clear my eye and clear my head, of the fog you've blown away.

There are strange winds that blow these days before the setting sun.

It had never been this way when the earth was young.

I call out father God please let my life be true.

Don't let my soul turn dead and cold never knowing you.

All my spirit brothers call your Holy name.

Why so many answers, paths that lead to pain?

Is there not one true way to see your Holy face,
or is thy plan to command your created Holy race?

I do not have the answers that brings the question clear.

I do however have the sense to call out Father dear.

If this road I'm walking on leads further from your face,
devert my path and show no wrath, give only loving grace.

I'll walk this world a thousand lives...
just to get it right.

It should come as no surprise  that even serpents have mothers' too
the Greek's told us of her tradegy and even her snake hairdo
they say if one should gaze into her eyes she'll turn a man of flesh n bone
into a frozen statue, paralyzed and turned to stone

But I only sing the Book in a voice that's pure and fine
I'm not drunken like the others who're overcome with wine
Even the great medusa thinks she is someone else
when any Greek whose worth his salt must surely know himself

Some come to denounce me and say the black crow lies
while others hearken to him and say they see it through his eyes
but I trust God alone who will never fail us
and I can see right through the lies and the phony alias

For if I was Goliath I would fall quick by the sling
and give my life willingly for the One that would do me in
but I stand by my God above who shelters me with love
and turn a cheek to those who don't, the ones who push and shove

Now I could sing you many songs or tell you I'm his pen
but everything that needs be said is already written there within
His eyes were like a flaming fire, on his head were many crowns
and there's no words that need be added, to what's already written down.

I could get caught up in names but that's never been my job
dipped in blood the name is known, it's called the Word of God
and on his thigh he had a name that no man knew but he himself
yet there are many who would tell you his name is something else

So if you want a battle, to pierce me in the heart
you ought to open up and read, this time from the start
for as it was in the beginning, so shall it be in the end
Man and Woman reunited, to claim the blessing once again....

"May the things I know be limited only by my imagination"

He still thinks you are not who you say you are. You might want to prove it, you know you ain't that far.

I apologize to those I've hurt.
I will be much more careful with my words.
