Keep Your Silver & Gold

I look to the Heavens for my vision 
I have no interest in the silver & gold this world is giving 
or rather selling in return for my soul 
Because I know that wisdom 
is worth so much more 
It's the rich who are poor 
Of course, if you consider wealth 
as a dollar amount 
Then I doubt you'd understand 
But my plan is to teach the people 
to be able to see through 
all the lies 
And be wise enough to seek the Truth  
The youth is my primary concern 
Because they're willing to unlearn 
All the nonsense they've been taught That worth is somehow bought 
Like happiness is something you can purchase 
If you don't own this or that, then you're worthless 
No. Your worth is 
not determined by what you possess 
But Into Whom you invest 
For where your heart rests 
Your treasures will be also 
So follow the right path 
Find that flame in you and ignite that! 
Fight back when the enemy comes to attack 
Keep the Love in tact 
Act in kindness 
Choose to See in a world of blindness 
I know it's hard 
You feel like a candle in this dark 
But you gotta shine 
You gotta find that strength within you to keep trying 
To keep speaking the truth while others are lying.

Love is Like the Wind

Love is like the wind
Sometimes fleeting, fast....
Tumultuous, destroying everything in its path
Yet it can be
as gentle as a kiss on the cheek
from a soft breeze
capturing the very breath that escapes your lips....
