Unlocked

More often than not, I think of you.
It's funny how it comes and goes.
But it's always there and it always knows,
we're flying somewhere in space and time
yeah we're together and we rhyme.
And the mind is such a powerful thing
the way it twists and turns
frets and sings
lines upon lines
and into parallels
like a fret board on a guitar.
Is this heaven or is this hell?
I can hear it's a little off she says,
so she fine tunes the off beat keys.
Playing by ear keeps her in focus,
she's kind of thrilled by the tease.
Everyday we're creating and dreaming
up something new.
Do you think of me?
Cuz I think of you.
And all this thinking and wondering
got me goin' a little bit crazy.
But that's okay darling
when it's right it's worth the waiting.
And it's like all these tiny conversations
create this bigger picture in my mind;
and then I get scared and think
is this all an illusion?
In reality are we really blind?
Am I everything I'm cracked up to be?
Are you everything you appear to be?
Are we building something of a catastrophe?
Is this even real to me...
Whoa. That's some mind blasting.
Russell Peters you said it dawg.
I can't even explain, but I'll try my best.
Just then she hears the beat of her heart...
it's deep breaths, deep breaths...
guiding lights, remembering
the music orchestrated in her being.
Yes, you passed the test.
I can see you peeking
around the corners of your box.
It's not like I'm really waiting
I'm just here open and unlocked.
There's no mystery, no fear to be
something unattainable in reality.
Convention keeps us locked in chains
I know the feeling, I know the drain.
Please rest your head, please hold your heart
I'm different than the reason you fell apart.
I've come full circle, I hope you'll see
and moreso that you'll feel,
that love is freedom
and it's realer than real.
