The Dis(Regarded)
The DisRegarded... I don’t even know how I am going to save my life
Wonder as I go, ahead; barely enough strength left to even make it right
Choices at my feet, yet I walk down the same ol’ path. (Hear? Want and need is static)
Disappearing in front of me is a world (I fail to believe it holds magic)
Prelude Oh, tragic is… knowing where the rabbit hole goes; where tales told can tell a fact
Where folks lost down same wrong roads can slow. To a stop to take a good look back
Where you’re just trying to make it out to a destination found inside a Book
Where there’s no question love’s a direction seldom understood. Go listen if you would to the regarded
Chorus Oh, the disregarded; the overlooked (One overlooked baby!)
So brokenhearted by livelihood – and all life took Lost in translation bad words turned good (One bad turned good nigga)
Lesson so hard it ain’t even understood. So don’t heed any word I speak
Come here to me to hear the heartbeat
Of the disregarded…
Going through it the hardest…
Listen: I don’t even know how I’m going to change my life
Any day now it’s promised I’ll fly away (on one endless flight off into a horizon)
Ever alive, I’m bound to rise. Prize, I eye - watch sparrows glide
Searching For… just one moment hoping that it arrives
See the Lord observing –much to... Testify; voice my plight, through each psalm I cry
Certain the way it goes down in the melody forever survives
Better to learn that those same old three words (I love you)
Sung enough would do well on people Make them feel all right (We’ll be all right; no worrying)
Wailing a song no one simply describes
Prelude Where joy is so hard to explain, though well defined once it’s gone for good
To hear regrets of losing out on a blessing never understood
Go listen, if you would, to those regarded Chorus/Bridge
