Elevate

Elevate......
Reach me here at the top.
Elevate my mind to whims of intellectual pursuits,
mental aerobics of ecstasy.
Knowledge of Power.
Power of Knowledge.
Blow my mind with the spiritual elite
recognized only to the unknown eye.
Invisible gates opening up to those who pray.
Converse with me about compartmentalized theories
intertwined with constant facts of our collective reality.

Elevate.......
because I will not walk down to the level of blissful ignorance,
basing my existence on strife to which fools consider paradise.
Rise...Rise to the top where I stand,
where God has anointed all
who will spread his message of peace,
truth and understanding.

Fear is running rampant and all those who are weak,
bow down to live life on their knees,
respectfully placing fear above all other needs.
Holding up the creed to lie, manipulate and deceive,
to judge, have strife and hate.

Elevate.......
above man's infectious disease,
crippling and paralyzing the masses
who can't see a shift taking place,
where the last will be first and the first will be last.

Elevate......
Reach me here at the top or
F

fall back and be cut off to the abundance of life,
which God bestows upon all those who believe they deserve.
To which no man can remove or ever destroy what God has touched,
and to do so will be a demise inflicted upon them by their own immorality.

Karma, a truth of life we cannot escape,
a truth of life we must all face,
which sooner or later becomes our fate.
Elevate... the mind.

Elevate.
