night thoughts - dolio the sleuth lyrics

thank god i got a roof over my head, shoes on my feet
clothes upon my back, food that i can eat
air that i can breathe, clean water i can drink
things we often take for granted hardly ever stop to think

sometime i lie awake at night, wheels turning in my mind
thoughts rapidly entangled calling for me to unwind
just to set them out before me to examine the designs
and look over all the factors for solutions there to find

plenty problems that we face could find their answers from within
many of us know we have to, but we know not where to begin
so i look to the divine to give me focus with this pen
in the presence of the lions i seek solace in the den

in the morning when i rise, i give thanks for another day
pray for guidance in my journey, clearing paths along the way
so the obstacles i’m seeing won’t amount to a delay
pour libations for the ancestors who’ve gone and passed away, aché

amidst the silence, all i’m hearing is a pulse
and the sound of precious oxygen expelling from his lungs
beloved, the living legacy, our lineage, our son
pray our teaching surely leads him to great things as an adult
and should we ever have a daughter, may our mothers be our guide
may we pass on all the lessons from the template they provide
may our children be our witness as we lead them side by side
giving them the keys to drive whatever vision they decide

horizons ever wide, pathways in abundance
a life characterized by experiences of substance
blessings overflowing , multiplying by the hundreds
and a solid moral compass leading decisions toward justice

fundamentally inspired as they focus in their service
paint the canvas with each brush stroke delivered with a purpose
significance determined by more than just the surface
but the wonderful ingredients that make a better person

may the light i have inside me burn as bright
as the beacon that illuminates the night giving sight
to my fellow travelers on their journey so they might
fulfill their destiny, wings with capacity for flight

audacity to fight for exactly what is right
and that’s the scratch upon the box that causes matches to ignite
let it catch, fan the flame, raise the stature to a height
till it naturally exhibits all the passion to unite
the many factions that were fractured by the fractions of the slice
familiar factors and their actions cause the fragments to align
past imaginary lines that were drafted from the lies
that the parasitic actors used to capture all the minds

it’s distraction by design, these reactionary times
enough to change perspective like a blast of acid to the eye
sometimes the answer isn’t given if the asking isn’t right (why?)
destination driven by the captain of the flight
