What you see makes what you think;
What you think makes your belief.
if it be truth that you would think,
what you see will be your treat.

As you think it in your heart,
so are you then, in your act.
As it were, burned in your hearth,
So its glow, deep from your heart.

For a prophecy to work,
Each party must work its part;
For a promise to be kept,
Each party must keep its part.

Keep assumptions abay
Stay presumptions away;
To truly make your way
An ode to knowledge you must pay.

-

The name you call you,
The name I call you;
The name you give you,
The name they give you;
That name, the name
Is the name of the game!

You are who you call you
And not who I call you;
Or you are who I call you
If you would so call you,
who I would call you.
You still are, who you call you!

You must be who you call you
And not who they call you;
As who you call you
Is who they call you.
So call you your name
So they call you, your name!

I was told I would not know you
Even if you told me your name
I was taught, you could not be touched
Even if you were a hair’s breath away

I was told you were out of reach
A cost I could never attain
I was shown, those that you had scorched
Just to show them the error of their way

I was told I would lose my me
And all that would make me a name
I was brought to think it is botched
Before my erring thoughts would go your way

Alas! I can feel your heart beat
The rhythm; I am uncertain
And my hands; are indeed scorched
But for love, I could not turn away!

-

I dey see your mind
You for no be masquerade
Just comot the mask

-

Your happiness is a thought away
Very near the twinkle in your eyes
Your happiness is a smile away
So close, you hold it in your hands

Your happiness is right where you lay
Beneath the crook of your arms
Or right there… where you may
Ready to nestle in your arms

-

Your happiness is a thought away
Very near the twinkle in your eyes
Your happiness is a smile away
So close, you hold it in your hands

-

Forget what was
Forbid it’s presence
Embrace the present
Enter new doors

Live today today
And leave yesterday there
Live to pave the way
And find tomorrow there

Regain your breathe
Refrain from regret
Remain in true stead
And reclaim your rest

-

The difficulties in the world
Are created or contained
By those who live in it

The possibilities also
Or impossibilities… are gained
By the desire for it

So create your possibilities
Contain your difficulties
By your desire for it!

That I scream any less
Doesn’t make it any less simple
That I make it look simple
Doesn’t mean I’m any less skillful

That the smile seems effortless
Doesn’t mean it was without effort
That the bow cuts through water
Means it is friends with the propeller

There must be effort on every side
These things that work;
They must side with effort,
There must be effort to make it effortless.
