All I Need Is A Purpose
The human experience is the resonance
In a world of fragile, sinking ships
Where waves of emotion catch you unbidden
Their permanence lost, forgotten, hidden
You can curse the waves that pull you under
And wonder if you’re torn asunder
Will the paradox of pain and joy
Be worth the past's and future's ploy
Down and down and down, you drown
Alone it seems, but not un-found
Emotion you bear will be your strength
Lay rest your heart and soul to take
For the sting of woe lives short despite
The scars on hearts, a short respite
To the feelings that float on the wings of change
Hurt turns to love and love is strange
But love it seems was worth the swim
So claw your way on the island
No cares for what was lost on by
No, turn your face up to the sky
Without purpose there is no drive to point
No promise of understanding here to anoint
Humanity gives us the need to survive
Purpose demands that we stay alive
So thank and pray for what you’re worth
A laugh, a tear, no need to search
Purpose and drive make all of the difference
With each dream you create human experience
