A Poet Nomad Ali - Make A Wish lyrics
Close your eyes, make a wish, let it sink in Tell me if what you wished for you can find in him Or you can find it in her, tell me if your wish is makin it big Tell me your dreams, Money or kids A family or live lavishly plush rich to no end Maybe you wish for friends because you don't have any real ones left Maybe you just hope you can make it till tomorrow Maybe you have no hope, just a heart drowned in sorrow Maybe good things will follow after your dream comes true Maybe I wish for the same thing as you Maybe we aren't so different, me and you, could it be Two people who don't know each other share identical views Maybe you believe in something better after here, wish for that Maybe you feel trapped, maybe you hate rap In which case you can't hate this, unless You hate poetry, an well, if you hate that Maybe you are lonely, And I'm only makin it worse Will all these talks of wishes, and these sad melodic bursts That deepen the hurt, but I'm sorry I have a feverish thirst And my wish is that people hear these words before they disperse As the attempt of a young poet to speak to the world Relate to people for better or worse and share a part of his soul It's a part of this curse, this is only part of the verse It gets deeper like hidden messages played in reverse This life is like a circus and my role is jester of course Sing a song, dance a dance, Tell a joke you rehearsed Make us laugh, make us cry, don't care which you do first Take us back to that time in our lives before we were hurt Let us love like it was for the first time, like we never got hurt Let us sing like we did as children with cheery rings when no one is listening Let us dance free and full of joy not afraid, like when no one is watching Let us be us, and that's its okay and trust that tears are like rust Inevitable and beautiful acidic poisons released From deep within us, Deep within the blush of embarra**ing cheeks Is a sweet child and a mirror where the self is unleashed Take my hand and promise me not to forsake, my trust is not breeched And I will fight for you as I fight for air, drowning beneath a sea In other words I will fight for you as I fight for me And I fight for he would I would give my life to My friend, my brother I am just like you Just like two, seeds separated at birth Just like I call a holy place a Mosque, you call it a church Just like the rest of humankind, we put ourselves on a search To find truth to find love, whichever comes first Or whichever hurts less, and then we need to be nursed Back to our old selves again, a renaissance, a rebirth Where this life, such gift brings a joy that is burst Every blade of gra** becomes a house where a soul is immersed Maybe this world is not a place for soft hearts and big dreamers Dreams get brushed away like trash by street sweepers Love is just a word that doesn't last but dig deeper Make a wish everytime this song bleeds through your speakers
