God smiles on the golden born
The golden child was born smiling
Born smiling, live smiling
The steel children learn to smile
They wear their smile to live
Live smiling, die smiling
Smiling children of gold and steel
The smile of the golden born is beautiful
The smile of the steel child is admirable
Golden children’s smiles are born
Steel children’s smiles are earned
omni-poet:
Poor soul once on the path of destiny
Looked to the future, chased by memories
They were the enemies, enigmatic entities
With dogmatic tendencies
Beasts of the past, feast on the present
With fangs of pain crafted through years of strain
Left the body destroyed and mangled
In a closed casket…
omni-poet:
They say look at glass half full
Ignoring the half that is empty
In reality, it doesn’t matter
As long as the thirst is quenched
omni-poet:
People tend to think that strength is the absence of weakness.
I like to think strength is the acceptance of weaknessIf its weak to cry. If its weak to accept defeat. If its weak to show emotion.
Being strong would mean choosing the easy way out by hiding everything that makes us human.The strong cry. The strong accept defeat. The strong show emotion.
It takes true strength to do things normally seen as weak.
omni-poet:
What is beauty?
Is it what you see
Is it how you feel
Or is it about appeal
Is it abstract or concrete
Is it sweet like a treat
Can it be obtained
Or is it given by fate
Who says who is beautiful
Is it a group of friends
Is it whoever follows trends
Whose the judge whose the jury
Is…
omni-poet:
Pain, I feel it
Depression, I feel it
Sadness, I feel it
Doubt, I feel it
Why? It hurts.
Why feel if it hurts?
Joy, I feel it
Happiness, I feel it
Hope, I feel it
Strength, I feel it
Positive and negative
Whats the difference?I can feel success
I can feel defeat
I can feel
Can I control how I…
omni-poet:
Running at the speed of skill, passion, and will
Moving faster than possible, stopping is improbable
Life moves fast but I’m faster than that
Nothing holding me back, moving forward
I look onward, I’m tired but inspired
To chase my dreams, after being so idle
The actions of a pacifist chasing…
omni-poet:
I love knives, slice so nice
Cut and dice, pierce
Thrust, sharp device
Smooth edges, red edges
Sharp tips, drenched tips
They want to take you
What to do? I’ll hide you
Keep you close to my heart
Hide you from the dark
Red is the color of love
I see that you love me
Producing red, fruitfully
I’d blush bashfully
But there’s no red in me
You took it all selfishly
I gave it all lovingly
Stop nibbling my wrist
And give me one last kiss
omni-poet:
Land of the fee, home of the slave
Pledge allegiance to the devil’s legions
Of red, white, and blue demons
Fifty different forms of hell
Ruled by dead presidents
We live off their remnants
We need the dead so we can live
So we can’t live without the dead?
There’s blue collar and white collar
The dead is on the dollar
So there’s blood on the collar
Red, white, and blue. Red collar
Bred from blood, sweat, and tears
Fed on flaws, pain, and fears
The U.S. does not mean us
omni-poet:
They say winners never quit
And quitters never win
What about the losers
Do they just give in
What about him
What about her, the loser
Can’t they be a winner
Or is that against the order
The preset success and failureTriumph or defeat?
Some say we decide
But reality decides
As humans we abide
Opportunity, luck, skill
Are traits of the strong
Misery and weak will
Reside with the “wrong”
Fate smiles at some
And glares at others
Within weakness there is strength
Within strength there is weakness
Heel of Achilles, labours of Herakles
The greatest of heroes were flawed
The weakest of heroes were perfect
Arrogance of Narcissus, Pride of Samson
A child of gold breaks against iron
A man as rigid as steel breaks iron
The steel man defeats the golden child
David and Goliath, Athens and Sparta
Perfection creates a heroes flaws
Weakness forms a hero’s greatness
A hero’s greatest strength is his weakness
A hero’s greatest weakness is his strength
omni-poet:
Optimism is a luxury
Pessimism is reality
Reality is a luxury
Optimists are pessimisticFailure is a normality
Success is a rarity
Rarities are luxuries
Normalities create realitySuccess is pessimistic
To an optimistic failure
omni-poet:
Mr. Opportunity was knocking on my door
I flipped him off, I’m paying the cost
In debt, I’ve lost my head I’ve caused this death
Suicide by staying aside
I’ve lived my life on the sidelines
Right at the edge of despair
Only fulfilling the guidelines
I didn’t try, I didn’t care
I did the absolute…
omni-poet:
I see him, he sees me
He doesn’t see a person
I don’t see a human
I see a dog of the law
He sees a monkey in a suit
I measure my tail against his
Because he looks down at me
But then he barks at me, I flee…
omni-poet:
I forgot where I was going
Yet I still walk this path
I forgot where I started
Yet I still walk this pathI look at my footprints
And remember where I have walked
I look at my scars
And remember what I have done
I look ahead
And remember where I have beenI remember when I couldn’t
Nowadays I…
