part 1 | part 2 | part 3 | part 4
written June 2018
I wore a mask and you came to me
Begging for a map that you didn't need
Now I'll give you what you wanted the least
When it's all over you'll be thanking me
Come, follow me
To the edge of the place you think you need to be
Now at the last second I've swallowed that key
It's time for you to truly see
You never really needed me
I'm just a stepping stone to help set you free
There's much more than me I guarantee
I can point you there, but it's your path to lead
At this point I'll only hold you back
Now you must take the solitary path
Discover your own power, who you are, your song
That the bliss I gave you was inside you all along
Now I've guided you to the door
You can stay or leave; the choice is yours
Stay, wait, always wondering what's behind it
Leave, let me go, and actually find it
Now go forward, no fear, don't look back, dive in
You will not drown, you will learn to swim
Become stronger than you've ever been before
Open your life and your mind to so much more
So much more
