I was sitting on my front deck and had a laugh at myself
Envisioning my faults and being honest between the creator and I
I had to admit I can be a fool, stubborn, impish and egotistical in my own mind
Thankfully not all of them all at once
But it was a lighthearted moment between the creator and I
And I envisioned the creator having a laugh at the part that I play
In fact I envision all of those on the other side
Laughing they're ***** off at who I am and what I've done
Much as I might like to think I know I'm not perfect
Getting egg on your face is part of the show
I really feel that this life is a game that our souls play
They come to forget most of they're wisdom and experience
Basically start from scratch and see how well they do
With a limited amount and set of variables
I guess I'm learning to listen to and follow my heart
Not lean so heavily on my mind and thoughts
I'm learning how easily the mind can lead you astray
Make your heart weary when it just came to play
But I think at this age and point in my life
I've sorted a lot out and am mostly done with the strife
Although I know they are all having a good laugh on the other side
I think the ones that know me are proud and love me for what I have done
I've endured a lot done some good and done some harm
Lived my life like surfing a wave
Never had a plan or direction to go
Just seized what came and went with the flow
Somehow I landed on my feet
So while I can be a fool, stubborn, impish and egotistical
I'm really just an acrobat
