Music of today.
Has its roots in yesterday.
Like some words we say.

On my way back home.
I'll pick up some trust for you.
It doesn't come cheap.
You can pay me back with faith.
Doesn't come with interest.

Lovely black and whites.
They're photos that come to life.
Colors of my dreams.

Movies mimic life.
Lives we'd never know to be.
Not like you or me.

Don't throw shade at me.
While talking with your hands full.
You've enough to bear.

I cannot be bought.
You have tried your very best.
My soul not for sale.
Only because he's been caught.
The devil then tries to bail.

You are always there,
when I need a hand to hold.
When I am at my wits end.
When I'm shaking from the cold.
You love the person I am.
I love the same thing about you.
We were once two strangers.
We met out of the blue.
We've been through it all.
Through the good times and the pain.
You're a rose among the weeds.
My shelter from the rain.
I will say I love you.
And that comes right from the heart.
I will swear it In my vows.
Our journey then will start.
