Amazed - Pete Philly, Perquisite

I kick back and I see

The way of humanity

Beauty and insanity

The circle sustains its movement endlessly

Observing man’s way

Remaining so amazed

By it’s duality

No doubt about it

Even when my mind’s clouded

I appreciate the sense of faith

The love and hate

And I shout it…

Out when I need to

Sometimes I see through

All the B.S., the strain and the stress

Then I just sing

I sometimes wonder why

A song can get me high

This music can make me cry

Yet images of war desensitize

Corruption and poverty

Can only capture the

Part of me that turns it into poetry

I stay amazed by the race I chase lies

I find them then I walk away

I’m pacified by the maze and I hate lies

But I’ll find my way

Through rhythm and rhyme

Or I’ll just sing
