No Go

Something's telling me no Something's telling me go And now the world it seems lost With points of view we won't know Makin' it hard to go with the flow And support the youth as they grow Hard for both sides to play the game If neither can catch nor throw Something's telling me chill Adapt to the ways and the will Adjust to the plays and the skill Then slow down, pause and be still They tellin' me more than they used to before They welcomed me warmly, I walked through the door My smile was quite nervous the service was strange, The people were laughing, but I could feel pain Obviously, We in another zone Music? Can't leave it alone I treat it like home The way that I curate this poem Reflections of stress and the way things are going I'm showing you good, bad and ugly If you think less of me My imperfect ways have lived here for days Songs are my craze With each word and phrase Melodies move and emerge from the maze Something's telling me no, no! Something's telling me go, go! And now the world it seems lost With points of view we won't know Makin' it hard to go with the flow And support the youth as they grow Hard for both sides to play the game If neither can catch nor throw Something's telling me chill Adapt to the ways and the will Adjust to the plays and the skill Then slow down, pause and be still They tellin me more than they used to before They welcomed me warmly, I walked through the door My smile was quite nervous the service was strange, The people were laughing, but I could feel pain It never gets old Stories are told Journeys unfold Weather gets cold People are searching Competing for gold Challenging norms Breaking the mold Taking these songs I'm making them all Giving them just what They need to be tall Vegetables, nutrients, nourishment Support, growth, encouragement Something's telling me no, no! Something's telling me go, go! And now the world it seems lost With points of view we won't know Makin' it hard to go with the flow And support the youth as they grow Hard for both sides to play the game If neither can catch nor throw Something's telling me chill Adapt to the ways and the will adjust to the plays and the skill Then slow down, pause and be still they tellin me more than they used to before They welcomed me warmly, I walked through the door My smile was quite nervous the service was strange, The people were laughing, but I could feel pain I'm passing traditions as part of my vision Sharing my love for the music's my mission Sound is the spark, light it, ignition Here comes the judge, court is in session Defendant is guilty of verbal expression Words are weaved in careful progressions Intricate patterns leave an impression He closes his eyes,the lyrics possess him Something's telling me no, no! Something's telling me go, go! And now the world it seems lost With points of view we won't know Makin' it hard to go with the flow And support the youth as they grow Hard for both sides to play the game If neither can catch nor throw Something's telling me chill Adapt to the ways and the will Adjust to the plays and the skill Then slow down, pause and be still They tellin me more than they used to before They welcomed me warmly, I walked through the door My smile was quite nervous the service was strange, The people were laughing, but I could feel pain
