i am someone deeply blessed
mostly i'm profoundly happy
it's a strange way to be in this world
but i'm cool with that
we're so sick and hungry
so very, very fond of our
small worlds in smaller minds
small worlds in smaller minds
all you really have
is the body you were born in
your mind that wants to burn and
the soul that propels you around
launch yourself into orbit
(where you gonna fly)
launch yourself into orbit
(stand and ask yourself why or)
launch yourself into orbit
see far for yourself
and if our orbits cross
and you are kind, and clean of mind
connection is infinite

i'm becoming
i have many names
most who know me call me eala
i swim in change
foundations chosen wisely
language is silly, but it seems to be all we have
music makes something cool out of it
communicate on every level
i am a singer, singing for my soul
a soul stretcher
a teacher of things
not all might think useful
inspired by possibility
and those i let close
heal by being
sure that i am absolutely nothing and absolutely everything
all at once
strive to be very small and very big
in the same exact space
learn from everything
but sometimes i still catch myself sleeping with my eyes open
try to know when to stop talking
and listen more deeply
i like to listen deeply
when pure motives breed trust
energy is precious
strive to give a lot in a small space
and be a lot in the small space that is the only life we know right now
life is wide open
i always want to look forward
to the me
i'm becoming
i'll fill it in as i go
(rock on, people!)
