Peace of Mind (pt. 2)

from Second Decade EP by J Tames

lyrics

Got home earlier than usual
Thank someone don’t have to go to the cubicle
I don’t work but I’m still glad I don’t have to punch in any numerals
Might skip a class waste my student loan
Watch some episodes of a show on my own
Until this hangover is all gone
But I do want to do something today
That one thing might just be blaze
But goddamn I want to live my life a different way
For too many years being in the same place
Want to see a bump up in the statistics in the chart of my life
Notice something’s missing a void in this part of my life
You know what, ima go on a walk and clear my mind
This time it’ll be different cause there is daylight
Not night, no shadows so there is no place to hide

I walk through the streets at night
Trying to find some peace of mind
But every time I realize
I’m missing a part of me

Open the door and feel a breeze of fresh air
Take a deep breath, there go my cares with this exhale
I’m bouncing down the stairs
While I get the stares from old men in chairs
Have a nice day! They could tell it was sincere
As they invited me for beers
I replied I respectfully decline a cold beer would be divine
Ill stop by another time
But right now I gotta find something missing
They said something back but I couldn’t listen
Words taken to dance with the wind in the distance
I walk in the speed that pleases me
Run a few steps then take a seat
Where should I go should I let the wind lead me
Like I was a leaf that fell off of one of these trees
And got lost like the old man’s preach?
Man what is it what I seek?
Man what is it what I seek?

I walk through the streets at night
Trying to find some peace of mind
But every time I realize
I’m missing a part of me

So I set sail no set trail
Let’s feel like a bat out of hell
I wanna come back with a story to tell
Or better yet a show and tell
Alright lets head to the pier
I’ll probably find something there
I know there’s where people go to get their mind clear
So I stroll with my mind closed determined to make it my year
A positive mind set’s the idea
I have arrived, the seagulls cry, wind in my eyes, natural high
Look to the left and I just can’t believe my pair of eyes
I’m paralyzed and then I realize
This is what I wanted I’m feeling optimistic this chance I can’t miss it
Forget all the lines Ive got listed
Ill just speak from the heart, excuse me misses
It’s a beautiful day isn’t it
I don’t mean to intrude but I just got to tell you
You’re heaven sent your eyes are so blue and innocent
And in a sense we’ve got to be together
I woke up this morning feeling as light as a feather
Looking for the bird who I’d fly with whenever
I know I stare….

Let me stop you there
You won’t believe your ears
I heard in the wind an old man say find love
I took it to heart and thought of it as a sign of
Destinyyyy

And now youre here with me
And we’re looking for the same thing
I can’t help but believe
That maybe we’re meant to be
So take my number please
