Down Again

I ‘ve reached again the lowest point
but this time it feels a lot more fun
because I know for a fact I ‘ll get back up

Those things that keep getting better
are the ones not under my control
as always though, I need more

So far away from everyone else
one may ponder why I am still here
keep going ahead without any fear

Not sure if I should say all these
to someone I don’t know, like you
do you really know how to be true?

I ‘ve seen the good, I ‘ve seen the bad
the world is still moving on quite fast
let’s hope all resources will last

The yellow, the red, the blue, the white
all colours seem to be a little bright
same as your future and perhaps mine

The Times are AI Changing…

It is not something really new
well I guess that’s my point of view
it’s been expected a while now…

Some people say it has begun
the end is near and other stuff
all I can think of really is wow…

It’s everywhere and everything
but still recognizable a bit
at least for now you can tell…

The “times are changing” is a trap
most people unable to keep up
hope this one ends well…

It’s just another tool indeed
perhaps an ego satisfying “I did!”
use or abuse is up to you…

In an already superficial world
we experience artificial more and more
change is constant, mind you…

What is real anymore?

I Choose Not To…

An opportunity has appeared
but I decided to not even try
as bad as it may sound or look
only I, can understand why

It’s one thing moving forward
it’s another enslaving myself
to what others call “better life”
I will remain on the same shelf

The reason is quite simple now
yet it is hard to be understood
I know myself and it’s too early
I ‘m not ready for the shoot

When will I be ready? you ask
when is it the right time then?
I know me, I like to take my time
hopefully not too late by then

People seem surprised at first
people seem to undermine me
the sacrifice is not worth it
and I see no benefitting me

In a “better life” where I lose me
I choose not to dive in

Made It

Made it for once without too much hustle
it just came to me and went all in
never to forget so much confidence in me
what I heard eventually at least was “wow”

It’s strange when you feel like that alone
a whole different thing in front of others though
and it just somehow hit me not to say no
all the odds turned in favour, how? I do not know

One of those times that your instinct works
you know exactly what to do and you have lots
yet it’s almost crystal clear how you connect the dots
ignoring what keeps you back and stalls

Don’t like to brag about it but I made it
still happy now that’s why I can say it
a few moments of being proud and enjoy it
I really never thought I would made it

Easy now…

The same things that bothered me in the past
have now got back to me and they ‘re pushing hard
now whatever I have to do I have to do it fast
this time though, it really caught me off guard

All the things that need to be done and more
I never saw this chance coming at me like that
and now I have to be even faster than before
if I really want to keep wearing the winner’s hat

Not sure if what I ‘m doing is at all the right thing
as always we take it as it goes and just go with it
no matter how hard or easy it is what life will bring
consistency is the key, I know that, I ‘ve seen it

Time is not Enough

Nobody told me when I was young
that as I get older time is not enough
and I could not foresee this like the rest
I realize this now that I ‘m part of the test

It’s hard to maintain consistency now
there is no time but I can manage somehow
of all the things that show up all the time
I tend to keep the ones that keep me alive

The problem with this I cannot keep up
no matter how much I try I always end up
falling short of time and a little bit behind
and this messes up with my tireless mind

It’s also hard to say no when there’s a tease
DOs and WANTs of the past I can now please
and when these come into the game again
the mind can resist yet the heart will not refrain

Some people say it’s a matter of choice
and that’s always the catch nobody enjoys
it’s really hard to manage and do all things you love
you have to choose only a few as time is not enough

The Last Walk XI – Calm as you Are

Eleven years since then
not going to forget
friends now everywhere
calm as you were

Last walk back in my mind
it took a break for a while
felt like something missing
a busy day’s boring meeting

A very calm yet cold day
it ends with a concert yay
the plan of that day in the past
is still alive and it will last

The promise made long ago
still has a long way to go
a solid well thought idea
that has evolved year by year

I should go now and begin
what the last walk got us in
calm as you were back then
calm as you are now my friend

Cancellation

I ‘ve been thinking about it for long
sooner or later I got to finish the song
it’s been ages since I have started it
along with other projects that delayed it

Thinking that in order to complete this
it doesn’t have to be the bee’s knees
then again I need to cancel other things
to make the time to rock those strings

The tough thing to do is to decide what
can I put aside an existing project that
has been in the wait for a very long time
and nothing shows it will reach its prime

The reasonable thing to do is cancellation
but these projects are my mind’s salvation
putting it aside will probably do the trick
give it a second chance, let it be a future pick

Wishful Thinking

Eventually there will be progress
far from anything you ‘ve ever seen
artificial intelligence, virus, soldiers
scare you more you ‘ve ever been

Now that we are trying to be our best
things show up to remind us we are not
and while this one gets us all stressed
we ‘ll manage to be on top as we were taught

You may be calling this wishful thinking
as it focuses on progress and beyond that
however it might become quite misleading
and lose the argument to an AI chat

Technology is moving on quite fast
progress is inevitable which is good and bad
the future we talked about is here at last
the management of it though seems quite hard

The Way Forward

Words have no meaning
when people do not understand them
same as a bird in the evening
making noises above them

It took years of hard work
making it difficult to change
if you don’t like it just don’t
listen to it and turn the page

Of all the languages we speak
there’s one that has no sound
but without it how do you think?
how do your thoughts form or come out loud?

Fundamental questions on the rise
no time to think about them now
make me see with your own eyes
the best way forward somehow
