This is for my favorite band, the human beings
The faithful, the graceful, the tragic and the classic
The evidence of things unseen,
The book of light,
The mansions of the moon,
The bones of fir'aoun,
Recently discovered and everything but new
The doubters' doubts about it never made it untrue
Life, the gift, peace after pressure,
Can't remember how you came and wanna bet on how you'll еxit
From the start, the only thing certain is thе end
Promised to all and none know not when
Heartbreak from yesterday is a fret for tomorrow
And leave today filled with anxiety and hollow
If you pray don't worry, and if you worry don't pray
I got that from Umi, it's a poem I heard her say
From the tall palace walls, to the mean teeth streets
I hope you get what you want and that you want what you need, Ameen.
So much beauty we forget to be reminded
That you can be anywhere and find it
So much beauty we forget then get reminded
That you can be anywhere, everywhere, and find it
Mashallah
