Walking down the boardwalk

With the sun in my eyes

Listening to the parrots talk

Looking for some good advice

Moving down to the water

Touching the smooth sand

Praying at nature’s altar

To give me a helping hand

I keep on roaming

Through some narrow streets

Searching for a moment

Something devoid of deceit

Fear of never returning

To who I used to be

Is slowly stirring

And I feel like a nobody

Dreaming of a life that’s free

Where there’s no more doubt

Of where I’m supposed to be

Or when I should get out

So I tend to my vices again

The old ways to trick the mind

To refrain from the mundane

To leave the world behind

And when I free my soul

Everything seems so clear

When you lose control

There’s no time for fear
