Clockwork rules 


Life tears away at a breakneck pace.
Though Winter stalls in a frozen space,
And Autumn leaves seem to pause the show,
The Spring and Summer make the engines glow.
They compensate for the drag and delay,
Speeding up the light of day.

Not long ago, I paid no mind
To the fleeting nature of the grind.
Everything happens for the very first time.

And no, I don’t reckon it’s bleak or wrong.
It’s just the rhythm of the living song.
I hold no grief for the chances missed,
Or the unfinished lips I never kissed.
I was merely a lad, it was natural then.
But now I’m wary of the how and when.
I treat the seconds with a solemn care,
Breathing in the thinning air.

Time.
It spins so fast, a blurred display,
I check the hands throughout the day.
Every half hour, I watch it climb,
And I shout out to the face of Time:
"Oi! Where you rushing to?
Slam on the brakes! See it through!"
But it turns a deaf ear to my plea,
It hasn't got a word for me.
I have to learn to play the game,
By rules that I can never tame.



It’s curious to speak with the younger crowd,
Reflections of me, but slightly too loud.
Just twenty years lost in the haze,
They seem much sharper than in my days.
Yet the same emotions, the same mistakes,
The same reckless view of the time it takes.

No.
I can’t dissuade them, it’s no use.
Wisdom requires a longer truce.
It comes later, as it always must.
It’s their life, and their time to trust.
They’ll spend it how they think is right,
We only offer sparks of light.

Time.
It spins so fast, a blurred display,
I check the hands throughout the day.
Every half hour, I watch it climb,
And I shout out to the face of Time:
"Oi! Where you rushing to?
Slam on the brakes! See it through!"
But it turns a deaf ear to my plea,
It hasn't got a word for me.
I have to learn to play the game,
By rules that I can never tame.



We and they are from different spheres,
Separated by the shifting years.
And that is beautiful, in its way.
Youth is meant to go astray,
To make mistakes within reason’s bound.
We just watch the clock go round.
Watching the new generation rise,
With a weary smile in our eyes.

I’m certain they’ll be better than us.
They’ll cut through the noise and the fuss.
They’ll find a way to master the chime.
They’ll find a better use for Time.

Karma or destiny?


Life, due to circumstance, shows us how karma works.

Some have come to believe, while others simply use the word.
In any case, the outcome is the same.

Do good, receive a reward.
Do evil, receive a punishment.

However, sometimes you want to take a closer look at life.
Because...

One receives a successful business as an inheritance.
Well, go ahead!
Cards, drugs, debts.
Another receives debts as an inheritance.
And so?
Hard work, the school of life, success.

This doesn't mean every rich man's son will fall,
Or that everyone who was unlucky will rise.
And more often than not, life shows that if you’ve got a proper safety net,
It’s easier to move through life.

But you still need to put a shift in, mate.
Without effort, what the envious will call karma might happen.
They will certainly remind you.

One receives a successful business as an inheritance.
Well, go ahead!
Cards, drugs, debts.
Another receives debts as an inheritance.
And so?
Hard work, the school of life, success.

I never envied the princes.
I’ve always had to graft for a living myself.
I am grateful to my parents for what they gave me.
For a simple guy from the neighbourhood, it was probably enough.

I don't believe in karma, but the concept is not bad.
If you can help the needy, just help, don't think about a return.
But someday you might be truly glad for the reciprocal actions.

Lifetime lie 



Let’s just bury your lie by closing our eyes.
There's truly no alternative now.
It’s your fault, you see.
I’ve been trying to forgive you.
But this wound hits my ego too keen.
I feel absolutely shattered.
I can’t bear our gaze to ever convene.
Your tears and your pleading don’t give me pleasure.
Answer yourself, is he any better, at all?
Was any of this worth your poor measure?
Bitch!
I’m trapped in this vicious circle, the angels descended from Heaven, yet I’m the demon in their midst.
A lightning strike on the very spot where I stand, not once, but a hundred times.
Your betrayal stings right at my sense of pride.
But my feelings won't let me leave you on the other side.
It’s a dead-end, a cruel tie.
This is pain for an age, a lifetime lie.
I tried to make the best of it.
But the truth just feels like cold cement.
Every whisper now is a fractured sentiment.
And I cannot unsee what you meant.
Did you always feel that something was missing in your heart?
Why did you keep silent from the very start?
I lived for you, with every single part.
And what happens now, where do we take this art?
How absurd and silly, they say a man is monogamous by design.
And this is the final score. My control, refined.
And your betrayal of what was meant to be mine.
Wailing, you whisper, “Just kill me, I deserve my due.”
But I don’t wish death upon you, I simply do not.
I just wish to leave, to flee, to sink through the earth to escape this rot.
Let’s just bury your lie by closing our eyes.
I’m trapped in this vicious circle, the angels descended from Heaven, yet I’m the demon in their midst.
A lightning strike on the very spot where I stand, not once, but a hundred times.
Your betrayal stings right at my sense of pride.
But my feelings won't let me leave you on the other side.
It’s a dead-end, a cruel tie.
This is pain for an age, a lifetime lie.
Let’s just bury your lie by closing our eyes.

Hey mates! 


It's a weird kind of thing, innit? This mate business. One minute you'd proper go the distance for them, do all sorts of daft shit, right? But it's a must. How else are you gonna crack on? It's just that type of connection between people. Yeah, yeah, bruv! That's what they call this thing. We all have each other's backs. Loads of smiles. No dramas, pal. But the minute you ask for some tiny, piss-easy favour, yeah? Everyone's looking at their shoes, mate. They say, "Yeah, course we'll sort it." "We get it, proper crucial for you." Then they vanish like a fart in the wind, the cheeky bastards. And yet, the mate-ship just carries on. What's the bloody difficulty in doing a titchy request? It's a right mystery to me, init. I get that maybe I won't ever ask for a mad favour like that. But seriously, mate, sometimes it’s just a single bloody click on a mouse. What's the principle there? We’re all on the same team! But the minute you ask for some tiny, piss-easy favour, yeah? Everyone's looking at their shoes, mate. They say, "Yeah, course we'll sort it." "We get it, proper crucial for you." Then they vanish like a fart in the wind, the cheeky bastards. And yet, the mate-ship just carries on. I know for a fact this ain't a hassle for you. But I swear down, I wanna know what makes you tick... You'll help me out with a big one, a proper headache, but giving a thumbs up is suddenly a mission. I'm absolutely baffled. I dream of the day you need that same small favour. Maybe then I'll get the plot. But I promise you this. I'm gonna force myself to sort that shit out for you. 'Cause it's only a trifle for me, the one who gets asked. But for the one asking? That's the whole damn world.

Hey Mates!.mp3
