Breaking the Mold without Forgetting the Old

My heart to yours

Sometimes life brings with it
Depression and strife
But how we deal
How we turn the wheel
Shows and grows our character
Admire, don't laugh at her
It is not her fault or yours either
Neither you or I
My sky high
Pride
I try to hide
You'll never guess
Where i've been
Then when
You just don't expect
I say next, new cord
I'm bored, Oh Lord
You rescued me from myself
I'm rusty on my dusty shelf
Outgoing boy with this coy undercover
Love one another
Traffic light is a brighter lighter yellow
Just a young fellow
Wave and say hello
It is only polite
On this most wonderful night
She's the most beautiful sight
Why do my songs always go towards her
I'm really not so sure
The slightest vaccine
I'm sick and need a cure
For she's the most beauitful
Thing I have ever seen
I mean chin dropped
My heart skipped and hopped
Flipped and flopped
I try to talk
Attempt a cool walk
But nothing moves
No more rules
Nothing applys
To my arms or my eyes
I can't move I can't speak
She's the girl my heart does seek
I think my knees just went a little weak
Talk about my knees
My heart is on a flying trapees
Hooked on tight to two down hill skis
I wonder what the night will hold
I wonder if I should call or fold
Check or raise
Or is it another phase?

Now for a little wordplay
Listen this day to what I say
Ok one more beat
Take a seat put up your feet
Cool off from the heat
Mix and mingle get ready for my single
I see my style is wild like a little child
With a new toy a little army boy
Where his hair doesn't care
It has a mind of its own
He will be known and thrown
Into reality and creativity
With a little amnesty
To forgive how i live
And give my 10 percent
Rules I've bent packages I've sent
Emotions I rent
How I walked and went
And beat around the bush
Pull and push
Reap and sow
Give and go
Cross court
A little out of sort
Always coming up a little short
I felt out of place
Lacking in grace
Falling to embrace
His loving face
But now the case is not grace
Because it is you and I
It is now my high fly sky dive
When I plummet down from the summet
No more worldly charms
Or painful harms
My life is yours
I'm in your arms

There are moments when this really takes off. They seem to be when the new rhythm/rhyme you are working on get a little slippery, or skip a beat-- the kind of emphasis that catches our attention, even if accidently.

Like these spots:

Then when
You just don't expect
I say next, new cord

Outgoing boy with this coy undercover
Love one another

With a new toy a little army boy
