I saw a newborn baby breathing for life
Breathing for air
When I watched as the doctors were saving his innocence
I felt a salty tear drop down my cheek and fall onto my lap
I felt a shudder in my bones and an earthquake in my heart
And the universe continues to expand.
In all its glory we stand.
As I walked around at the mall
I noticed that people were copies of other people
No one really stood out to me
Everyone was running to something or someone
But not doing it for the sake of that something or someone
Because there’s no love
And the universe continues to shrink
In all its glory we stand.
If you saw the things I saw
Through the lens that God created for us to see through
I saw 3 million people stretch to reach a mountain
To make a call
A free call
No dimes involved
The wrinkles and the youth
The hands raised up and the watery eyes
The sincere closed eyes with faces looking up
Up
Nowhere else but up
