Lyrics Verse one: We'll never really notice to much, until we take time to notice/ from this observation deck I inspect life's opus/ it takes focus ,the only borders are the corners of my vision in a vignette yet the fullness/ pulls it out the portrait to show us what's important /reporters record then report what normal is... but these are not orders ,we are absorbers and how we perceive could lead to what we believe we need enormous, shifts in the paradigm if these pairs of eyes are blind / to gorgeous moments about to unfold in perfect time , like when dirt and grime are wiped away it just might display /what's been there the whole time it's just right away ,we may not see due to the view were used to seeing through /a lifetime got a ripped mind to renew/ cause maybe it grew before it aged and threw perception out of place, now I'm just learning to live in the now ,to let it amaze. chorus: I'm trying to pay attention ,trying not to get so distracted but there so much stimulation theres way to much racket , match it with reality thats right in front of me /it doesn't compare with what's currently here /and as I close my eyes I opened up to the possibility that killing it every day could stray from life filling me/ rebuild me , to see with vision so clear/ to see the present is a present and it's right here. Verse two: take the time to smile at a senior citizen / cause in a little while don't know if I'll we'll ever see them again /my seed is my pen, I plant it in composition books / keeps me calm to observe , listen and look , at my surroundings astounding analytical thoughts every day life captured like photography shots /photographic plots ,playing out inside my mind/ perfect material to form lyrical rhyme/ we grind day in and day out/ let's not stay out , of the cinematic show were living in before it plays out/ and the credits get run/ we ask what have we done /to enjoy this piece of art ,so start each day with both lungs /inhaling the present because the present is a present /take time to hold a baby maybe even kiss it /beginning rekindling love for life we are blessed here to visit / true wealth is intrinsic blink once, and we could miss it. chorus repeats.
