In judgment I sit in self-love or self-hate
Live in the words of those who stand at my gate
Hold the views of others I choose
And find that I sometimes win more often I lose
Now comes the time that I count to nine
And see that I don’t have to toe your line
Of judgment or being your time on a string
And find that I can let my soul sing
Yes did you see it happen like a bud on a tree
I was that bud that liberated me
I sat in the dew of life love beauty and strife
And saw that I could rebuild my life
Now how did this happen this wondrous thing
It was when I cut those words that sting
Cut them all each one at a time
And found that the ring was only a line
Yes judgement can hold it can keep you small
And then you realize it has no power at all
As that soul tree inside grows it shows the falsity in the reap and sew
Remember that knowledge in seeds can only come from the me the one I know.
We have many depths many twists and turns
And all words from judgment help the way one learns
Now funny thing happened when I no longer heard your voice singing.
I saw the line counted one to nine then set my freedom bells ringing
So now all I ask is I don’t complete the task
Of building a new set of judgment rules
That aids you /me to lose.
