Heaven Will Glow

Oh how my spirit is groaning
And the tension round about me is mounting
It is the feelings that you get when you
Passion is running high and 
you want to leap and touch the sky
I want to reach out and touch someone
But the breezy evening is propelling me along
With my hands clasps and my eyes close 
I can see you standing behind the door
I have been on the go for many years
And your presence is drawing me near
And when my Adrenalin is flowing 
And my energy is rolling I will shake
The dust from underneath my feet
And wait until the battle is complete
The weather is tossing to and fro
The skies are getting dark and low 
And the wind is prowling around like a shark
It is Saturday and my courage is baking
The scent of jerk chicken is floating in air
And there is no more courage to spare
I can feel something cooking 
And I see my destiny stirring 
I have been held bondage on this island
For many months and I just could not have fun
The music is playing from all sides
Stirring nerves, disturbing sleep
And sending me out into the street
It is searching for a passion that is very deep
I care;  but you don’t  care 
Dear to touch me, dear to hold me
Dear to control, me dear to hurt me
If I knew what I was fighting for
 I would have gotten my break through
Every day the scene keep changing
And the story keeps growing
I find myself in the middle of it
 yet I am not a part of it
I am surrounding by people from every side
While they try to take me for a ride
No one wants to tell me what is going on
I have been riding and floating
 on unknown waves for too long
 And I have been anticipating your coming for many days
One crew comes and go 
and every crew that comes
In town is wearing a different gown
Now I know that the heavens will glow
When the devil surrenders and goes.
The night sky is falling and my spirit is burning
I have searched the universe far and near
But the thing that I am looking for is not there
The lime and the light the spirit and the flight
Sometimes it feels like a deja vu 
And I analyze it through and through
I want to reach out and touch someone
because I am hoping to reach the promise land
Something is making my heart troubled
But hope is making it feel like a doubled
If anyone had told me that it would be so
I would have gotten up and go
I have been trying to go since I got here
But everywhere I turn I am surrounded
But the Gods have finally heard my innate cry
And they are positioned to pull me through the sky
I am waiting for you to take me home
The people will celebrate 
When heavens open the big gate
The battle will be complete
When victory march through the street
