People also leave presence in a place even when they are no longer there.

To Be Remembered

When the lord takes me away,
And I am no longer with you,
To share the pleasures of today,
Remember I will always be with you.

When my footsteps can't be trace,
Let my spirit in flight go free,
To find its own precious place,
For the soul to unites with destiny.

And leave a testimony to witness,
In the presence of those still alive,
To be remembered always,
For the living treasures God gave.

Are to be shared among the people,
And to be swept up in ashes and dust,
Till time consume every evil,
And we are gathered to him at last.

Leave Those Cranky People Alone

It is best to leave those cranky alone.
It pays to leave those cranky people alone.

Leave those cranky people,
Seeking nothing but an evil.
You,
Just...
Leave those cranky people alone!

When you answer your telephone,
To stop a constant ringing.
Just leave those cranky people alone.

And all you hear is whining,
With a blues heard singing.
Just,
Leave those cranky people alone.
It pays to leave those cranky people alone.
It is best to leave those cranky...
Alone.

Don't condone it.
Leave those people alone.

Don't you try to own it!
Leave those people alone.

Don't,
Condone it.
Leave those people alone.

Don't you try to even own it!
Leave those people alone.

When nothing but complaints,
Drop out of their mouths.
Just,
Leave those cranky people alone.
It is best to leave those cranky alone.
It pays to leave those cranky...
Alone.

Keep your mind freed from heating.
Leave those people alone.
Don't you dare accept their beating.
Leave those people alone.
When you feel a headache brewing,
And you don't know what to do.
Hey..
Leave those cranky people alone!

In the morning when the Sun comes,
Shining on you bright!
Don't you turn away to get it out of your sight,
No!

Leave those cranky people alone.
Yes!

You've got to leave those cranky people alone.
Yes! Yes!

Leave those cranky people alone.
Yes!

You've got to leave those cranky people alone.
Yes! Yes!

Leave those cranky people alone!

In the morning when the Sun comes,
Shining on you bright!
Don't you turn away to get it out of your sight,
No!

Leave those cranky people alone.
Yes!

You've got to leave those cranky people alone.
Yes! Yes!

Leave those cranky people alone.
Yes!

You've got to leave those cranky people alone.
Yes! Yes!

Leave those cranky people alone!

My Hometown

Jersey City is where I was born
I woke up to see many a dawns

It's not a bad city, it was a place to live
But there were many times it didn't forgive

The streets were tough, the winter's cold
It s city you can embrace, but one you can never hold

The streets will own you and rule you
There's not too much one can do

After some years you'll be ready to leave
It will no longer have the things you need

That's when you know it's time to leave
Because in the city you can longer believe

Now people grow up there and decide to stay
But so many many more just go a different way

I did not notice that you are still there

Though you know it is me
That I am here a longer time
ahead of you
]
When you arrive
You pretend that
There is no
Presence of me
]

Do you love my absence?
Do you want me
To leave
Or you simply
Want a proof of your importance
]

That I notice you are here
And that it should be
Me first to say hello
to you
]

You always doubt my presence
My unequivocal
Love
]

Will it be you or her?
Or you and
Her?

]

Or just you
It is something till today
An equivocation

Equipoised.

A word of trust

How I remember your presence with me

Those memories are now haunting me

The room so empty and none I find

Why did you leave me so far behind?

I no longer remain to sweep the floor

And collect the trash you left at the door

Looking at the windowpanes now covered with dust

Makes me feel I will no longer trust

For when things look blur you no longer see

An image so clear that could hardly be

But in this world it's all the same

Who to trust and who to blame?

Dispossesion

My coat, leave behind my coat and my belt,
Leave behind my coat and all that,
I don't want it back...
It's called undertown and it's over that way.
Some people leave in the morning,
Some people when they go to bed.
Inside, it's been rotting for a long time now,
Ever since I found out
I? not to blame if I get left out.
My coat, leave behind the looks, magazines and books.
Don't want it back.
We're going away, we're dropping the lot.
We'll take another tack if we ever get stopped.
It's the last plan we made before we came unglued.
Everything I touch is on the blink.
Gotta find a place to land, find a place to think.
Who are you people?

Psalm 68

Let God arise and His enemies be scattered
Who dares to stand in this day?
My troubles melt like wax in the presence of the Lord
Like smoke in the wind, they are blown away

Who shall extol Him who rides upon the clouds?
We shall lift His name on high
We shall lift up our eyes to where our help come from
We shall see His majesty in the sky

The heavens dropp rain at the presence of God
It falls upon a dry and thirsty land
You sustain your people in the midst of their plight
You lead them by your righteous right hand

When I am low in my troubles and darkness covers me
And the messenger, its bad news that he brings
I will call upon my God and arise again once more
Like a dove with silver sprinkled on its wings

Zion you are small, as far as mountains go
To look at you no one could ever tell
That this would be the place, of power and of grace
This would be the place that God would dwell

So stand up child of God, remember who you are
Your delivered, your redeemed, you've been set free
No longer slaves to sin, sanctified deep within
You'll reign with Christ the King eternally

No Longer Afraid!

the day you
wake up and realize...
you no longer have
any reason to pretend,
that you have nothing
of value left to lose,
that you cant change the past...

that the people that love you,
love you in spite of yourself.
that the people you hate
are just reflections of you.
that life cant be possessed,
and is not about possessing.
that what you leave behind
is your heart... nothing more!

that death is not the enemy,
not the end, but comes to all...
then you become...
no longer afraid!

Leave Them. Leave Them Alone

When people are immuned,
To get a message that is coming...
Leave them.
Leave them alone.
When people stubbornly refuse to hear a message,
Others hear...
Just leave them,
Alone on their own.

Too many have been fitted to be limited!
So leave them.
Leave them alone.
Too many have been gifted with the flapping of lips.
So leave them.
Leave them alone.

When people are immuned,
To get a message that is coming...
Just leave them.
Leave them alone.
When people rather shuck and jive,
To realize their own survival...
Just leave them,
Alone on their own.

Too many wish to sit and make a game of it.
So leave them.
Leave them alone.
Too many rather drift and not take benefit,
So leave them...
Leave them alone.

Fools are taking numbers just to stand and wait.
So leave them.
Leave them alone.
Fools like this await for frosting on their cake.
So leave them,
To taste it alone.

Too many wish to sit and make a game of it.
So leave them.
Leave them alone.
Too many rather drift and not take benefit,
So leave them...
Leave them alone.

When people are immuned,
To get a message that is coming...
Just leave them.
Leave them alone.
When people stubbornly refuse to hear a message,
Others hear...
Just leave them,
Alone on their own.
Just leave them.
Leave them alone!

Don't Belong Here

We all have somewhere we belong
I been waiting to know where my place is
I know one place for me and is New Jersey
Coming here change my life so much
I just feel like I
Don’t belong here
I just want to leave here forever
After I made my mistakes
Everything change that I never picture
Will happend and what I have done
I didn’t expect any of this
I never learn from my mistakes and just keep doing
People keep blaming me,
Giving me dirty looks and stared at me
When someone told something to them
Rumors spread about me all the time
It never end and puting me down
I’m so sick of this people and this town
I didn’t mean to do any of this on purpose
I just couldn’t made up my mind
I don’t belong here
These people are jerks and just act nice because
They feel sorry for me
I feel sorry for them too
I’m just annoy and tiring by all this going on
I try and put all my strength into it
There nothing else I can do to make this people
Think different of me
So it best if I leave and leave all this memories behind
That I don’t want to remember
I just feel like I
Don’t belong here

Imprints of You

To have known you even for an instant
To have seen you from afar
To have been graced by your presence
Your smile and your beauty
The sound of your voice reverberating
Soothing and refreshing

To have experienced your absence
And the ensuing darkness
And to have enjoyed the pleasure
Of your presence once again
My mornings suddenly rejuvenated
And you the joy and rejoicing of my life
There at my place of humbling

I depart now with joy having absorbed
The best and beautiful in you
I depart with imprints of you on my soul
Vestiges of your presence around me
And still the joy and rejoicing of my heart
As I look back to that place of humbling

I Wish

I wish I could leave this place.
Leave the pain and disgrace.
I wish I knew what I did that was so wrong.
Its been like this for so long.

I wish I could run away.
To find a place full of goodness and lay.
Lay there and smile at the sun.
Wondering what I have done.

I wish to know why they hate me.
Making me so lonely.
I hate the pain that you gave to me.
Its hurting me you see.

I wish I was dead.
To just lay down in my death bed.
To leave a place of pain and sorrow.
To go of a place with the morrow.

I wish I could just leave.
Just let me go please.
I need to go.
When I'll be back, I don't know

More In An Inescapable Desperation

I'm in no longer with a 'need' for you.
I desire for this bleeding,
To stop my 'wanting'.
You are there in my mind,
Haunting.

I...I...

And I wish to let go!
But nowhere can it be dropped!
In my heart that beats...
Your presence is complete.
Unstoppable...
As if a craving has been started!

I'm in no longer with a 'need' for you.
You are within me.
In every move I take...
My breath is yours!
And there is no escape.

I...I...
I am adoring you!

I once was able to fake your importance.
But now you have become my life!
I'm in no longer with a 'need' for you.
I am more in an inescapable desperation!
Fixed.
And I admit this situation.
Desperate...
But somehow elated!

I...I...
I am adoring you!

I'm in no longer with a 'need' for you.
You are within me.
In every move I take...
My breath is yours!
And there is no escape.

I...

Weakened is my wish to let you go.
Weakened I am feeling this...
As if a conflict within goes.

But nowhere can you be dropped!
In my heart that beats...
Your presence is complete.
Unstoppable...
As if a craving has been started!
And I seek for you to feed me.

I...I...
I am adoring you!

I...

Weakened is my wish to let you go!

Our Love, Stronger Than Any Fear

Do you know how lucky you are? Had you been any other,
I say this not merely because you are my children's Mother!
You have shown me though, all I need to see,
I have loved you as I have no other, you too, for me!

You are the love of my life, I need not anything else;
You give me a elevated sense of mine own self!
Love me as you used to and I shall no longer perturbed-
Love me now, as then-as though our love, left undisturbed!

Fear away fear, leave her be-you've no longer a place!
No longer do you hold court over her actions, her mind!
You have left her surely-she has left you behind!
No longer may you, our love, away, chase!

Our love is stronger, still, than is any fear;
My love, with me, whether I am there, or here!

Please Show Me A Way

I’ve been feeling depressed and empty inside
so I’ve come in here to think and hide.
I would like to have a few words with you,
because listening is what you’re supposed to do.

Even though I’ve not been here before,
I can feel your presence and that’s for sure.
You fill this place you’re everywhere
and I’ve been told that you really care.

It maybe too late, but please hear what I say
and if you can’t help I’ll walk away.
I’ve found myself drowning in life’s whirlpool,
because I’ve been so heartless and cruel.

I’ve been evil for most of my living years,
never have regrets or consider tears.
I’ve kicked people when they were down and out
and back stabbed friends without a doubt.

I’ve used people as stepping stones to get up high
and cared not if they suffered or died.
The end result was all that mattered to me
and I lived my life so selfishly.

Now I’ve achieved everything I could ever desire,
but I’m being pulled into a mental mire.
I can no longer go on living my life like this
there must be a way through the evil mist.

Please help me and open my eyes so I can see
how I can make amends for causing misery.
Please give me a direction, which I can follow,
so that I can have peace of mind tomorrow.

Thank you for letting me bear all and talk this through
I’ll now do whatever my conscience tells me to.
I will begin a new life where I no longer take
and try to make up for my every mistake.

They cant tell the floor from the ceiling or the top
And therere other types, they always make you wait
And theyre always the first to say, the state you come from
Leave me, leave me, leave me, leave me, leave me alone
Leave me, leave me, leave me, leave me, leave me alone
Love me, love me, love me, love me, love me forever

And Laughter Fills The Air

And the people played
Catagory, old, no longer...
No longer workers, no longer...
No longer ones with potential
No longer...
Badmington in the park
Peace Park, Shanghai
And laughter fills the air
And a little boy writes
And a little boy plays
The people are happy
Why, oh why do people hide
Why, oh why do people cry
It is the time, happiness
Happiness among the trees
And the trees are happy
And laughter fills the air
And laughter fills the air.

To Heal From A Slow Mending To Grow

If something once strongly felt,
Is no longer there...
Existing to feel naturally,
Even the presence of a hypnotist...
Masquerading as a magician,
Will not be able to restore those natural feelings.
Not to be felt when back at a time remembered,
Those feelings from one's heart were freely given.

When those feelings felt begin to leave,
They do not return to make a reappearance.
Anyone who has experienced this emotionally...
To heal from a slow mending to grow,
Up...
To forgive and forget,
Knows....
Once something is felt to leave, it goes.

Father Dear

What have you left me, father dear?
You left me all you did revere.

The love of music that filled each day
and took the place of childhood play.
The love of books from which you read
that gave me words to fill my head.
The compassion for people who were not like we
that became our friends, which left for me
a respect for all of humanity.

What more could you leave?
What more did I need?
Only the thing that makes the heart bleed,
Your presence.

When It Hurts The Least

I will leave you with tears crawling down my face
I will leave and it will feel like moving to hell from grace
I will leave because i cannot bear your distance
I will leave because life just wont give us a chance

I will leave knowing i have done everything i could do
I will leave owning nothing but our memories and your photo
I will leave with the last bit of pride left in me
I will leave but first i will unlock my heart and set you free

I will leave and it will tear me apart not looking back
I will leave, wave goodbye and my life will slowly turn black
I will leave knowing i was the luckiest victim of your love
I will leave missing every kiss and touch and all i can no longer have

I will leave but i hope you know i am compelled to
I will leave but i will be devistated as i worshiped you
I will leave though it hurts like mad to be forbidden from your sight
I will leave but your lost reply will kill me when i summon you every night
