I am as old as time

Like a fine wine refined

I’ve seen all sorts of things

You could never begin

To imagine or know

I am an ancient soul

Seen empires rise 

and then watched them all fall.

I am astral 

I am space 

True universal grace

Seen stars born 

and explode

Creating us all.

I’ve seen wars being fought

I’ve seen hatred

Seen slaves

I’ve seen humanity through the time misbehave

Yet as old as I am the thing I’ve seen most

Is the violence, greed and power

Of which men seem to boast

But I’ve yet to see love rise up and conquer all this

Yet to see peace truly exist

So I hope in my lifespan

Humanity can fix this

And rise up divinely 

And just resist

The negative forces of darkness so blind

And start using love to redefine 

Our species as one race

Unified as a whole

And put back some light into this ancient soul.
