The Calm Urgency Lyrics

These are days of a century nothing new to humanity

I'm encouraged when I read of friends in reflection getting past the insanity

It's scary and soothing disquieting and uplifting yes all this at the same time

What was important in yesterday's reality

May seem distant in the new timeline new timeline

These are days of a millennia nothing new to humanity

What I see is refreshing that gets me past the vanity and profanity

There's a new path that takes you right on down the way to smell the flowers

That rat race replaced at a snail's pace feeling life empowered

Indeed time to step back and take a good look around

Indeed time to step back breathe never to step down

You can buy into the hysteria or you can just be aware

You can run from the moment or you can apply due diligence in self-care

You can abandon all you know to be good with outside influence

Or you can breathe in the air and share in the transgressive confluence

You can scream apocalyptic or you can sing in harmony

You can worry about the future or find balance in the calm urgency

Times as these are defining no doubt you are the solvent or you are the glue

The greater the storm the brighter the rainbow awaiting with reverential hue
