Candy Store

Sure fire way to get in the candy store
The corners lit, the music’s playing and everyone wants in
However the doors locked, lights off, but the sign says open

You know that perception curses deliverance and deliberately challenges faith?
What delusion confiscates your thoughts and strategically develops conception?
Interesting how time and experience conjures up character to assume the final answer
Don’t concur while the understanding is still suspect
The definition doesn’t hold substance
Let me continue

The corners lit, the music’s playing and everyone wants in
It’s Interesting how visibility creates awareness, but being aware means
Nothing without intent
I’ve seen men fail, woman worn down and children forgotten
My action toward them varied, but sad none the less
Ooh how Time has introduced experiences that I’ve chose to respond to
In which I’ve decided my course
better yet appealed the concourse of pre-determined characteristics for each situation

Isn’t it evident, the want to become what
At one time discussed you
You now define as loving, caring and giving
But defined by peers and loved ones as
Hatful, foul tempered and lazy
Interesting how blind many are to the candy store that’s really being feigned for
Many want in, but the doors locked for a reason

The lights are off and the sign shines bright, open
You know it’s interesting
Just as we’re built up, we become psychic to
Open means walk in, a locked door mean closed and lights off means complete, done, over
But my spirit says knock

For I’ve notice the down fall of knowledge and this established the ability to
Conjure my wisdom for the answer
For my candy’s not your candy
My character’s not your character
But my wisdom can be your wisdom and you can have YOUR candy
By simply conjuring up the ability to step into security and
Non strategically assume the action of knocking
Not only physically
but spiritually
