THE MASTER IS TIME TO EVERY DRUMMER
TIME IS A DRUMMER'S MASTER...
I am not a fan of sitting around,
time passes without a sound.
When I rise in the morning,
I stand firm as I plant my feet.
I can feel the cosmos shift,
the universe cannot resist
swaying in my direction we make a connection.
I have control over this day,
I know just how it is going to play out without a doubt
Dispelling the negative as I say it out loud…
OUT LOUD! OUT LOUD! I give my words power.
From the back of my throat to the tip of my tongue
As each word rolls out
the energy cuts through a dark and heavy haze
Diminishing the lingering effects of a phase.
There is no time to beat the ground with my fists,
acknowledging shackles on my feet and wrists.
I placed them there myself in a time of confusion,
having found the keys to stretch free I shatter all illusions.
Looking in the mirror pieces I cannot deny my reflection
I do not speak of the physical manifestation
or your eyes perception.
I speak of the divine energy, the real me, the root of my being,
LOVE,COMPASSION,PEACE AND JOY. I AM HAPPY TO CELEBRATE
MY 65th BIRTHDAY WITH ALL OF YOU THIS SUNDAY, DEC. 4th
AND I HOPE THAT MY WORDS AND MUSIC TOUCH YOUR INSIDES
DEEPLY, BECAUSE YOU ALL ARE WHO I TRULY CARE ABOUT, MY FAMILY,
MY FRIENDS AND ALL THE MUSICAL ARTISTS OF THE WORLD, SPREADING,
THE MESSAGE OF GIVING, NOT TAKING, AND RECEIVING JOY KNOWING
YOU'VE MADE OTHERS HAPPY!
LOVE ALWAYS and ALWAYS LOVE,
I AM GRATEFUL FOR ALL OF MY FRIENDS,
HABIB
