The Instrument

 The body is an instrument
With notes and bends
And increments

Tune your mind
With the time of day
Adjust to a schedule
Making room for play

The body is an instrument
Be the wind
Feel
Rise and descend

It was difficult at the start
The road was hard
But perseverance and will
Made dreams become real

Now imagination and focus
Redeem the purpose
From the tip of the tongue
There’s new songs to be sung

The body is an instrument
Bring ease and please
With harmonic dissonance

With touch and style
To dare display
As personality and wit
Lead the way
Listen loud
Before you think 
Do you want to know
The right way?
To live with reason
Continuously breathin'
And perfect your art
How do you say?
Build a path
Do the math
Execute with precision
Having made a decision
Make the tuning
In essence soothing
And live to be right
Like there is no other way

The body is an instrument
Get up to a start
The differences part
There are so many tunings
Find the path that is soothing
Learn to love it
And live to play
