Grandma’s Rocket Poem

[Intro: D. Candelario]
The sun sets in the west, but what of the 12 suns?
We live on this small axis and also in a plethora of platforms
This black mass above us holds the keys
Up there lives beauty beyond all comprehension, but also destruction
When your time on earth comes to an end; only then will you see - we are the creators, we are one in the same
Go forth, exist my child

[Verse 1]
Dear child, I wanna tell you about a trip I had
Way back when I met this guy in outer space
Took me to thе corner of the universе
Blew my mind when I saw my creators face

Wanna put your handset down and turn your attention upwards
You're nothing but an electron child
Just waiting for release

[Chorus]
Grandma's rocket poem
A cautionary tale
But it's more about a full life lived
She walked into a portal to the cosmos

Grandma's rocket poem
Run rings around Saturn
Jump ship when you get to the 5th dimension
A real life Jane Jetson

[Verse 2]
I was young once, I used to hunt in the woods
Under the precipice is where I found my glowing door
Shot through the threads of space and time
My poor mother's embrace I'm not gonna feel no more

Hope for an all-seeing eye
Up there in the darkness
When you're searching through the sky
The feeling is heartless, heartless

[Chorus]
