Sandrevan Lullaby/Lifestyles
Rodriguez

The generals hate holidays
Others shoot up to chase the sun blues away
Another store front church is opened
Sea of neon lights, a boxer his shadow fights
Soldier tired and sailor broken

Winter's asleep at my window
Cold wind waits at my door
She asks me up to her place
But I won't be down anymore

Judges with metermaid hearts
Order super market justice starts
Frozen children inner city
Walkers in the paper rain
Waiting for those knights that never came
The hi-jacked trying so hard to be pretty

Night rains tap at my window
Winds of my thoughts passing by
She laughed when I tried to tell her
Hello only ends in goodbye

America gains another pound
Only time will bring some people around
Idols and flags are slowly melting
Another shower of rice
To pair it for some will suffice
The mouthful asks for second helpings

Moonshine pours through my window
The night puts it's laughter away
Clouds that pierce the illusion
That tomorrow would be as yesterday

Wise words from Denzel Washington that hit deeper the older you get:
"These days, everyone wants to get there fast. But I’ve learned that what truly matters… takes time."
There are no shortcuts that don’t cost double later.
If you have to force something to fit — it probably wasn’t meant for you.
I’ve seen people rise quickly… only to crash hard because they had no roots.
Success doesn’t hold you up. Character does.
It’s not about the noise you make — it’s about the quiet respect you earn.
I’d rather move slowly, with intention, than race blindly just to keep up.
Because when you know who you are, you don’t run —
you walk with purpose.
And when something is truly meant for you…
you don’t have to chase it.
It finds you — in peace.
— Denzel Washington
