Pursuit of Happyness...

Far away in the distant land,
The Sun shines brighter than here,
You don't seem to have been there,
But you are sure to know

You travel to that distant point,
Which made you feel so low,
Now you see another one,
Which has an even brighter glow

Still passionate, vision ahead,
The path is crooked, your mind is set,
Bag full of sunshine, bread and stick,
Treading on the Alchemist's trick

You reach the junction, the green is gone,
It's like the one before,
You wished you'd known

Will is brittle, but you're strong,
Know you ain't right, neither is it wrong,
Last gasp of courage, body and soul,
Set out for that final goal

This has to be it, no further trick,
Joy and Happiness, dearly missed,

Oh' Lord
I've travelled the world and seven seas
The nine planets, days and weeks,
Where I can I find it that makes me smile
The last I remember, when I was a child

Dear Son,
Firstly, you're still a child,
In the Lord's eyes you're still wise,
Go, return to that place you started from,
Everything's there what you're looking for,
Greed and jealousy I did not provide,
Contentment, one should strive

Sorry Lord, but I am weak,
Peace, I know now, resides in my plea,
I'll spread this message through this song,
Your light and Man's wrong
