Mamaw
My mamaw always said
Have a place for every thing
Put everything in its place
And live like a king
If you keep your house in order
Then your mind will be ordered too
Then everything will be OK
You’ll have a clear view
When your view is clear
You’ll see the path
That’s laid before you
And then you can see clearly
What you should do
And then you avoid the missteps
That take you off your path
1 foot in front of the other
Don’t screw up the math
It really is quite simple
But some try to complicate it
One step forward two steps back
And the light is always shaded
But when we do see clearly
And the path is obvious
Disorder does evaporate
And the truth can see us
Once the light of truth
Illuminates your steps
Your purpose becomes clear
And you can reach into the depths
And then this world it opens up
It cracks just like an egg
You can see the lock and key
From birth until your death
And then there will be a place
A place for everything
And everything will be in its place
And you’ll live like a king
