Reality an Elusive Dream Still
Reality an Elusive Dream Still
by: Manuel Santos de Leon
I am but a dream, living in reality
Steadfast in faith, leading to my destiny
Someone is up there, my Lord my security
Who will be against, if God has my liberty
Now is the time, forget about the bad of the past
Good memories, be always there to last
Let's celebrate life, the real thing to have
With our family, we all truly loved
Though we made wrong we really can not control
Someone regrets, it's ok to let it roll
Someone is not, it's just fine to playing role
What truly matters, all of us has a goal
But what about it, heaven is real
Not just a movie, you watch in reel
Are you ready to surrender everything like a deal?
To our Supreme One whose abundance none could steal
We all know to live in this world is full of happiness
But not a joy could compensate what is greatness
To our Loving Father whose love and care is priceless
The truth is there anyway it's nonetheless
Like the water in the river free flowing stream
Life is come and go and what left is a dream
Keep changing from whose mind it is instill
It is but a reality an elusive dream still.
