The Ron Rude Renaissance - Midnight Shadow lyrics

"Hello. This is Destiny calling. I just wanna remind you that you've got a date with me. Oh, and one more thing. Answer your f**ing phone!" I've got something to give to you I've got some love for you, that I'm deploying But hey, world, it's a different kind of love To the kind of love that you're used to enjoying I'm down here on the street with the junkies and the sad buskers And the fire jugglers and the s** workers and the poor And there's a spirit here and I think I've found something Even among the homeless who sleep on the foreshore Let's crank it up for real, Midnight Shadow Lead us all up the stairs, Longbow Drawn And we shall not neglect our souls, Thunder Echo Take us to the mountaintop, Moonlit Dawn" And there was a woman who filled my house with love and food She was the saint of sunny Saint K. Handing out two dollar coins to all the sad people She gave all that she had to give, and then she went away She went to her war torn homeland To support her people, in their hour of need So I'd like you to take a break from thinking about yourself And look at my angel of mercy and then let yourself bleed And if you are sick, or mentally ill, or disabled Or just if your dreams have been shattered again and again Then I love you and it's from deep in my heart And I want to speak to you about the beginning and the end There's a rule: nothing comes before something And nothing, is where it all begins What we have to do is grant ourselves agency Yesterday we were beggars but tomorrow we are gonna be kings I'm human, I'm vulnerable I've made the same mistakes Over, and over again But I'm honest, I'm worthwhile I'm not a worthless loser And I believe that I can do anything I'm not listening to the voice That tells me that I'm useless And that I've got to live a broken life of shame I'm listening to my higher self That's telling me my destiny And giving me a much higher aim Nothing comes before something (Let's crank it up for real) Nothing comes before something (Lead us all up the stairs) Nothing comes before something (And we shall not neglect our souls) Nothing comes before something (Take us to the mountaintop) Destiny calling From the mountaintop Answer the f**ing phone "You've got me!.. Are you MY destiny? Oh, really? I really want to embrace you! Say, do you like nachos? I know this great little place. They ice the beer gla**es. And if it's quiet after 11 they let you smoke"
