I AM ON THE MOVE

Do not trouble me while on my way
Seriously bent to have it sway
If only you will grant my groove
Watch then as I make my move

Endangered by the crisis aside
Where the birds enjoy their stride
Sitting quietly to get a prove
Deciding to make a move

Hopes riddled with holes
Were the struggles of frustrated roles
Even then singing beside me a dove
Confused about whether to join the move

Important though it looks like
To embark on an ending strike
Peasants sitting on a hot stove
How I wish I am on the move

Then I stopped to look around
Things I see make the more confound
Just then I felt that to love
Is as good as when on the move

Manhunt as the day runs by
Has been approved I shall not lie
The throne makes himself so above
To others who can only move

Even when the earthquakes and shakes
Even when all things become fakes
Even when the clock refuses to move
Watch me, I am on the move
