Fire Cracker There are many things I'd like to be There are many lives I'd like to live Above all I'd like to feel free To live and love, to forgive A state of mind haunts my soul One unusual wish torments my mind To build my energy so it can explode I wish I were a firecracker of some kind I'd light the sky with flames of love I'd burn away the troubles of the world People could look down, around and above To know sunshine, clouds, see stars unfurl I'd arouse curiosity in children I'd teach them what controlled energy can do I'd teach them how music can enfold them I'd teach them to understand things old and new I'd like to be a firecracker, and make my mark in time With a loving companion as a backer, I'd explode with love in a life sublime Though you may not see love, I'll know As a firecracker, I could make it so.
