I wrote this late last year while going through a pretty bad time mentally and emotionally. What do us songwriters do? We write, we exorcise the demons. Therapy.

I was inspired naming it with this article Rhino

words:

Shine a light upon my mountain

But I’m still filling up on dread

World hovers on my shoulders

The past, the present the future then I’m dead

 

Release, release Rhinos

 

Unreachable devastation

The Meditation said

To look outside my inner anger

See what Buddha said

 

I’m making up preservation

I’m talking to the wise

The mechanics of coping

Are practiced many times

 

When I’m a lone with the demons

 

I set in motion lots of dealing

On my darkest days

My instruments of adjustment

Stop mental state delays
