How can I be so strong
Yet be so weak
Always striving to be on top
Yet always facing defeat
Constantly fighting my urges
To take it back to the streets
Contemplating if this life I live
Is the life for me
One thing I know for sure
My heart never skips a beat
I listen to my inner voice when it speaks
It said there is no reason to go back to the streets
Start fresh, climb to the peak
Look out for those who are weak
Keep moving forward down this new street
Over coming everything, even defeats
Contemplating if this life I live is the life for me
Or is there something else that the universe has in store for me
My choices are my decisions or are they my destiny
Will I always stand alone or will someone stand next to me
Its these types of questions that add to life’s complexity
One thing leads to another and eventually I start to see
All my emotions building up inside of me
They take control of my mind, unfortunately
Creating an entirely new destiny
That is only if I allow them to get the best of me
My thoughts and actions burst out of control
Describing my views towards society as a whole
Never do I ask the universe for control
I have accepted who I am and who I want to be, an old soul
Like a thorn in a rose bush I poke holes
My individuality, like a night light, glows
My perceptions are my reality
I’m always at home
Cut from a different fabric, then sown
Put these words out there to loan
A piece of mind for those who feel alone
I’ll walk the path with you until you make it home
