What are the odds of me living up to my potential
What's essential
About building up credentials
If there isn't any foundation to pour all the cement on
And be stepped on
And be left hovering over a thought that you'd be special
But somewhere along the lines
Someone messed you up inside
And now you're doubting all the things you have in mind
About your life
The Simple rhyming
Wasnt flying
Had to get creative with the words you put in every line
To redesign it
But maybe not
Why would I redesign what I never got
Deepen the plot
But reaching out
Is what I thought I buried
Not as dead as I thought
But what's it carrying
Oh god it's my wants
Now how embarrassing is that
What if I were to make it up to heaven
And god won't let me in saying
I didn't live my life in the profession
That he wrote for me instead
I wasted all my time confessing
What I want to do but didn't do
Ended in depression
Hows that lesson gonna translate if I ever have kids
If they have a dream am I gonna tell them what I did
Ya your daddy didn't go for it
He didn't have the vocal cords
He made a choice to use his voice for nothing and got over it
What's that gonna teach them
Yeah you could live decent
If you work your job and pay your bills forget what you believe in
And what makes you happy might not happen
So it's best to leave it stagnant
Forget all about it and be happy being average
That's a
Passive
Aggressive
Reaction
It's sad when
They want you
Broken
And to live as them
Establish
A passion
Don't ask
Just have it
Don't listen
To anyone
When they
Laugh at it
When they
To anyone
Don't listen
Have it
Don't ask
A passion
Establish
Live as them
Be no one
They want you
Sad when
Reactions
Aggressive
Not passive
That's a
Backward message
How essential is belief
The mystery underneath
Hide your feet unless you want the monster grabbing them in your sleep
But if you never close your eyes will you be able to find your peace
Or the missing part of you that you never knew youd need
How absurd
Is it that worth
Has grown beyond the person
The talent that they work for
Is worthless if the lord
Doesn't think that they deserve it
The lines are getting blurry
For my head my heart is worried
So god you better hurry
Will I get a warning
Before my life is in turmoil
There's more than cynic stored
Inside my porous mind
I'm boiling
Over sides of the pot
There more inside me thats locked
But I don't know if I have got
What it takes to break thoughts
I could lose all of my money and still be a rich man
Withstand
All that I have coming
If my wit stands
In dances all of my problems like they're Charles Manson
With plans to murder my thought bubbles expansion
And hands me a rope
Enough to hang myself by
Inside my cancerous mind
Where all my problems are mine
There's no disguise for that
No hiding from your past
When it comes back
It's back
There's no return to sender when you sign for that
Time capsule in the bag is wrapped up so tight
That It's havoc
When it opens up
And you are left to deal with all this older stuff
Like oh enough
Told her nothin gonna rip me open
Snuffed it all out years ago
And I have grown now I am over it
But are you
Really
Or have you
Been nearly
Avoiding
It all
So you
Are appealing
To people
That don't know
Your history
Hide it
I'm sorry
But I had to turn my back try it
I've been to priests
To therapists everywhere
Broke to my knee
For both
Embarrassing
Finding out Who
I'mSupposed To be
One side is mine
One is gods choice for me
I'm not saying that he's wrong
But maybe he miscalculated
Aggravated when he made me
Gave me all of his hatred
I'm impatient,I'm complacent
I'm no good in situations
I've been saying I'm not one to follow
Find a new replacement
The impossible finding me so calm
It's kind of eerie
When a lake won't have a current I force all of it to feel me
Do you feel me
I'm like all you
Don't think I'm any different
We are all the same other skins
But some of you are lifted
