I feel inconsistent with me If there was a button on my life line I’d prolly hit rewind a hundred times I mean I honestly try My perception and what I know now It’s all intertwined I feel like I’m stuck in a fight An Inner Complicated strife Don’t know what I’m battling Like I’m seeing but blind Perused by failure A part of me is suppressed Depressed and unable to express The nature in which I write Shutting down bad memories I’ve put a lot of me on strike To live to see another night I just don’t know how to come out and say I’m a slip away from wrong But that direction was my right I’ve had years to find my own way Plenty of chances to change I’ve walked in the rain Laying down loved ones Growing from that pain Living in the shadow at times Thinking solitude will show me Theres more from life to gain And a higher power be showing me signs like the futures preordained I remain patient Sustained by my daughter Praying that doesn’t change Always be a father Young like her Playing the roll of both ends like big brother but that’s mini me And not everyday has sunshine but I’m honestly tryingBirth sign: Aries
