Shenika Sims and Marty King: Pathway To Light
SHENIKA SIMS
i guess i am on a pathway to light
i put on my contentment perfume and just run and jump
i do not know that i am free
i only know that i notice that i am not free
for too long this man has been the death of me
it is now time for me to come alive and let the little boy go
knowing this now, it is allowing me to grow
this pussycat of mine will remain closed for renovations
my yorkie is all the company i need right now
she is my new travelling buddy for she loves me without judgment or ridicule
i begin to become reacquainted with myself
i guess i am on a pathway to light
MARTY KING
i guess i am on a pathway to light
i omit and dissipate the damage the bullies made on the soul of my confidence
there comes a time when you have force the clutches of fear to back off and take back control
it is then that you see things in life anew and enable yourself to humbly grow
for oh too long i have allowed those bullies to beat me down into full submission
i now say NO MORE....I MUST ALLOW ME TO BE ME!
God now fully engraved and forever still in my life, He becomes my tour guide
my life has come full circle with history stickers of different states and realms
however, i am working on myself and my life has not been the same
what i dig most about it all is that I AM NOT THE SAME!
i begin to become reacquainted with myself
i guess i am on a pathway to light
