The Answer Is There

PEOPLE PEOPLE  
Please hear my plea
Those drugs you got will not set you free
That pain and suffering its not the world's fault
Its that needle that straw and even that dot

How much you thought you finally found
The secret to happiness but it drove you straight through the ground
but I'm not addicted I can stop anytime
Well give it a week or a month or until the end of this rhyme

You suffer from this thing some call a disease
And if you continue on you'll suffer a consequence like me
Jail institutions and death what a lie
Until you realize is the truth and quite right

The last thing you want is to be laying in bed
Sick close to death and full of regret
Or even trapped in a small windowless cell
Wondering if this is the end of your tale

So throw away those needles get rid of that line 
That baggy those pills 
They're just a waste of your time
The truth is simple and lies in a book

Called Alcoholics Anonymous 
Read it just once and you're hooked
There's these events called meetings
That are a such a sight to see

Full of fun loving people Living this life called recovery
It might be scary when you enter at first
But I beg you PLEASE give it a chance.
You'll be surprised what you're worth

Its Never To Late 'Until Your Time Runs Out'

Do you know what its like
When it became too late
That all those past chances
Are no longer yours to take
You failed one to many times 
And now is too late
That one last run 
Has completely changed your fate
To bad it took this much 
To make you awake
There's no going back is to late you see
Unlike your past this mistake can't be freed
You've justified your behaviors saying 
It's my life for me
All so you can continue your filthy meth spree 
Lying to yourself and others that everything was just fine
When you needed their help to get you out of this bind
Its really unfortunate you couldn’t get up
Cause now it looks like your cards just ran out of luck
So much time and energy wasted on trying to run away. 
Afraid of the truth that I would hear if only I stayed
Should of gone to more meeting and worked on my steps
My life would be perfect instead of the this godless wreck
Should of Listened closely to that speaker share 
That story he said could of been  
the answered to your prayers

Poem of Healing

So much fear
So much pain
Riddles my mind
As memories of the past
Come clear inline
I use to white knuckle
And hold on tight
Until I found this place
That showed me whats right
Now I look at the past
And those awful blues
To finally get to a place
That's full of truth 
I tell a close mouth friend
Of my wrongful ways
In hope to experience 
My higher powers grace
Now with my past
No longer all around
I make amends 
To the list of people I found
Explain my errors
And how I am now
To seek forgiveness
And to heal old frowns
At the end of my day
I look at where I've been wrong
To make sure I don't owe
Any I'm sorry's too long
Now closer to God 
I understand his work
I seek out others like me 
To help them find self worth

I'M Taking Control

That is it 
I'm done with this shit
I'm taking control
No more time to give 

No more blaming others 
For what I allowed 
No matter their intentions 
No more and it starts now

I need to break free 
of these gifts of chains 
These presents are a prison
I can only take the blame

Trying to hold the future 
But I don't even have now
Need to refocus motivation
To work for the clouds

Need to go to school
And get a job
Become a member of the world 
And not a homeless slob

I'm an incredible person 
I learn more evidence every day
Time to to get ride of the trash 
That's making me late

I see traits I have 
That others fake 
Theirs lies are transparent 
I just can't relate

These people don't deserve 
A friend like me
No more future chances 
I need to be free

I'm tired of giving chances
For people who waste my time
Draining me of my emotions
It's costing me my life 

My life I can hear it
Calling me to be proud 
Telling me to stand up
And find and safe sober crowd

I Can Make It

Through all the pain and excitement 
through the misery and indictment 
I’ve made may through some of the worse
The journey I’m on has felt like a curse

I’m break through the chains 
No more living my life in vain
With God taking control
allowing me to take the reins

Im here now in hopes of a life worth living 
I can’t say that I can make it without much giving
Pour my soul to God and let Him take me where I need to go
Hand over my will and hope to be the seed he sews

I can’t live my past ANYMORE
The present i where I need to go.
The Future is a representation of my decisions today
I refuse to allow my future to say I was too late

I need my life to mean something
To help another get through anything
I stand before God bowing in honor
to know that I’m his child and protects by his armor

The Bus Stop In La

Waiting for the bus at a bus stop in LA
Sitting next to this guy who is clearly insane
Obviously homeless by the dirt on his face
But what problem came first his life now or The condition of his brain
Could this all of been prevented if someone just knew His pain 
Was it a doctor lack of care that's truly to blame
This has torn me up inside it could happen to anyone just the same 
All it would take is a situation that could cause an everlasting change 
I'm sure he once had family that would be full with Shame 
Feeling crazy themselves with no solution for his ways 
I don't want to be that person who's lost miserable and mentally going away
Who people just think is a lost cause and not worth the waste
Where all it possibly would've took to save 
Was medication and treatment to end his terror reign 
But instead he's just another person who is insane 
And I sit next to some homeless guy at a bus stop in LA
