A Note To My Future Self

A Note To My Future Self 
Understand the difference between sickness and health 
Maybe by now, you'll have understood yourself
Remember you did this all on your own, you aint have no help

Remember to be righteous 
On your path, you made some homies, made you wanna write this 
So you could give it a listen, when you need reminding 
Hit play, and fall into your thoughts, before you rewind it 

Remember the times when, you and the homies would rhyme and 
Forget the world that surrounded, the room that me and you vibed in
Remember the violence, you felt when you'd close your eyelids 
Forget what the price is, in time, you'll find that you're priceless

If ever I digress, remember to keep the topic 
My mental progress, is similar to a mosh pit 
To sit in an office, to me, is to sit in my coffin
Don't slip on your conscious, the world'll have you making a profit

Off feeding a monster, don't listen to what they talking 
They couldn't follow the steps of the places you've had to walk in 
Remember the artist, wisdom come through the hardships
You're only a human, even when you feel like a martian

The world is your target, don't ever let it disarm you 
Reign with the power, made in the image of God's army 
You're built with the armor, of a thousand soldier infantry
Earth, Heaven, or Hell, I'ma be here 'til infinity
