Carry On
Altho I'm highly criticized for the mistakes I've made.
I hope I never go unloved for the mistakes I've made.
To the ordinary man my "blessings" are catastrophies.
No one loves a loser, who waddles in his losses.
Yet everyone loves a comeback.
Praise me not for my accomplishments.
Who's to blame for my success?
I know it's someone out there who needs credit for
my endeavors.
Why isn't there anyone who blames themselves for my mistakes?
Why is it so easy for a man to hold himself with low value?
Most people say I'm egotisticle for placing such high value
on my soul.
Its hard as hell to carry on when no one loves you.
On the outside looking in, I'm a clown once inside they say I'm to
intense.
Often times I find myself questioning me.
Then I realize responsibility is intense.
I can say proudly that I know how Marcus Garvey is/was
feeling.
-Not in the since of running-
But the standing up of a man in "protecting" my mistakes,
mishaps, misfortune.
for all those who criticize me in order to
make themselves feel better about themselves, the pleasure is all mine.
Carry On!!
