Certain Reality
I’m mostly self-conscious, a bit oblivious
Completely outgoing, but then that’s obvious
I’m addicted to Dr. Pepper because it’s my cocaine
And I love the darkness when it rains
I’m a bit pessimistic and collectively sarcastic
I’ve been described as eccentric and somewhat too drastic
I’m an artist in my heart, soul, and mind
I love to laugh so my mouth will be lined
I’m a believer in the unseen
And I know God’s in Heaven watching over me
I make mistakes, more than one
But even with morals I know how to have fun
I have ridiculous friends, and I’ll adore them forever
Even if I’m so far away I have to send letters
I’m talkative, pretty much all the time
And my artistic chaos is somewhat sublime
I’m prone to occasionally overreact
But now that I’m aware, I’ve fixed most of that
Of politeness and smiles I’m a big fan
And when given a choice, I always stand
Arkansas is where I’m from and the Razorbacks my symbol
And my family is there, not blood but faithful
I prefer the summer over the winter
And I am one with a quick temper
I’m not gorgeous, but I’ve got Southern charm
And with my darlin’s and y’all’s, you’ll fall for me hard
All of these things are a part of me
And I can be your best friend or your worst enemy
Starbucks is the place of my dreams
And I love pizza when meat is the theme
Chocoholic doesn’t even begin to describe
My passion for cocoa of any kind
I don’t have a filter, which is a curse and a blessing
Because usually I’ll say whatever I’m thinking
I’ll hold intelligent conversation wherever I can
And all of this is just who I am
