Fly

I know I write a lot about all 
the things money can provide,
like material items and not 
what I'm inspired by.
Having dreams and a keen 
intuition provided by
All the times that I failed but 
I'm still willing to try to fly.
I'd be telling a lie,
If it ever compares to this
So many times I condoned 
when my actions were intricate

I know I don't wan't to be 
stressed,
I don't wan't to live a lot,
I just wan't to live my life 
without it being criticized,
there's a soft spot on my heart 
I tend to solidify
cause I don't wan't to live if I 
see hatred through either eye
I don't wan't attention just 
want to be left alone,
plus every challenge that I 
face, I use as a stepping stone
I don't need anybody's 
guidance I can live with my 
mistakes
I may not know just where I'm 
headed but I'll make it there 
safe.

A lot of times I'm feeling 
exposed and laughed at,
but in my mind I'll still be in 
control.
It's a heavy burden for a young 
soul
All of which I'm more intact 
hoping the universe can help 
me weather the storm.

Please correct me if I'm wrong,
But isn't life a question in which 
the answer is left alone?

And so I write these thoughts 
down not knowing if I'm truly 
right,
but it's what's left in my mind 
that'll give me a better sight.
A better life,
not just for me but for every 
life,
since selfish doesn't apply to 
the process
Metaphorically speaking we all 
can fly just acknowledge your 
progress.
