Grateful

The insane I’ve got down
The lonely?
Sometimes I think I’m better off on my own
Can’t run from your head though 
At least I don’t think I can 
Who knows? But when I feel like that? 
I just try to be grateful for what I have 
Cuz, some need  just a place to stay
Some who have worn combat boots
 now don’t even have a decent pair of shoes
The lonely? I’ve got down 
The insane ?
Sometimes I think it’s just a matter of perception.  
I may be the last one who can see
Can’t run from your head tho 
At least I don’t think you can 
Who knows? But when I feel like that? 
I try and elevate the frequency 
and be grateful for what I have .
