Honest

You must feel broken hearted and feel you want to blow.
please don't get to excited, I'm really being honest
I need to let you know. This world is full of liars you've heard it
all before, but I know I'm being honest I've been down the same road before
with those unfaithful people who made a hole in my soul. I've become numb 
and painful but honest to the bone.
I don't want  to hurt no more for the pain I felt, I wouldn't sell it to a soul.
life is full of surprises 'wise people told me so, I never really listened till
now that I'm all grown. The seed that grew inside me is letting itself glow,
I can now see beauty shining from the stone, I used to be a pillow when  I  
took my first breath, it was that first breath that led me to my death, it became so    
complicated, I was a living soul, nothing seemed to hurt me, didn't even know the word. All that came to me slowly and i began to burst, I'd never seen me at my worst, 
lessons learned in life are not cheap, many times they make you weak 
so please stay soft and humble, and maybe sometimes meak, life throws it's kicks and punches for us to dodge them quick.
We won't live forever, remember as we grow, life will always teach us if we take the knowledge road instead of the powerful blow, and only then will we begin to grow.
