It's Time To Grow
wanting to know when and how all my natural desires became warped unimportant overlooked
it caused unhappiness for others but most importantly myself
when did i become invisible to myself
i blame it on my speech my thoughts my addictions
contridicting everything i do every move i make afraid to put the next foot forward
i am powerless over myself trying to find my message my reason of being
i keep burying it in another blast that only lasts for a few
misplaced steps then walking to realize i don't know where or when out my next step
no desire for approval exposing myself living on the edge
not scared or aware of the ending step
is it jail with no bail
is it death and forever will i sleep leaving loved ones to weep
where will this next step take me\
will it be a step for a new meaning of life
is it time to grow
this is all i know
