Looking Back
At times or days i feel like stone
Not moving for the better always
alone.
i ask questions; hoping to unlock an
answer
If no reason is found, there is
another
Day to understand, why am i
troubled.
If it was easy it would've been
revealed
Nothing good ever comes easily
But lies come before truth so freely.
What am i doing in this mood?
Where’s my happiness; my good?
Finding myself following the lost,
But when do i get to be the boss.
It’s my life i am suppose to live
But by the examples others give.
Following because it made a change
But it's your effort that made the
grade.
Get up, get out, and change it up,
God is ready if you are done giving
up.
Stuck in the "why is my life that's so
wrong?"
But the problem is we've waited too
long.
Time to react and stop licking your
wounds,
Take the chance overcome your
dues.
Today’s a new day to make it right,
Show them all the truth to spite.
No longer stone to find our resolve,
It’s self so the problem can be
solved.
The answers today to the questions
I ask,
New direction; So I’m not looking
back...
