My Life In Words.

My Life Comes Down To One Word,
Which Is Hell,
Half My Life My Eyes Seemed Blurred,
My Life Seems To Never Want To Get Well,
But It Does Excel,
Growing Up Was Hard Without A Father There All The Time,
My Mother Was There But Wasnt Trying,
My Momma Taught Me How To Be A Man Young,
It Didnt Hurt But It Still Stung,
Half The Time Growing Up I Wasnt A Kid,
I Had My Own Responsibilities,
I Was Young & Reckless,
I Wore My Heart Out Like A Necklace,
I Got Introduced To Drugs,
By The Time I Was 10 I Was Already A Thug,
Got Introduced To The Gang,
Started Commiting Crimes,
I Couldnt Even Tell You How Many Times,
Eventually Drugs Took Over My Life,
Theres So Many Times I Wanted To Turn To The Knife,
Suicide Seemed Like An Option Or A Way Out,
But I Learned Thats Not What Lifes About,
I Learned That Everything Happens For A Reason,
Just As The Sky Changes Because Of The Seasons,
Eventually I Did Time For All That I've Done,
I Did Get One Last Chance To Do Right,
I Took It & I Still Havent Let It Lose My Site,
Now Life Seems Brighter,
My Shoulders Seem Lighter,
I Seem To Be Getting Along Better,
But I Still Have My Doubts In Life,
But I Take Life One Day At A Time,
Im Taking It Slow,
Now Im Going With The Flow,
Staying On The Down Low,
Kicking It With Trevor(My Bro),
I Used To Tell People My Trains On One Track,
Now My Trains On Two & I Feel Brand New,
Now Im Focused On My Music & Gettin Heard,
Im Focused On Finding My True Love,
Now My Life Is A New Word,
Which Is Well,
& Ya Im Doin Swell,
I Hope Yours Is As Well.
