Never Give Up

You can do it without your hand out.
Used my talent to be a stand out.
Don't just take what they hand out.

Leap of faith,
During the fall,
I figured it out.
Some chase dreams,
by running their mouth.
Those are just signs,
The path, in real life,
Gotta figure it out.

Follow your passion.
Do not deny, the one thing,
You can't life without. 

Haters go hate, so what?
Let them run their mouth.
A snake go be a snake,
Don't waste time trying to figure it out.

Doing you is what life is about.
Its the one person you will always need,
The one you truly can't live without.
Your worste enemy, turned best friend
How do you think villains came about?

Watch the people you keep around you.
Its the ones closest too you,
That end up
Going nuts,
Turn things around 
And screw with you;
Like voodoo
These fools trying to
Make you one too.

Not matter what you  do
Things run their course
Life is about getting through this Hulu.

Some get high, and fly through.
Some write poetry, different high--
This type; you navigate through.
Some fall in love, 
Others just do what they do.

Just never give up, 
Life is too beautiful.
Even that pain,
Deep inside of you.
You are not alone,
What you feel, isn't unique just to you.
I've been their too.
Just let its past,
Accept your faith,
And you will be grateful.
You get a "Like"
And start feeling Great; full.

your purpose 
Was given to you,
on purpose 
For a purpose; 
Hidden within you.
What you do,
Is up to you.
That choice 
embedded
Deep in you.

don't let deep emotions 
Ruin what's on your surface
Trust yourself 
Its worth it
Everything is on purpose
Cause its worth it.
