Overcome

Time is passing, my life goes to crashing, I have to stay surpassing, I’m constant an heavy on the go, my pain endured I must outgrow, I’m busy, it’s all fast, I can’t let it haunt me, I’m running from my past, I catch a glimpse of the old days here an there, I kick it back I have to repair, I once was this, I was once that, I can’t keep on with combat, I did fail in many new things I tried, I caught myself telling the lies, I owned up to my mistakes, took accountability  this life I’m building I must maintain stability,  I take my old ropes cut them all loose, I can’t build in old abuse, I’m a broken mess, glued back piece by piece, my demons i with hold I must release,  I’m a different person each phase of my life,  I can’t keep feeling all as strife, I’m moving forward slowly, I’ve spent enough time being unholy, goodbye to the wreck I once was, here I go moving above.
