Peace Within

I hope one day you find peace within yourself
Holding grudges
on individuals
in your past
is not going to help your future
Wake up Wake up
Move on Move on
You probably wonder why it's so easy for a  
 person like me to say that
maybe because I was not there
 when your issues that you had in life occurred
If I was not there then you can't say 
that I had anything to do with whatever happen in your past
In  order for someone to resolve 
there inner peace within your past
I had to be there
But since I was not there
It's easy for me to say
Wake up
Wake up
Move on 
Move on
Because I was not there
So I solve my own inner peace
I don't hold no grudges on anyone
because I was not there
 when certain situation in 
your life occurred
So since you can't hold
 no grudges against me
Can you do me a favor please stop
 hanging around in my future trying to make me feel
 guilty on whatever issues that happen to you in the past
Please find time to heal yourself within
