Reevaluate
There's no one on this earth that's perfect
Not even me
I make mistakes daily
Yes I do
Trying to be impressive
To this world
In my heart a lost little girl
Trying to be a people pleaser
Instead of a firm believer
I've been misunderstood
Yes I have
Let my good outweigh my bad
Im coming to a conclusion
Who am I
Im more than what meets the eye
I just want to know
Why me though
I've falling weak
Within in myself
Making sure I put on an image
For everyone else
I want to be stripped down
Of all the things I did
Im asking Lord that you forgive
Coming to mends
Looking for friends
That dont belong
I was to told to stand
Even if i had to do it alone
I was in a position
To listen
To my heart
Yet I chose my mind
To lead
And I was disaster
Things started moving faster
In my life
I accepted a job
That was not beneficial
That I regret
Only thing I receive is mistreatment and a check
But im still there
I question myself
Have I looked inside and saw my wealth
I reevaluate things that have tooken place
Im in a better shape
Than I've ever been before
Yet people still see my faults
Sometimes I feel lifeless like a plant waiting for a vault
But then I think of his goodness
And his blessings
I got to stop blaming myself
Stop stressing
Over my past
One thing about it trouble dont last
At least not forever
We can see sunshine in the midst of the weather
This kind of reevaluation
Causes for a celebration
Celebrating times where we can be more
Than what lies at the door
An opportunity that we never saw coming
Im ready im tired ?? of running
I want to walk in the right direction
The hardest thing to do
Is depend on you
No relying
On nothing but the truth
That im lost and nothing without you
Took a look in a book
That's called the bible
It gives us preparation for your arrival
Tips for survival
No half stepping
Every day we are granted to live
Is another blessing
People are confused
Becoming of this world
That's turned wicked
We all have to get that ticket ??
The one that's golden
I want to be one of the chosen
Not frozen
With a cold
Revaluation what can I do
To improve
On self
Stop worrying about things I have no control over
Not lucky like a four leaf ?? clover
But more grateful
Cant be hateful
Have to represent love
In the midst
No different than when you're completing a test
When you go in
You give it your best
Even when it feels like you will fail
Know that you will prevail
Build broken relationships
Heal broken hearts
Its a new you
Therefore there's a new start
Learn from life lessons
That have occurred
When you feel down
Get reassured
No matter how hard you try
Dont stop just wait
For the greatness
When you reevaluate
