Relate

As I reflect upon the mirror, I see past and present 
I realize that my past created my present today, This is "Jay!"

Missed opportunity, Fuels a fire everyday
Creating the hunger to grow and think outside the box, Keeps me at bay

Wanting better for myself, Keeps my demons away
As I search inside myself, To find a better way

I conclude, That the person you see here today
Is here to stay, Until my days fade away

Till my soul doesn't duplicate, Making my name
It stops here today, The sun shines even when it rains

Shade Clouds my lane, Helping to reflect my way 
Through the suns rays, I stay away 

Referencing my mistakes, For that I am made 
Words that we say, We feel and we Pray
 
For the mercy in God remains, Through trials and tribulations we become great! 
As we collaborate, A Brother beside his Sister 

How we relate seeing things the same, Yet differently, 
Till the end "Tiffany!"
