RUMBLE

It's me versus me 
Not against anyone
It's my present against my past
Not against the world
It's my angel against my demons
Not against them demons
So I can only align with what's uplifting.

Patiently fighting
Fighting until I triumph 
Fighting against my lower self
Empowering my higher self
So I can thrive with grace
Not disgrace 
Giving more than I take.

It's me against my habits
Old patterns
Unlearning and relearning
Letting go all that's draining
Embodying all that's edifying 
So not to fit in the box
Societal programming 
Unprogramming and reprogramming myself.
