Searching For a Better Me
It feels like I've been this way for so long
Trying everyday to find something to help me move on
Taking step after step just to get pushed back
Or maybe my life isn't on the right track
Gotta take the time to slow down
To figure out why my lifes been going round and round
Never getting much further than I was before
It's my family and friends that I adore
So maybe it's time to be a little more progressive
In this short life that I live
Because I am my own man
Just have to do each and everything I can
For me to have a better destiny
No body is going to be able to do this for me
Asking questions everyday but its still feels like im lost
Ill give up everything that I have but what's the cost
Just trying my best to become my own boss
Im not really trying to slave everyday at a nine to five
I wanna live my life while I am alive
Just have to find my motivation and drive
I know that im better than this I just have to do it
So I'll work everyday so I can prove it
You can say for awhile that I've been down
It's time to start turning everything around
Becauase I know in my heart I can become a better man
It time for me to start believing that I truly can
So right now Im going to be taking a stand
To become a better man than I know I am
To be able to do right by my fam
