Shrouded
So I guess that I'm defeated
or will you tell them i retreated
Back to my own world I created
because this one is overrated
I've seen my share of peaks and valleys
been through corn fields and dark alleys
Everywhere I've been seems to teach me something new
and if I can say nothing else at least I can say I grew
And this growth in me continues now
never stopping, not sure how
Perspective gained through living everyday
and with all this new perspective I can pave my own way
But I find myself giving advice that I could never follow
I tell my friend be whole, while I let myself stay hollow
And I'm shrouded in hypocrisy
until i can find the rest of me
