Suppose To Be
In this world I am both, shadow and light,
no longer am I moved, by the darkness of night.
They both exist inside of me,
yet now, I walk, what I choose to be.
I once was driven, to do unthinkable things,
killed with my words, added to deaths, daily stings.
Now I see, with such greater a light,
that it over came me, in my darkest night.
Now in the newness of my heart and mind,
over that darkness, myself I find.
Now I am no more driven, in the night,
as I now sit, and to you, the truths I write.
My road hasn’t been easy, I don’t give up, or give in,
till I am who I wanna be, I’m playing to win.
I must keep this attitude everyday you see,
as my shadow keeps me, where I’m suppose to be.
