Take My Shoes

Take my shoes

Walk a thousand miles in my shoes, learn what it's like to be me. 
You’ll see I didn’t have it easy, I am as messed up as messed up can be. 
Moods crashing from a lifetime of crime, mumma ain’t you proud of me. 
Take my mind and I'll take yours. Let me know what you see. 
I bet you cant last one single day feeling the way i did. Life gets hard but so am I, so it's time to lift the lid. 
They called me dramatic, baby you haven’t seen anything yet. My mind is one big drama, some things I’ll never forget. 
What you see is honesty coming from a humble soul. A humble soul who’s lived a nightmare and is yet to reach her goal. 
No snakes, no fakes that wear a crown, who always rain down on me, they can spit their venom, throw their swords, eventually they’ll see. 
Lately i like being alone, I’ve been hard to reach. It’s a moment in life that’s bittersweet, something that I won't teach. 
Walk a thousand miles in my shoes, learn what it's like to be me. My mind is messed up, I’ve seen a lot, yet I only take a size three. 


( I’m new to this, I’m not sure if this would be lyric or rhyme? Any advice appreciated)
