The Courage
It's been a while...
A while since I've spilled my heart out.
A while since I could remember that I was once a clown.
A while since I've spoken about that town.
Hiding behind the tears of a clown was no longer me.
It was time to stop playing around and become clean.
It was hard because I had to make people believe.
Believe that I too, is a human being.
I've come a long way from those days.
Those days of misery and heartaches.
I kept on running away and never wanted to stay.
I just wanted to rush this life for my parent's sake.
Those black clouds can disappear,
Because I have made myself very clear,
That no one can ever bring me tears,
By making decisions for me while I'm still here.
I've learn to cut people's bull**** out of my life.
I don't want it to be another waste of time.
It's all about sacrifice.
It's about do or die.
Fierce, Courage, and Strength, has kept me alive for this long.
These three words are my motivation to keep on living strong.
Anyone that comes in my way can shut their tongues,
Because by then I'll be saying so long.
