The Hardship of Break

That Mary go round that don’t ever stop, watch the clock tick, your mind the only one playing the trick, battle with something new daily, live by faith but drowned in your own water, pray up above to my one an only father, lost by what only I created, memories of good time now is pictures over faded, cross my own path that I said I’d never take, living life on the line of what’s true fate, sitting in the middle of this unstoppable go round, let all outside bull left unfound, the broken pieces I lost in this life can’t come back to with stand me, the hate the love I let it all be, that feeling of stress that hits really hard, is only part of life’s lessons playing card after card, straight maxed out over an over, watched loved ones be addicts an changed to sober, taught many lessons the hard way, so now watch the things that I say, now discipline myself to the facts that I know, watch my pride continuously grow, mistakes made me strong where I was weak, now I sit my seat real nice an neat, i let my fails be my lessons, an always thank above for my blessings, kicked down many times from many that said they’d never kick while I’m down, that’s where in life I learned where friendship was found, I can’t reminisce on all that left me lost, the value now stands any cost, broken, shattered, the lost of the mix, call it what you want but this isn’t your fix, now here I’ll stand mind over matter an win at my own play, overcome all obstacles that were sent my way. ?
