The Worthless Me ! ( Becomes the Powerful Be ! )

Talking about myself takes a lot of power 
my tongue is so numb and my mind is sour 
i am so shocked to find that i'm lower 
than anything you think, i was in a sinful shower ! 

My name is Medo, it's a nick name 
to hide my true self and all the shame 
not the shame of the name but the shame of the fame 
because once you know me, you'll never be the same ! 

I'm going to be the best of the best 
it's all in my mind and has nothing with my fist 
i have a lot of emotions in my chest 
it'll all be over and I'll finally rest 

once you hear me you'll see the truth 
that i'm so tough and realize that i'm pure 
you'll live and wish that you're in my shoes 
our world is the cancer and i'm the only cure ! 

Being modest ? I've tried it before 
i kept everything i did inside in store 
it's like being a great swimmer in the middle of the sea 
and be down to earth by not swimming to shore 

I lost myself, not once before 
but now i'm tough, and will not lose anymore 
be my friend you'll be safe, so there for.. 
Never let your guard down, i'm a monster to the core ! 

I've been , so worthless 
I've been , so defenceless 
If you knew me, you'll only see 
that the worthless me 
is already gone 
from the core of my heart up to the last bone 

and now, what's left in me 
is the powerful being, the power to see ! The power to see !
