Till I get there

Unrelated
Much debated
Unphased yet constantly grazed with
Bullets filled with hate
I made up my mind
That I wont delay it

Dream for which my heart bleeded
Denied but the price I paid way to great
To forfeit for the reason for being
I’m not decaying
So easily I found meaning
In breathing with or without anyone seeing
don’t need em if they got nothing God given
Believe it

I’m better off on my own
Stuck between God and a hard place
In my zone and not too far from my home.
Still roaming

I ain’t stopping till I get there
swear I see it like I been there
But they don’t see it wanna kill me
stood together for my downfall
that’s all they wanted for me

To the son I never had
I’m sorry you don’t have a dad
That’s my biggest regret on the other hand I’m glad
I don’t want you in my shoes or my shadow that be bad
Being strong and too alone disadvantages I had 
To my wife swore loved you to the point it made me mad
You were always out of reach I could never understand
I kept trying to make contact but the number that I rang
Always left me disconnected when reality came back

But I ain’t stopping till I get there
swear I see it like I been there
But they don’t see it wanna kill me
stood together for my downfall
that’s all they wanted for me
