Toss and Turn

8/23/17



Certain things I could not confirm
Still got a lot to learn
As the hands on the clock turn
Most nights I toss and turn

Go ahead and think its' funny, It don't matter
I'm hungry and still will go after
Money, otherwise it's no answer

Day and night
Trying to make it right
Toward a better way of life

Much to deal with
A realist
You will or won't feel it

Near and far from any stop sign
Showing up on time
Ready to go with a strong mind

In order to be set apart
Going to leave my mark
With all my heart
Right from the start
Whilst being smart
Regardless of if it has to do with hard labor or art

Multi-tasking
As time continues passing
Knowing it all can't be everlasting
