Unanswered Recovery.

These Last Few Years Have Been Hectic,
My Life Is Still A Wreck,
Ima Patient In Recovery Trying To Get Back On My Feet,
So Many Things Have Happened These Past 2 Years,
I Reminisce As I Weap,
I Just Wish I Could Just Take A Big Leap,
But It Aint As Easy As It Seems,
It Seems To Be Only In My Dreams,
My Momma Told Me To Take Steps Insteada Leaps,
I Was Gettin Tired Of Falling In 6 Feet Deep,
Im Gettin Tired Of Climbing My Way Back Up,
I Feel Like A Volcanoe Bout To Arupt,
I Just Wanna Give Up,
Im Gunna Try Not To Trip & Lose My Grip,
I Dont Wanna Lose Focus,
I Ask Myself Everyday How Im Still Alive,
I Pray To God & Ask Him Why,
Why Am I Still Here When So Many Times Death Has Come My Way?
Why Am I Still Here If I Cant Obey?
Those Questions Are My Life,
I Dont Know Who's Wrong & Who's Right,
It Hurts To Know That Im Losing My Light,
But All I Can Do Now Is Get Better,
Im Gunna Write My Dear Lord A Letter,
A Message In Mind,
I Hope He Can Answer Me Sometime,
Maybe He's Gunna Wait Till We Meet Face To Face,
I Dont Know How Long Thats Going To Take,
Im Looking Forward To It Though,
Wheather I Die Now Or Die Old,
Im Goin To Stay Strong & Not Lose Hope,
Im Gunna Make My Mark In This World,
I Just Pray That It Wont Make A Turn For The Worst,
Im Expecting It To Burst,
Just Like It Always Does,
I Dont Want My Life To Lose Its Buzz,
So Ima Keep My Head Up & Keep On Going,
Just As I Keep On Growing,
Im Young & Been Through Alot,
I Just Dont Wanna Be Forgot,
Im Gunna Make This Life Like A Jump Shot.
