Until Sleep Finds Me

Cant sleep, my brain begins to fumble Devils knocking on my door Getting harder to stay humble thoughts getting louder like a Coke head without the powder Try as i might to ease my mind of the night Current enivironment cuts like a knife Plug back into the matrix, Zap! And there goes my life A fight taking flight Inside wide awake it sleeps waiting to break Pull me free from my shackles My soul is whats at stake Making rhymes to pass the times Plucking apart my inner hymnes The ones that i hide So the others can have their peace of mind Dont need a fancy vocabulary Just one feeling at a time This is how Yet im still tracing lines Of yesterdays stories Telling myself im still doing fine Now i Break the cycle Reading the God given signs To be a warrior is to fight even when your blind Keep marching forward. Dont even look behind
