Wake Up

TIME HAS SLIPPED AWAY FROM YOU TO NO AVAIL.

YOU SIT AROUND LIKE YOUR IN PRISON CELL.

SPREAD YOU WINGS SO YOU CAN FLY TO YOUR DESTINY.

OPEN YOUR HEART TO THE NEW HORIZONS SURROUNDING YOU.

WHERE IS THE LOVE THAT YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO HAVE FOR YOURSELF.

WHERE IS THE JOY AND PEACE THAT IS SUPPOSED BE IN YOUR SOUL.

DON'T YOU SEE THAT YOU ARE MORE PRECIOUS THAN GOLD.

WHY DO YOU WALK AROUND HURTING YOURSELF ACCEPTING THINGS AND INDIVIDUALS THAT ARE NOT HEALTHY FOR YOU.

LOOKING IN THE MIRROR TO SEE WHO YOU ARE AND WHAT YOU ARE  MADE OF.

FIGHT THIS BATTLE WITH YOUR HEAD UP HIGH AND YOUR ARMOR ON.

PUSH UNTIL THERE IS NOTHING ESLE TO PUSH.

CARRY ON LIKE YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO CARRY ON!

YOU MUST LOOK INTO YOUR INNER SELF AND SEARCH FOR THE WOMAN WITHIN YOU!
