Where Do I Begin

If you could dream and not make your dreams your enemy If you could drive your mind out of all insanity You will have perfected all seen in reality A standard life is all one really wishes for A simple light is what I see down this corridor So unique and small yet so complex and infinite Did not chose this ocean but choosing to navigate in it In time of struggle I must stay optimistic Lucifer was once very beautiful and majestic In reflection not bound to be acknowledged In hope of recognition for what he thought was knowledge There and then assuming he was right Believing he was greater than those that fight in the light Today I live in fear and in sin Mesmerizing the unreachable scars under my skin Playing a game that's inevitable to change Like the moon in the sky being pulled to close range Following the natural law of existence you're born, you live and die in an instant Always live your life in appreciation Begin with what you don't have And use it as motivation To want to succeed More than you want to breath From hard work freedom you will receive Like a seed pushing through concrete Destined to be a great tree Standing so tall It reaches the heavens that couldn't be seen Never thought of Nor granted to be conceived Now I believe Please set me free Not afraid to rise above silence Not afraid to smile in a day full of sorrow I recognize when I'm wrong Yet always fighting for tomorrow :Ace
