Where To Begin

Where to begin?
A life already entrenched in sin

Searching to belong
Lead astray, something gone wrong

Fighting for a purpose beyond the base surface
Striving for the sun, fighting to be nothing less

A tough journey to endure without many guidelines
But a purpose worth seeking to bring reason to these rhymes

Will this all be for naught? A mere shadow of a man
Or will this spark a revolution? Time to take a stand

Only time will tell as anyone will say
However time is so fickle and only it can decide the part we play
