Giving In To Your Higher Power

Feels like nothing has gone right in the last little while.
But I still get up everyday and Put on a smile.  
I know with the love that’s around me I’m going to get threw it. 
But everyone’s all always asking me man whats you're secret and how do you do it.
I say it’s easy cause I know that I’m  not cursed. 
It’s the path I’m supposed to be on and it’s chosen by the universe.
It new I was headed down a wrong path and needed change. 
So not single part of my life it did not rearrange 
Cause I was going crazy and off the handle had to be there for my kids and set an example. 
I wasn’t happy I was losing all my self love. 
I was meant to more that’s what I was told from my powers above. 
They said the life I was livin was way to fake. So they had to sent me to the bottom pushed me in the dirt 
even threw in a little bit of heart ache. 
There was something greater that I’m supposed to do this I now know . 
The reason I was pushed so deep in to the dirt was because how else does a seed grow 
. I was so bruised beat hurt and tender. 
I wasn’t going to fight it no more so to their guidance I did surrender. 
I’m going to miss some things quite dearly. But I know thy weren’t never meant to stay.  I can see that Now quite clearly. Now that my mind is clear I find it kinda funny. 
That I thought the most important thing to get was to make sure I had lots of money. 
But when they take everything from you and you reflect on it after. 
You see your life wasn’t trial by error but more like trial by disaster. 
The things that are important are kids parents sisters and brothers. 
So when you think your life is falling apart it’s really just unraveling it’s self for you to see its true colours.

Good Bye To My Addiction

Why is this so hard when all I want is for you to be gone 
The time we’ve spent together has been to long. Well addiction now it’s my turn. I get to sit here this time and watch you burn. Just as you e done to me in the past. I get to throw you off a mountain this time and watch you turn to ash. So buy, peace out, get out of here cause your gone. I’m the king of this game now know longer the pawn. Oh!! Does that hurt? Do you feel that pain?
To think we would stay together is the new definition of insane. You took everything from me and you almost took my life. But I’ve met new friends with new ways to no longer play with the sharp end of the knife. So if I were you I would just run. I’m in charge of this life now and I’m the only one. Oh! Just so you know I e prepared my self to be as strong as I can be. So when you come running back and I know you will cause just as I was addicted to you you were addicted to me. You took 16 years 3 months and 7 hours. Only cause you masked my face and never let me see that I had higher powers. We are together now and we are a team. Your nothing but a pitiful disgrace that feeds off taking people’s dreams. So as I watch these ashes float off in to the sky. I’m glad it was you and not me that had to die.
