Bling, Bling, Bling

Bling, bling, bling,
How I sung your praises when I was in that lost state,
I thought having it all meant showing how I was great,
Mistaken as I was , trying to let material determine my fate,
Little did I know,
It will never last as long as my glow,
As I go,
Looks don't have anything to do with my flow.
All the money I did spend,
Just to have a taste, like my kin.
If I knew what I know now my friend,
I could have had the good life, that would not have had to end.
I blew it, I blew it,
I cant blame anyone, I'm just in my own pit.
Now I'll stay true to my self,
I know it's better for my mental health.
I see now there is no kit , to help you with what life spits.

I Am Better For It

Because you told me no, when I wanted so much to be right,
I am better for it,
When I was going down the wrong path, you told me ,
You didn't care how much I would fight,
I am better for it,
When I was so in love and wanted everyone to like it,
You told me that it was not love and you were right,
I am better for it,
When I thought I was grand, living in a lie,
You wouldn't let my BS fly,
I am better for it,
Whether I listened or did it right,
You kept working , trying to get me to take flight,
I am better for it,
When I cried you dried my tears, eased my fears, but you pushed me back out there,
I am better for it,
When I listened to you I would soar, 
You knew my potential and wanted me to give more,
I am better for it,
Now that you are gone I realize your dream for me, 
I am better for it!

Hope

Hope

I can't take it,
Hope I make it,
This road is rough,
I'm the one who made it tough,
Why don't I listen,
Their words could make my life glisten,
My stubbornness has got to go,
If not, it's my life that I will blow,
My dreams were within my means,
I didn't reach high enough it seems,
I'm going to make that change, every little bit,
I want to make it!

Unseen

I am at the end,
No one can see,
Bright , cheerful, loving, I be,
It's all fake,
That is the smoke screen I make,
If some relief doesn't come soon,
It may be all over by next noon,
I don't see a way out,
Oh my God, I just want to shout,
Help me please,
In time I want to freeze,
Even though it's my own doing,
I still want that cooing,
I just can't think,
It's all over in a blink.

Be

As I sit quietly on my bed,
The voices still swirl in my head,
What they are saying, 
Keeps replaying,
No matter how hard I try,
 They just wont die,
My destiny is calling,
Time out, no more over hauling,
My ancestors are telling me,
Go forward and Be!
