Step In Confidence

Seek to master your frustrations...
The most important lessons are learned the hard way...
Don't fear the utter darkness, sooner or later everything is revealed in the light...
The evidence is all around you.
It's only as difficult as you perceive it is and it's only as complicated as you make it.
The prize is worth the fight
And the journeys reward is the experience...
Shelter yourself from animosity where by doing so you take the wind from their sails...
Give thanks.
No matter the situation give thanks.
Because everything happens for a reason.
So smile in the face of adversity because you've been preparing for this.
Put extra effort into your endeavors, destiny awaits.
Make your words carry sincerity and your actions consistency.
Never forget where you came from.
Part of understanding where you are headed is realizing where you've been.
It's important to cry as much as it is to laugh.
Step in confidence.

Introspection Motivation

What's your potential?
What are you capable of?
What situations have linked themselves together in order to bring you where you are today?
What's your contribution to this?
What have you brought to the table?
Use the tools at your disposal,use the supplies included.
Learn to relax outside of your comfort zone.
Never be complacent,never fear failure...only lack of motivation!
Strive to be focused,while remaining humble and patient.
Speak in action using less words.
The decision is final and the choice is all yours.
That's when your looking and watching,use the right eyes to see.
You change your perception,and you change your path
speak from your passion utilizing your emotion
leaving a personal impression that is sure to last...
You attempting to proceed?
Prepare yourself for the hurdles that are coming!
Allow your tenacity and determination to speak...
And weather or not you see it coming when it ends,
may you leave this place with less enemies than friends...
So,until there's nothing left...
up until my last heartbeat and I'm drawing my last breath...
I shall continue...

Self Talk Explorer

May you explore the world outside
and learn to relax outside of your comfort zone
Step to the beat of a different drum
Never neglect to share a smile with a stranger...
Work on your attitude , it will open many doors and windows
Be aware of who you allow to grasp your heart
You cannot love without trust
Never give up on your dreams...destiny is calling
Be quicker at listening than speaking
What is YOUR potential ?
What are YOU capable of ?  
Are you meeting the expectations set before you?
Seek peace like you seek your desires
For years I've been collecting my thoughts just to expose them...
At the right moment
Pick it up...pick it up...pick it up...
Pick it up...
Just to drop it!
Saxophone trumpet blast waiting on it's time to blow
A prisoner with a release date
Waiting on my time to go...

Guardian

Watching you
Studying the way you sleep
Breathing tempo slowed only because you're at rest
Watching you lay there
Wondering what dreams you're in...
Are they treating you well?
Your skin's warm touching mine as you stir
You relax and drift away again
I'm watching you lay there
Wondering what dreams you're in...

Work In Progress

I'm a child of the Most High God and I've got a purpose...
I'm a work in progress goin through a process...
I'm being refined and defined by the hands of the devine...He sent His son for me and He is mindful of my every breath...troubles will come and troubles will pass...but He will work my circumstance into a reason for me to dance...
He calls me chosen,He calls me renewed and He calls me redeemed...My savior cares for me...He knows my name and in His presence I feel no shame...He's brought me though so much,I'm without excuse...He's on the inside making me a vessel fit for the masters use...His word washes me...His Holy Spirit seals me and leads me...At times in this life I may feel alone...Because of Christ,The I Am...says that I am NEVER alone...Because of Christ I bow and kneel and I can boldly approach the throne...In Him I feel no fear...He whispers and reminds me you're just a visitor here...He is my teacher and my guide...always mindful of my needs He has NEVER failed to provide...He gives nothing but the best...He tells me I've removed your sin as far as the east is from the west...I cannot do anything to merit His grace,love,and mercy...
I'm a child of The Most High God
and He sent His son for me...

What I'D Say

All is complex and precarious
Unattached I dance along the double edge
Where they went wasn't where they intended...
And sometimes , in this life...
All the signs don't necessarily tell you the way
Unclean hands matching unclean feet
Polluted thoughts still comprising the way I speak...
Where is your presence currently taking up space?
Because it's quite empty here...
Tear ducts similar to the flow of those dirty rivers
I don't expect you to understand
It's difficult even for me... 
at times to comprehend...
It's the fear that motivates
It's the fear the keeps you stationary
What I'd give to earn a smile from your face...
What I'd say...
Yeah what I'd say
And when your happiness is derived from devices...
You shouldn't be afraid of the surprises

Dialtone

I'll take the blame
I'll hold this space for it's all I've known...
the subtleties aren't so soft anymore
and when I call , you don't have much to say
of substance lacking...
to talk about anymore...
just going through the motions...
yeah just going through the motions

What Was That

I'm not as strong as you think you are 
Seems like the stars are just meant to burn out and here we are daily...
Fading away... 
What was that?
Please repeat and explain what it is you're try to say...
Plotting the course...
On my way to... 
Just...
Hear your voice…
