Free 2 Soar

I am not perfect I am not a saint 
I have my vices my loves my hates

I am human flawed not unlike most of humanity 
I can admit to this quite openly 

I cry at times, I laugh equally as much one can see
I'm very much happy  complacent relaxed I try to be stress free

Any problems in my life are minuscule yes I compare
To the struggles of others everywhere 

Friends who've lost family members the stabbings knives carried by young boys
Those around me still suffering silently their friends don't even know

Why can't it be like the old days 
Fisty cuffs no knives or gun play

I strive to be better I move forward I analyse 
I wish so much suffering would disappear I hate hearing the cries 

I've found purpose in my life I just have to hold on learn not to  let go
I was for the longest time a lost soul
empty with so little to show

I now see much clearer so brightly for me the road is lit
I now know my purpose in life & I'm so elated with this 

the energy that flows surrounds me 
the positive force
I feel alive spirits lifted at last I am free 

What the future holds for me I do not know
But where it seems to be leading me I am compelled to follow

Blessed I feel yes blessed be
If I have continual inner happiness I can help others to be like me

Much calmer more clarity I think deeply I analyse 
I'm writing these words cos I've truly opened my eyes

Yes one can have ones eyes open but  can one truly see
Yes I surely can because as i said earlier I've been set free

I am not bound to the world I don't worship material gain or worldly needs
I have my life my health my inner strength I want to succeed 

No darkness surrounds me but so much positive I can't complain
try not to let negativity bombard & disrupt ones  brain

Well to be me not perfect Flawed disorganised I do try 
To make myself better so happy am I 

When you're reading this please i want you to understand 
I am moving forward il make myself a better man

So to all I offer my positive energy
Take some I don't mind
but leave me a little yes I'll be fine

I draw this to a close it has soon reached its end 
I've found my calling my purpose from now to  my life's end 

I know what I am now but in the future what I'll be 
I'll be ascended I will fly yes I believe this to be

I'll help others selflessly as much as I can
and those that know me already will truly understand 

I love this fact the changes slowly I see
i know it won't be instant,  ke se rah what will be

My eyes speak the truth honesty in my words 
Extra extra  read all about it I will not be deterred 
from the path that I've been clearly set for me 
Unburdened ill head towards light & get to where I want to be

Where that is yet not so clear but the signs are there it shows
All I know it's a wondrous happy place, a place to learn be enlightened I know 
I am ready to take this journey I am so ready to grow 

So let me get on this mission a challenge I'm sure 
It's my life I intend not to hold back anymore  
                 xxxxxxxxxxx
      I'm seeing life more clearly now i am  free content  happy, I will soar &I'm ready to fly xxxx
