Think I'm gonna fail then you're truly wrong. In this game of life I'm far more than a pawn Started from the bottom, now I'm up, Drakes song. But I been at my greatest all along To you this is just words, a rap, a song. For me this is life,freedom, a gateway to beyond... Reality Allowed me to rise above a self fulfilling prophesy. Went from the streets to Seattle University. Without music, I don't wanna think where I'd be. My story, my life, a piece of me. Creating music helped me to cope, to gain clarity Music is a gateway out of reality.

Music
Tragedy Children and families living in poverty Holdin on to the American Dream, But is that better than reality? Families starving, stuck in a self-fulfilling prophesy Societal pressure blinding us, can't see Creates limitations that promote conformity Kept in the dark, forever trying to attain clarity. Forget everyone else and who you used to be Only you stand in the way of beating the self-fulfilling prophesy.

Self-Fufilling Prophesy
Friends forever, didn't last Love fades, people grow, memories in the past. I try not to attach due to my inability to detach from reality. Labels **** **** up, end up in tragedy. I can't date anybody, dysfunctional me. Losing people, good for me? Wait and see. Wish I could live in the fantasy that lays at arms reach... Logic stops me.

Forever Doesn't Mean Always
Laying here with these thoughts in my head Remembering the past, thinking about things said. Thinkin bout today, thinkin bout tomorrow Coming up from so much sorrow People thought they knew about me Rumors believed led her into tragedy Consumed by drugs, she's become empty Don't live in people's past, let the person they've become and their actions now be all you see.

Perception
Fantasies Ignorance of reality Emotions, to be or not to be Drives a logical person to insanity.

Short and Sweet
Whats the difference between you and me? Both falling in love, blind to reality Sometimes to love is to let go and let things be. Sacrificing emotions so they may be happy. Sometimes love leads to tragedy. Things get better, bounce back, allow yourself to see Single doesn't need to equal lonely. You got friends, you got family. Somethings can't be controlled, not meant to be. Think positively How you perceive things can transform reality.

Escape Fantasy
I came from abuse, I came from sorrow. What happened yesterday doesn't determine tomorrow. I remember the past so vividly, peoples preconceptions about who I was gonna be People in my old city thought they knew me We in a world where we believe in fixed reality The person you were yesterday isn't who you have to be Ignorant people talking about , "It's just your destiny" Stop complaining about life and be free Do what you want, be who you want to be. Went from the streets to a student at Seattle University Nothing is fixed, transform your reality -Kim Hines

I came from abuse, I came from sorrow. What happened yesterday doesn't determine tomorrow. What you were isn't who you have to be Nothing is fixed...transform your reality People in my old city thought they knew about me Now i'm on full scholarship at Seattle University Just proves, you decide who you're gonna be Don't let anyone else decide, be someone you're proud to be.

Love, hurt, and betrayal. Love isn't what the media depicts, aint no fairy tale. People will hurt you, and you won't always succeed. Love is a want, not a need.. Sometimes to love is to lose. But in these days in times, people choose to abuse. The word love has no meaning when it's improperly used. Cheating, lies, and betrayal Girls in clubs, bodies on sale These world is cheap, i'm ready to bail Forever single or forever alone, you choose. Both undesirable, yet not so comparable. To love yourself is the key. Don't let anyone else determine who you should be. To really love is to love unconditionally. No need to change if you really love me Make up your mind, who's it gonna be, Cuz I don't need your love, i'll just keep doing me.

Love
Am I the one to blame? The innocent little girl...will things ever be the same? To say I've been the best sister, a false claim. Thoughts of losing her are driving me insane. Running away is her tactic, a way to numb the pain. Life hasn't been easy, no sunshine, just rain Drugs, drama, and pain Is it in vain? Feelings of failure As a sister and a friend. Am I the one to blame?
