still holdin on
Sitting here thinking about back in the day, Trying not to want my old ways, Its time to grow up im no longer a child, I know my life's been kind of wild, All I can do is hope for a new tomorrow, Get off my *** and forget the sorrows, Life Is alright I ain't complaining ..

I thought things would be different, I though they would change in an instant, I refuse to believe my thoughts are wrong, I've come a long way. I consider myself strong, I'm still young with big responsibilities, Used to move from group home to group home. And other facilities, I got out to be with family, But it seems like its only me,

I used to smoke **** and Drink everyday life was ****** and I didn't pray   didn't wear any colors but black and grey if you looked at me, pain is what you'd see ask everybody I know, then you'd believe me tried to change everything all I needed was a little shove my mama told me baby girl it's tough love I didn't understand, well .. kind of since then I've been locked up got my **** together but the homies say whatever I smile, cause I used to be wild now its time to grow up, I'm no child the system helped me become wise **** the ******** holding me down, I'll rise life is hard, but I'll give you a hand I was like most of you, with my future unplanned   I got off my *** to take a stand for once in my life I'm in command

Drained
My life is like a puzzle everyone has a piece of me some of me here, some of me there as i'm sitting in my cell, trying to piece back my life i want to scream and yell songs are going through my mind reminging me of the good times then i start to remember the bad my emotions become deranged i look out the window feeling like i'm going insane i pace back and forth slowly deciding if i should get on my knees to pray for the lack of misery trapped inside my brain causing this mental pain but instead i want to sit here and write to you, to tell you my hopes and dreams i know will never come true you used to tell me, i could always come and talk to you ..
