“Give up defining yourself - to yourself or to others. You won't die. You will come to life. And don't be concerned with how others define you. When they define you, they are limiting themselves, so it's their problem. Whenever you interact with people, don't be there primarily as a function or a role, but as the field of conscious Presence. You can only lose something that you have, but you cannot lose something that you are.”
― Eckhart Tolle, A New Earth: Awakening to Your Life's Purpose

Time is money
money is time
So when they say it takes money to make money
They mean it takes time.
We all get the same amount daily
Personality gives quality
Because no one can survive selling off white canvases
portraying the self
to receive currensy

Gotta keep ths bar raised
Above and beyond what we call minimum wage
You gotta sell yourself in order to receive a fat check on pay day
Meaning understanding that wealth
Pertains to ones health
Properly known that to diet right heightens stealth.
Mediation nourishes the soul
Hydrating, purifying the flow
Keeping busy to stimulate the brain
Always on top when ignorant folk do or say anything

Its plain to see
Finding yourself includes paying off a bunch of fees
Some say taxes but its really adversity
Cause nothing worth having in life ever comes easy
Best way to succeed is to merely just be me
I can only speak for myself,  cause its my world, my industry
My mind cant escape to retrieve too much of another mans mysteries
Ill burst like a bubble
My mind is that fragile
But ill forever help those in need with any one of their battling struggles

He says hes my protector
And some days he'll be my lover
But if he's gonna be both
He must learn how to take cover.

Those who fail to know
From head to toe
What I represent
They who are filled with apprehension
Strving to cage me in sin

Please recognize I am no peasant
Nor am I one of omniscence
Just one with daring endeavers
Dreams of heavenly treasures

Forgetting to realize that I am the one who needs the most attention
Most protection from my intentions
Is the **** part I forgot to mention.

I am my own enemy
Or shall I say frenemy
Because im honest with advice
My conscience always giving me insight
But then my lower self comes destroying life
Self destructing...DYNAMITE

From understanding the self to then losing chess
How will I ever be able to live like the rest
Success
Living righteous

Will I ever see light of day or will it be darkness filled sorrow again tomorrow?

Life is just so beautiful, isn't it
Seems how somedays I can forget all my troubles
and live worry free
Strong as a warrior
For all those filled with sorrow

But then other days anxiety filled
seems as though my mind cant be silenced
Why is what my mind consumes
Where is the hope for tomorrow

I feel like a patient in a psych ward
But then a therapist who cures the mind
How can I be both simultaneously?
Is that a gift from the Divine?
Double edge sword but a blessing disguised
Maybe this will cure the cancers and the blind

The only choice I have is to watch as my soul takes flight
Protect it and prevent it from crashing on sight.

I forget all my troubles while encapsulated by your love
Being in your arms itself transcends me up above
It must be because without you I am a ticking time bomb
tick...rock

Here he comes another bug
Taking my blood
No matter how small or colossal
It stays around like a fossil
Imprinting, instead of on stone; on my soul
O apostle!
Please see that the indentation you have encrypted in gold
Can never be replaced
And the worst part is it was stole
stolen from my life, stolen from my heart
Killing me alive
Deprived
But revived in this deep sea of thought
Mosquito bites again
Along with another him
The problem is not the mosquito
For it has no ability to think.
He has a mind and this is my problem
Why does he forget to think?
Why does he forget to think?
Why does he forget to think?
Quit using your head and use your mind
See that I am not just an object but a woman who deserves respect
Be kind
I cant stand that the first impression is just another compliment
Does it look like I need it? Honestly I get alot of then.
And I know I sound shallow but this is how I feel inside
Why cant you all see beyond what meets the eye
Or maybe you do and im the one who's blind

Just let me be like the Beatles preach
Maybe one day ill see beyond what myself perceives

It is a choice we make
with every moment that passes
Bring the torches and axes
Its time to face the facts. And the fact is
Realistically we can't have what we want and what we need
Simultaneously
Its unnecessary
This excessive greed
Why? What intentions do we have that makes us think
That the mistakes we make won't cause us grief?

He said, "One moment of patience escapes 100 days of sorrow"
But why when tomorrow
Do I forget to borrow
That truth and bury it in my burrow?
Why am I in a constant state of letting go?

Its unbelievable and inexcusable
The pain I caused these many souls
Truth is its probably because the pain I feel
Feels like the worst of all.

They say misery loves company
And I've been keeping company
With the one who brought the grievance to me.

Time to shed the dead skin
It is time to let the new lights reign in
Cutting off these dead ends
No more pretendin'.

I was born as a leader it resides in my blood
Time to win this war in my core, to elate me up above.

— The End —
