Started from the bottom
no where at the top
somewhere in the middle
This has gotta stop
This can't be
You believe in me
I watch what you do
Inspiring me like no other
I wish I was like you
But all I can be is me
Every day is a struggle
I am so hungry
You'll never see me thirsty
When its all said and done
You'll be right there with me

When life is short, you just need to climb further
Love isn't difficult, let me paint a picture for ya
I don't mess with the negatives
Lessones learned a long time ago, but I've never picked up a book
Your words have me shook, let me get a look
Words so deep, she wondered what I be
Let me put this record on, **** it
I wanna hear you say you love me
Because in the end, it ended so cold
I thought you was cold, it just got old
I can't start from the beginning, you don't even know
I think of the future, leaving past behind me
Being successful is hard, its all I ever wanted
Even when you struggling, haters wanna see you fall
Catch a glimpse of me, living in luxury
My dreams will come true, it doesn't have to be with you

You had me at hello, but you forgot me when you said goodbye, don't ask me why I try, I just believe in lies, you could have said I miss you, I love you, you know what, forget you, with broken beer bottles and dreams, this feels too much like a tragedy... I loved you a long time ago, tried to pick up the pieces, but they all just fell apart, next time I see you, I'm letting you know, I'm letting you go

I know no truth, all I know is lies, some say I'm a thief in disguise, look into these eyes, read between the lines, I'm just lost in this crazy world of mine, you'll never see me cry, tears never leave these eyes, some learn wisdom, seldom learn strength, a few know life, but all know me, why must you search for me, once you have me, its hard to leave me, be wise, I'll never let you go
Joseph Macias Sep 2013
Here we go again, this feels like a mystery, I'm inside of you, but I just can't read you, feeling like a crazy game, but this isn't Sorry, I know you see me try a lot, I know you do a lot, but for some reason we can't get together in the same slot, I'm hungrier then I've ever been, thirsty poets write as though they got nothing from with in, rhyming like tomato, tomahto, in need of a rhyming dictionary, save me from this misery, I'm the realist **** ever, I dare you to compete with me, trust me, I saw your arrival, but its time to go, you're about to go suicidal, let's end this with a goodbye and never say hello
Joseph Macias Aug 2013
Steal me away, but only for tonight
You are more to me then forever
Wondering and hoping in you
Letting go of the old in you
Your lost in your ways
Believing in you always
Tomorrow should never come
Today will end with tonight
Joseph Macias Aug 2013
As life starts to flow, try not to let it go, it might look like the end, but its just the beginning, doors may close, opportunity may walk by, remember... look away from suppose to be, keep your head up, its only life and its here to make us stronger
