FINALLY I've made it As I throw my fist in the air And show the world my widest smile I rejoice with everything in me For I, have finally made it I let out the deep sigh That I've been holding in Since I crossed the starting line I stand still, I stand firm And I stand tall For I, Joshua Humphries, have finally made it No more looking back The point of destination has been reached Didn't think I would make it People threw knives And words that cut me deep But I went past the forks in the road And with my head held high I went straight For I, Josh Humphries The one that even doubted himself, Has finally made it I traveled far, And FINALLY, After all the beams of sweat fell from my forehead, And continued down to my eyes I admit At first, I couldn't tell if they were showers of sweat or tears BUT WHATEVER THEY WERE, I pulled them away from my blinded eyes And after rowing down my own streams For I, Have found love For I am content, I need no more than what I have All I need now is you to be in your presence The one that fills my cup, And seems to always overflow It's the one that always gives And gives more than I need It's the one that looks at a shattered boy, And has the time to piece me, Back together, but better The one that greets me in the morning The one that makes me stand taller The one that makes me run farther Streams, nor serpents, nor words Can stop this, I used to be infatuated with The clothes, But because of you, The things that fuel and motivate me Are seeing you, making goals, And having dreams to focus on I pray that someday in the future My best friend will never become my enemy I give you all of me, Because it's all I can offer As I'm here reciting this to you I might be stumbling on my words, **** I do stumble on my words a lotIt only happens when I speak from the heart, Just know that you're one of the best things To happen to me in my young life So as I give the world my widest smile And throw my fist in the air, I give you the other one And rejoice, As I can finally say, I made it, I found, love

FINALLY
