Life of My Own

As time flies

I can see in my mind's eye

that my fate cant be changed.

Oh how I wish I could rewind time

but I don't have regrets.

I don't believe the hype,

I believe whats right.

If you want to know the meaning of right

I guess you have to find the meaning of left,

that being said,

if you want to know the meaning to life

I guess you have to find the meaning to death.

 

I was raised by a girl so my views are subjected

but the world made me rude and objective

as a kid I never knew this was hectic

nobody taught me how to be an adult

I got ******* in the lesson

always hesitation

if i wanted to make move, i second guessed it

why? I don't really know

I'm just a kid

making myself look like a fool as I grow

 

who would've known

that my fate would be decided by God?

Or am I strong enough

to defy the odds?

 

 

It seems like there's so much pressure,

everyone says I have none.

Them saying I have no pressure

is the actual reason that I have some.

And its like i don't have a **** tongue

i cant talk for myself

because my mom is proud of her last son

I know i get it but

don't ever shove words in my mouth

before i can spit it up.

Give it up

you know you'll never break me

they already broke the mold when they made me.

Unique aura ever since i was a baby,

still a unique sense of humor

but you cant shape me.

No, you cant shake me,

its not that black and white.

I haven't even lived half my life

the devil came to me

and said i have one chance

so i took a roll

then smashed the dice.

 

who would've known

that my fate would be decided by God?

Or am I strong enough

to defy the odds?
