The building im building
Uncontrollable Emotions
Overwhelm me tonight
It's like I can't do nothing right
But maybe that's life
Self discover and development
Without quittings essential
Can't be discouraged by the
judgemental or u may go mental
Trying to reach full potential
And preparing for the worst
Avoiding sinning and remember
Winning comes last because first
U must learn to take loss
So u appreciate bein victorious
Learning to cope with loss and not
taking for granted what's glorious
Just breathing. Just living
Exercising your free will
Embracing imperfections and
realizing the little things can still
Make u smile if only for a while
Walk a mile in the shoes
Of the ones u criticize too quickly and trip
swiftly as that ***** is slippery cause you
Will too, be criticized so don't
epitomize a close mind
Be loyal, be conscious be humble
patient And be kind
Don't try to rewind, pay mind
To the current time
Just take the past mistakes as
lessons and try not to be blind
When deception needs correction
Don't be afraid to asks questions
And remember "what you know"
may need further inspection
Don't think with an *******
That direction is wrong
Cause being a king con don't make
u King Kong just try to be strong
And deny your temptations
follow your dreams and heart
Sometimes the right thing is not
the move that is the most smart
But we all play our part
and depart nothing else Is assured
Nothing's given nothing's promised
and Nothing's fully insured
Preventions better than bein the cured
So Procure the best
Way to live without nefarious
intentions for less tension to help manifest
The dreams that u possess but never
Harbor regret
Self resentment lacks contentment
Leading to stress
It's confusing so I'm concluding
with improving myself
Before intruding with passing
judgement on anyone else
It's hard to say help
But it's even harder to know
That it is all that separated you
From reaching your goals
And when u know you make the
wrong decision it leads2a hollow you
And it's sad when your shadow won't even
follow through
With having to follow u
Life will swallow you whole,
or **** u to self destruction
as u dig while in a hole
Like time precious is your soul
The preservation of knowing
That a righteous path lead u
to the place u are going
And sometimes only throwing
Urself at the mercy of wuts destined
Can bring u to the answers
of your ultimate questions
There's no manual or map to
show you how to travel
Only instinct and experience
can guide u in your battles
But to find comfort in solitude
When your alone with your thoughts
You must be able to justify your actions
if your later forced 2 watch
And relive what u have done when
Its Too late to change the cards
At the moment u better be able
to be to face who you are
And knowing that good intentions
can't outweigh the fact
That you didn't follow through with
Them if not proven on your path
So as I resist the natural desire to
Be consumed by greed
When temptation whispers how
easy it is2 see ur want as a need
But if I feed into it I can only blame myself
for what I become
And then all that can be found
is being dumbfounded by just how dumb
I can be. So all I can be is who I am
Unless I choose
To refuse who I am and
be what I'm not which is self hatred confused
Leaving more than a bruise
On my ego And pride
And my true character
unlike my tears will no longer b easy to hide
So I encourage the courage to accept the
things I wish were reversed
And come to terms
with my wrong turns needing no purpose for birth
Just the realization that limitations
May be a blessing disguised
And be content with
the things I cannot hold as a prize
Cause some things weren't meant
for my eyes or for my possession
Sometimes the lesson for
progression is the only conception
That was meant for me and intentionally
eventually ill find
That the most important thing is
Ensuring my own mind
Is a sanctuary built with the
knowledge that my position
In life was not what
I wanted but all I needed or else it's a prison
And when your own mind
is your prison u won't get parole
It's forever there
like the stain that now tainted the soul
Never finding a piece of piece,
so I am careful in construction
While building the building in my mind
So it doesn't end in destruction...
