Speak my mind like I'm preaching People listen because they can follow I speak loud and true as if teaching Their faults and insecurities need to go My voice revealing a new path to travel They realize they're not alone in the fight Hearts beating, life's woes to unravel Taking surer steps as if given new sight Unknown to them I keep my struggle Deaf to my own life changing advice All my problems and pain, I juggle Preach without practice, stuck in a vice I wish I could make my own choice To wake up and listen to my voice
