I think about my life
and how this all started
Think about drinking and
smoking in my apartment
Think about reading and
writing but I'm in darkness
**** thinking, I did it
I just listened to what my heart said,*

"Be all you can Jimmy
and what you need
will ultimately be
what you really want.
You can shine, Jimmy
Put away the greed
Don't deceive, just believe
and encourage the love.
Continue to enlighten,
challenge, and question.
This is something special
within you that's so respected.
And as times grow harder
and begin moving faster
I'm here to harbor you
during that disaster
What really matters,
well that's up to you
You had a dream my child
Now let's make it come true!"
