I guess being by myself isn’t really a bad thing Especially considering all that is happening In my mind; in that place that I don’t even want to be It’s a selfish trait to ask anyone to come and save me Why is that in these walls the isolation is embraced It’s like I cannot be hurt at all so it’s where I stay to be safe But at the same time why do I want to fill this empty space Am I talking about these walls or where my heart used to be placed? I just want to be able to feel again so I am no longer numb But every time I let someone in I get caught up looking dumb. It’s a dangerous game when it comes to the mind It’s a tough opponent to beat for it’s one of a kind You see it’s constantly changing and consistently evolving Every day creating problems but never problem solving. Every time I think the game is won and I have a checkmate My mind just looks and laugh and says “Ty your too late”. You can never beat me for I already know what you are thinking Stick with what you know kid. your drug, hoes, and drinking So no matter what I do in life I am just destined to lose Constantly relapsing for her love like dope head who drools. How did I get here how did I allow my mind to get like this? I got so wrapped up in pleasing others that I lost myself up in the mix So Where do I go to find me where is it that I start. I dont dare to listen to my mind and **** sure not my heart. Maybe one day I will figure it out you know if it’s not too late I just hope that I make it to the day that I see my mind straight
