The moment seemed long
I felt society I didn’t belong
But that is what society wanted me to think
I was thinking like a weak link
I was released from Prison being incarcerated
I had committed a crime stealing cars
I was robbing but didn’t get far
While I was behind those Prison walls, I would often dream in being free
Yet it was associating the understanding being the key
It seemed like it was an illusion but it was all seclusion

I saw myself being a Self-Motivator
Now in other encourage others, I had to first inspire myself
Going out and encourage young people to not be a bad example from the streets
But don’t go to Prison being a moment of temporary or even permanent defeat
Turn your cell experience into enduring inspiration
Life does have appreciation but you have to look around and find positive circles that will enrich your spirit straight to your heart
Where there is a bad road, you will also find a good road
Society will say you have no place
It is all about taking the chance and being given a chance
This is the way one does advance
But society wants a bad person to be an automatic human delete as a waste
It becomes cope with a hesitate
But as a Former Inmate, it doesn’t have a take
You have value and it all started when you were born
There was a reason and a destiny with a purpose

However, long before Prison and bad habits, I went to College and earned two degrees, a Bachelors in Business Management and a Masters in Public Administration
Even though education was my start, I had built the foundation
But I see there is a question, so what happened of why I went into crime?
You see I had the education, but I mixed up with the wrong elements figuring I could get them to change, but it came reverse, they made me change thinking my education was nothing more than proving something to the Man
But I proved that I could sustain knowledge and make something of my life regardless of what negative people think
It’s all about turn around and move fast forward
But never dwell on sorrows within uncertain rivers
But despite Prison, I still have the education appreciation
However, you emphasize the value of you before Prison even came up
Yet don’t get fed up
Just continue to present and what you have established in your own component of life and what it represents

Quality being golden comes within
Assumption is thinking then into present
A bad situation can comer with a learning good ending
Ladder words is what will help you reach the top
REACH, ELEVATE, CLIMB, MOVEMENT, STEP BY STEP
When it comes to knowledge don’t stop
Knowledge is the key in giving you the know how
It doesn’t necessarily have to be college, but educate yourself in something that will make you a stand out as a commodity

When people try to mock
Just say and plain simple tone, you haven’t been where I was, but my life is enhanced with goodness from on high, and there is a good person inside with a heart
Cherish always being you
Understand your theory in being you but having no mistaken command
You are a person in which no one can change, but you that person who can rearrange
My dreams always have a full hope
It doesn’t make you a dope
Yet it comes with assurance you will always be able to cope.
