I know happiness is the ultimate goal I know our potential to matter is limitless I know the universe is infinite I know that we're never the person we were a fraction of time ago The fact is the only thing that is what we are, is our memories Our memories help us choose a future Our memories help us to reminisce Our memories remind us of what we planned to do and didn't They remind us if what we planned to do and did, and did so thoroughly we're proud like ants who take down scorpions We may work better together but hey Look at what I just did alone Because its alone that we find out what were made of It's as an individual we find out we will make it Sometimes I wonder how far I'll make it But my past is always there to remind me, that everything I stack falls down Everything I lack, might never come around But thats okay, I'm not going in circles anymore Sometimes I hear the wind say owe As it hits the window And I open up to see what's wrong I soon find out it's trying to find out how to runaway from the sun And I say, if you can't take the heat get out of the sky And then it swoops back to me and whispers I try My past is always here to remind me Everytime I slack, I get more down And everytime my hope is hit by apathy's flak, my persona continues to crack, and revealed is a bigger frown Tonight I lay on my ******* Wondering if my life will ever be on track And if I even want it to My past is always here to remind me That my battles bring hope back around That my good knights bring doubt to the ground That these vessels of words forge royal sounds That hard ships sculpt crowns
