I come from a dark place But please, do not throw that in my face I have made my share of mistakes, And some are unforgivable, some are a disgrace But that is not who i am anymore For i have grown, i have changed I don’t aim for highs, i aim for lows I aim for happiness, and love Not things that can harm me, **** me, or hurt me I have seen the light, i have been set free For i am an addict, but i am recovering For my past is not my future And my future is not my past These feelings i have, are sure to last Because i am me, i am myself I am free, i am alive, i am no longer dead The demons, they have left, they have left my head The voices will always be there, But that’s fine, i don’t care I’ve proven people can change, people can grow I come from a dark place And that’s all anyone needs to know.
