Not always able to speak But can write for days Not a phase a clear mind New mindset onto new Can't do much ready to be set free The past is over not meant to be Let me be time to rise Years of holding up others Dead inside trying to exist Rather be living than pretending Not what others say Know the truth not listening to lies Free to think without being judged Speak without others thinking less of Have an opinion full of grace Here comes more criticism Out of my ear with ruckus Out of my face not intimidated anymore
