I'll climb the highest mountain,
That's been used a lot.
I'll do whatever it takes,
Until the needle drops.
I'll always be here for you,
Until you change on me.
Deception in so many words,
Is what I truly see.

I'll catch a grenade for you,
Wait, no I won't.
Cause if life is worth living,
Then I should live too.
I'll take my heart out and hand
It to you, naw I can't.
Cause that would mean that
I gave you my lifeline while
You couldn't even give me a hand.

I'll run far for you, I'll make the
Earth shake, but I don't think it's
Right when you personify fake.
A challenge, I will take it, at any
Time, but time is lost, so you ain't
On my mind. Sacrifice everything for
A happy ending, all while some
Love pretending. That's when I smile
And see that everything has a *******
Ending.

Don't judge me for my mind, the brain
Sometimes takes over, but I will pour
My heart out till the blood is over. I don't
Study kindness, I just speak what I feel,
So many years and Lord knows that I have
Fought to heal. My Best friends they know
Me. Especially My Brother from another
Mother, cause he's the one that's seen me
Go through **** and motivates me to see
That pain is what made me stronger.

I'm just a regular dude, with a different
Thought process, but all I want is for me to
Be the same guy that I was before I was 18,
A good boy just having fun with his friends,
Playing basketball at all times a day, from Peterson Park, to the Alley. From sitting across my Best friend before work, with a
Bottle of tequila, listening to Music before
We did our dirt. Sometimes remembering
The bad is a curse, but without remembering
The bad, I understandI could be worse.

The decisions we make are what mold us
No matter what. It's what's kept me grounded so I ain't stuck. A quick shout out to my Angel,
Who never left me a lone, but gave me so
Much insight so I would never feel a lone.
Love.
- Gio
