I sense purpose
I search for it
I seek direction

Feeling useless
feeling unfit
feeling misdirected

Living life selfish
living ungrateful
living with contradictions

Who ? You.... surface
Who? Me.... hateful
who makes these decisions

Hereditary. Possibility
hereditary, born to it
hereditary, these patterns

Adopted at birth
adopted from the start
adopted from past generations

Given the circumstances
given the facts
given the insecurities

Passed down
passed carelessly
passed with ignorance

I’m the chosen one
I’m the detective
I’m on the case

Studying myself
studying my loved ones
studying life eye to eye, face

Learning the mystery
learning The history
learning to love

Myself
them
her

Now
gone
done

My brain
my heart
my soul

All hurt
but not for
NOTHING

They hurt for me
they hurt for her
they hurt for them

A sign
a light
a sight

Finally I can see
finally I can read
finally I believe

Break free
break me
break from it all

Broken I was
broken I am
broken to this life

I’ll take myself
I’ll take this life
I’ll fix this mind of mine

My promise to myself
my promise to them
my promise to her
