Fix Myself
I want to fix myself
Gather up the pieces
Work it all out
And solve my problems
Catch these butterflies
And control them
Stand up and face
These fears that constrain me
Ground the nervous shaking
Of this vessel of mine
Cut out the helplessness
And tattoo over the past
Mistakes and regrets
Faults and wrong intents
I've admitted and been shamed
But learnt lessons all the same
No one will ever forget
And forgiveness takes time
So I fell and scarred
My mind and conscious
I want peace
I want a brand new start
To run away and be
The person I aspire in my heart
I fell behind on life
Chasing society as it passed me by
Career and money
Trying to keep up, keep face
Wrong decisions
Blocked paths
Someone else kicked me down
And held my fate in their hands
I needed that job so bad
My desperation was the motivation
The reference never got written
And I never got the chance
I need peace
I want freedom
I chase the life of content
To have no guilt or worries
I got lost
Still stuck finding the way
And a little part of me
Gives up everyday
