I'll grow a better man yet, mom and dad. I'll prove to the world that I'll end up more than what you said What is it that made you doubt What is it that kept me afloat through all the obstacles, through all the hell Gritting my teeth, clenching my fists, an every day punishment, somehow I managed to beat every fear into submission, admitting I'm right, saying I'm right.
I have spent my entire life under such bad assumption The world had me cornered with the truth So I made myself a new life.
Would it kill you just to listen? Did you even think to ask me why I get so tired Could you let me speak I get so tired Of this beaten routine
I have spent my entire life Feeling lost and scared But the wish to believe in what I want Was stronger than anything you said
My voice has grown since my conception A part that I could call my own, a lovely tone, a frightening noise, everything is safe if I make it, breaking from the comfort and stability, barely moving, I am free. My vision sits below the window, Soaking in the warmth of the sun, the frigid air, the silent cold, the in between of everything. Only making sense of what I want. Every living thing will die and that's fine
Take my skin and love me always I want you to know I am free
I'm the product of affection As much as I've struggled, honestly, I cannot blame you for caring, carrying everything, pulling all of my weight, fixing my mistakes.
All of the time that I've wasted on running, on excuses, and apathy It's now a part of me It's a light shining down, showing everything And it's clear to me, No matter what I do, No matter the path that I choose As long as I'm choosing to move I will then realize that My life is complete
