Not For Play Play, This For Real
If I never killed a man
My life never would have started
How did I write that, damn
But that’s when life became uncharted
Then I hit a curb and a bike
My path became an uphill hike
I hate that I step on death’s back
For my life to click on track
Popular and pretty and petty too
I had it going on, sad but true
I could have survived on a lie
Saying I was happy inside
But without that ending
My life was unbending
Smooth swerving into shit
A life without purpose, a blip
I tried to hide the fear inside
That fateful drive, not everyone survived
I became the villain of my own story
Forever changed and sorry
Today a person I could never envision
I stumble but rise up each day
I set intentions and have a mission
Keeping my fears at bay, I rise again each day
Bleeding out my dark past
Releasing the insecurities at last
Blood flows bright inside me
Bright now with the hope I see
