How do I breathe when I feel I'm stuck? Raised by a strong woman; I've never been one for giving up Or giving in Despite the odds and how my chances are slim If hard work pays, then I'll see in the end Until then, the struggle remains constant Enduring tribulation, trying to escape the nonsense And remained focused But honestly there's some days I can't cope with Life's constant motions A young mind wrote this, that same n***a that you joke with Has a mental that's highly explosive Mixed with emotions an artist expressing real life I breathe sunlight, illumination vividly done right My only problem is that I care To fight for another breathe of air Thorough the struggle and despair My mind is a weapon so in life I never fight fair Who am I? Just listen because I'm right here I went left when I should of went right Pedaling my bike solitary through these cold nights Just trying to clear my mind I'm blessed with sight, but can't see the light
So at night I search the streets pedaling my bike Just tryin' to clear my mind Keeping a steady cadenece Trying to breathe and push forth Remain calm and find a way to channel these thoughts But I fear I'm at a loss for words Reminisicng on the past and what's occured The rising sun and morning birds The faces I've known the places I've grown The nights I've spent with company Verses those that I've spent alone I need to clear my mind rethink and adapt Think before I react Properly stratagize my attack Progression is an obsession there's no holding me back Lone wolf without a pack, just a notepad to scribble raps I write and try to an*lyze how I feel I'm still numb to sensation how do I know what's real? Is there a cure to this insanity Was I given life with a purpose Was a destined path the plan for me I'm far from an answer but with time I plan to see What I can acheive if I close my eyes and make believe
