Life's a trip it don't make a difference
If you play the position of a broke bum with no pot to piss in
Or a millionaire with women everywhere and rocks that glisten
Just know the clock is ticking; one minute can be the ending of your life
A sight that I've seen up close, life's cutthroat
At age 15 is when I lost hope
Watching my momma die for years it starting sinking in
Her warm embrace and loving smile I'd never see again
I told her that and as I said it my tears flowed
I'm thinking to myself DAMN where did the years go
I coulda did better, I shoulda chilled mo (More)
She held me when I cried as if I was a year old
Still those times visit my mind
Divine soul, though often times cold with no feelings; I'm
Not a perfect man, but strive to be and giving up to me's a worthless plan
I finally see I'm the ruler of my own life
But even still I need someone i can hold tight
I need to chill cuz I feel myself chocking up
But to heal I release my thoughts and open up
Sometimes I get lost in my thoughts
Positives I keep while the negativity's tossed
And I...disregard talk haters will speak
And remind myself that I am the creator of peace

I jot my feelings in my pad to ease my mind
So if I'm ever feeling sad I read my rhymes
I was raised without a Dad, but cleaned my eyes
And stopped crying long ago cuz I need to find
Happiness without allowing life to crush my hope
Using nothing as a crutch that'll stunt my growth
You see we all have demons; the issue is when you
Look outside to fix the issues within you
External stimuli won't solve problems of mine
Happiness starts first with a positive mind
But I know in the dark the light is harder to find
And when you're losing your grip it gets harder to climb
Out that depressive state
But when you do it's true, you should expect the hate
Cuz some people hate to see you win
And misery and company have been the best of friends
