I Say To You

I am well versed
Not because it is rehearsed
But because I have been tried
Time and again
Through those times, tests and trials
I have gained
Strength, courage and wisdom
Growth
So I encourage you to press
Onward, upward and forward
Because the Good Book says
Do not become weary in well doing

Joy

I wear yellow today
Because I am happy
Death finally came
And I buried you
No, I am not morbid
I had to put that to rest
The old me is gone

Afloat

Why can't I fly away
Why can't I go away
This place
Why do I feel trapped here
Struggling to stay afloat
Looking for the life boat
Looking for the life
Here

Stunts and Shows

Life is all just a show
Even with you
I expected more
That's what you told me
I believed all the stories
Never again, will I be that naivee
Time tells the truth
You put on a face each night
Getting ready for your performance
I watched
Not knowing that I wasn't in the audience
I was apart of the act
Stunting on me
Like I was one of the hoes
Could this really be me
Living for the moment
Tricked into something that
I said I would never do
Trusting in this sense, is new
I learned my lesson
