Sometimes It's harder to face ourselves then to face the world

To everyone who's ever told me I won't make anything of myself. That I'm a waste or a failure. Here's to you:


I wish you knew who I am today instead of from the memories that you've washed away you won't let yourself think back everything's gone black you've lost track of yourself how can you look at me and and disagree with everything you once knew time flew and there's no rewind so i grind my teeth and bite my tongue ive hung myself from the very last word of the very last letter, "I hope things get better" i cant forget her i forget to forget it, how ironic, i admit. but i commit not to spit lines that don't fit but im split in two make me whole fill the hole in my soul so i know im not alone turn around and i've found im a rebound, hows that sound? kinda outta bounds, but im not trippin keeps you from rippin out my heart im not slippin i'll keep guard and my heart hard only scarred once it was one to many learned my lesson like a tool got played like a fool but ive been just as cruel but i've realized real eyes see through lies so i dropped that habit couldnt stand it wouldn't have it so ive grown up took time to mature and i assure you my new heart is pure if you only knew me now you'd think "how?" but you'd be like "wow.. ow owww" haha just messin but you'd see my progression if you'd open your eyes i wont say "told ya so" cuz i know how that goes wont throw it in your face we can erase the past replace it with our future as we suture up the emptiness you're too proud to look at me for who i've become numb to my words wont succumb to my tries to make you realize who i am. If you saw who i am today, maybe you'd want to stay.
