I calm my own storm these days
Never venting my problems to others
I pull myself out
of my own bad thoughts
I figure things out
my own way
I am more careful now
of the person I portray
I watch the things I say
I give way to pray many times in the day
I take things as they come
Like a Tree I sway
My actions match the words I speak
Every now and then
I give myself a little tweak
To ensure I remain on the path I seek
I embrace the good people I meet
I let the rest go with ease
I allow myself to enjoy many
of lifes treats
But I am careful of the habits I keep
Ensuring I'm living a balanced life
Standing on both feet
No matter where I'm going
I feel complete
Nowadays getting plenty of sleep
I tread where few might go
I go in real deep
Fearless of the darkness
The light within is all I need
One thing I have realized indeed
You must get lost to be found
But once found life becomes profound
In ways you never imagined see
You simply gotta believe
Above all else be proud
Always be thankful
you are above ground
Don't be afraid to be bold or different
Dont be afraid to Go the distance
Be certain to stand out in a crowd
I know how to MooVe the masses
I know how to get loud
I also know how to whisper
Seeking the path of least resistance
I get around
obstacles that are persistent
Its necessary in life to make a difference
Especially in the way you think
for instance
What matters most are
the little things in life like my existence
The air I breathe
The sun shining on my face
I am but humbled by each day I'm given
I am Blessed in so many ways
To be this man I am portraying
This is simply how I'm living
To be here is a gift,
that's all I'm saying
