I'm no longer running
I'm facing my fears
A flood of emotions
And shedding some tears
Time keeps on ticking
The passing of years
And I'm picking up speed
So I'm switching the gears
Now I'm living this life
But not in control
I pray for forgiveness
And cleansing my soul
I'm not giving up
I'll give it my all
God picks me up
Everytime that I fall
Spent years in the dark
The Hell in my mind
My vision distorted
cause Evil will blind
For me to leave Hell
The cost was immense
Losing my loved ones
It doesn't make sense
And I'm still alive
Sometimes I ask why
It doesn't seem fair
I'm not scared to cry
Now I have a purpose
It's time to give back
But I still need guidance
And that's just fact
I like who I am
I don't wear a mask
Being authentic is no easy task
People will judge me
But they have no right
Their losing the battle
I'm winning the fight
I'm out of the darkness
I only see light
For years I felt wrong
But now I feel right
