chorus:
i keep still
thoughts kept to my mind
my heart stalls..
till i write another rhyme
i hold fast
to the things that i know
they can't slow me down
they can't over through

verse 1:
my patience, never gave me peace of mind
i rush by any help that i can find
it comes full circle, the nights never late
my brain never sits, my heart never aches
i wish i never knew, so i couldn't hide
i wish i kept my mind clear, but instead i tried
my logic made me lie, my pride showed through
i wish i had a scare, so maybe i would have knew
And all this time I thought I knew it all
I always stayed aggressive so they couldn't make me fall
And how it came back to me how it truly feels
The lessons were learned, bridges burned, fate sealed
I take my time slow, and listen to the Signs
The promise will stay, if I let their trust climb
And rhyme after rhyme I'll find a reason to play it
To let the air clear, bring the voice back and say it

verse 2: *
I never was taught how to let my heart rest
Instead I let it pound through the cage in my chest
The blood flows in and out, slowly through my veins
The tension that I cause stops anything from change but
i keep positive, i breathe in and out
i walk up and down, and i never hit a drought
the time take-in from the night brings light to
a brand new day-to-fix anything not right
and i…
keep calm, but steady like the wind and
i listen to the rain drop sharp like a pin and
my mind wears thin but its sharp like an axe cuz
Ive been focused in but I’m almost at the max and
my passion will last cuz i know it cant break if
my plan stays up i can win that race cuz
i let that pain go, and blend into the past
anticipating life when i won’t come in last
so i…
