Pouring this out
I feel like i want to
The thing is that i
Don't know if i have to.
It's been a lot
Since this and since that
I've been through some changes
I have been through life.
I needed some time
To stop and to think;
Days kept going
But i got reliefed.
Because i acted stupidly
I was so naive
The kid following the guy
Whom candys promised him.
Now i laugh about it,
I keep acting neat
God's made me better
Though i still deal with it.
Cause i'm still kinda hurt
Not by him and not by God
More like by myself
Because how could i do so?
I know i'm not special
I don't think i'm that cool
But i did think i was smarter
Than the girl on that book.
I'm trying to be honest
I'm trying to be real
I unrecognized me for a moment
And i'm ashamed of what i did.
"I got it under control
It's okay, we're okay"
Lies i was telling
Just to convince myself.
And oh, how stupid!
I'm kinda mad at me
Because oh, how stupid!
I had everything to win.
And it's true, i won
But in a different way
Not like i could have
Not like i should have.
Cause now i got this scar
Not really that deep
Not even that ugly
But a scar as it is.
It's there to remind me
What i already knew:
Every choice has consequences
And sometimes for good.
