We move rather slowly
Just to show growth
Humble beginnings
Of the now know
Learning to forgive
In the matters of a sinner
Big shoes to fill
Small steps like caterpillars
Inching toward the measure
Distancing a perfect mile
Unforgotten disgraces
Disguised by perfect smiles
Prevalent ambitions
Tenacious decisions
Wise choices
But confusing missions
Not too fond of wishing
More of what I'm hoping for
Patience seem to take its time
But I know I need more
Reaching for my dreams
While others sleep in remembrance
Using my feet to measure
The miles for distance
And I prayed many days
That there would be a change
And my heart would keep on beating
That my soul may be free
Steady balance in my feet
And my past was really worth leaving
We're all fighting
And I hope not for the wrong things
Puppets play dumb silent
Ventriloquist pulling the wrong strings
And I dared to be light
In the cocoon of the dark
And break the wall that held me back
I stretched my wings
To show my strength
I was a butterfly just to match
