Lucky number 40!!

I was doing really well for once
Felt on top of the world for longer than a second
Knew the direction I was going in
Knew what I had to do to get there
Put more thought into it all than I ever had before
Didn't wanna mess this one up
Was tired of my life falling flat on the floor
Had what I've always wanted in my reach
I was so close
It was one of the saddest almost's
my brain wasn't ready
My heart couldn't take it
The imaginary empire I built fell with one phone call
I couldn't control my anger
This one wasn't my fault
I couldn't even cry
I was used to this by now
Except this time I had someone to blame
Because everyone says take responsibility for your actions,
Nobody can ruin your life except you
But that's not true
It was this final straw that hit right at home
Nobody saw this one coming
I wasn't prepared, I didn't have a plan
To keep everything I had built intact
Now I'm building my empire from scratch again
Pushing even harder than before
I swear I'm not gonna end up like her
Going through hell and back to insure I can keep myself on track
Paranoid that something or someone was gonna come and knock it all down again
It's like I couldn't get a break
I've been fighting for this my whole life
A news year party and a bottle of Jack was what started it all
Now I'm Just trying to make it big
With some written words
Making personal mind movies around the world
It's always been my goal
To help as many people around the world as possible
And I don't care how many times I fall
Because even tho my anger doesn't fall thin light or whatever you wanna call it
I will stand up and rebuild my dreams
No matter how close the pain is or how hard it is to process.
