As deep as my thoughts are
I have high expectations so I must set the bar
Not slightly, but well over par
My dreams are in the distance but yet so far
I strive to be great but sometimes I think I'll break
But not my bones
I'll break my mind
My brain will commit suicide
Leaving my thoughts to go run and hide
Scared to come out
To stand up for one another
My words
I can't speak
I can't think
I'm getting higher as I sink
This is not the Titanic, this is me when I think
I'm trying
Wake up crying
Go to sleep dying
Sometime, I think I'm flying
On top of the world
Then a tornado comes and I'm caught in the swirl
People say I'll never learn
Because they told me to give up
Either that or step my game up
Never positive feedback
It's not me but it's them that lack
Common sense
I've been doing this since
I was 17
Almost five years
Listen not with your mind but with your ears
I will never give up
I'm always stepping my game up
Knee deep in the sand but my chin is up
Fall down seven times
I will get up
Eight times
Take control of the planet
This shit is mine
My voice will be heard
I am more than a turd
I will never turn
Rogue
I will remain bold
Until I'm old
Knee deep in the ground
Still looking around
At the stories I've told
Even if it's just one, at leave I've told
The newer generation
To tell their kids
When they get old
