In the middle of right and wrong
I must stay clear, I must stay strong.
For I have lived here everyday.
I do not falter, nor do pray...
...I come into that stagnant trap....
...when I'm not honest, I do tap...
...a vein that keeps me struggling
when I can not do the right thing.
I'm stuck between the obvious
choices that could be chosen; must...
...take responsibility today
'cause ups and downs are here to play...
...with my emotions centered so
that I can't free my self, let go...
...and choose to be the good or bad
to keep myself from going mad.
