My heart has been numbed by depression
My mind is exhausted from running
My persona is starting to crack
The lies are like weights on my back
I've been cornered by glasses and mirrors
Either face myself, or shatter my image
I'm grounded and trying to fly
The darkness like weight on my eyes
My voice once was strong now is soft
My soul is a lace with no tie to accompany
Tho my seeds will grow when it shines
Impatience is weight on my time
My heart has survived through depression
my mind can now run the distance
My persona was merely a mask
The lies were once weights for the truth
Now the truth is the strength of my back
I see myself in reflections
I'm starting to love who I am
What I called the sky, now i call a step
If I fly tell the sky my goodbyes
Darkness defines the light in my eyes
My voice can be strong, my voice can be gentle
my soul has more ties than a net
My soul is a light for my garden
I've learned how to wait on my time
The Alchemist passes negrado
the boy is becoming a man
I love many things that is true,
but also I love who I am
