Struggling to come to terms with what is meant to be
Always got this cloud of drama hanging over me.
No matter how far I go or how quick I seem to move
I always seem to get caught up in this rugged groove.
...

We're all on the grind, we're paper chasing.
Tryin to get ahead, we're out here racing.
No one really knows what kind of future we're facing
So it's time to take charge, we need to stop pacing.
...

Back & forth bickering
Who's wrong & who's right?
Stop with the snickering
Who's winning this fight?
...

Eye to Eye
Lips to Lips
One hand through my hair, one hand on my hip
Passion emerges with every last kiss
...

God is good
God is great
I'm grateful for
the chance to make
...

I came into this world with nothing but a dream
As the years go by it gets much harder than it seems.
The trials & tribulations are just too much, I swear
To think there's not to be more than I can bare.
...

Your heart can't hide what it feels
And love is nothing but what it reveals.
One must learn to take the blows
The ups and downs that life can throw.
...

Arose from the tears
That held my head low
Found strength in my fears,
I learn as I go.
...

My heart can't break any more
No tears these eyes are looking for.
Gave all I had and bared my soul
Changed my life to play a roll
...

Your words are few but your actions speak loud
Don't give me that mess that you're too proud.
If you got something on your mind, spit it out
So it won't cause us to scream and shout.
...

I don't wanna hear it
You ain't got the spirit.
You're tearing me down every time you lie
You must got me twisted cuz I don't deserve to cry.
...

My mind is back in focus.
My heart is back in tact.
My tears have all dried up.
I'm headed back on track.
...

How is it that we can love but be filled with so much spite?
How can we be clever, if we don't know wrong from right?
How is there room to grow, if we don't learn from our mistakes?
How do we know when to fight with everything it takes?
...

I was raised with structure
I was raised with pride
Though the structure may not have been proper
I was raised to survive.
...

I'm shallow, I'm spiteful
I'll drag you through the dirt.
I'll find your weakest point then hit you where it hurts.
I'll play games with your head and make you a fool.
...

I'm caring, I'm kind
With so much love to give
I'll be by your side as long as you live.
I'll give you the world and all the stars above
...

You say that I can't be trusted.
You say that I'm unstable.
You say that my morals are rusted.
You say that I'm unable
...

I work my 9 to 5.
I work my 10 to 2.
Lately it seems like working
Is all I tend to do.
...

Lord, help me find my strength.
I feel like I’m losing grip.
Lord, take me by the hand
Hold tight, don’t let it slip.
...

When I don’t follow in your footsteps, you walk away
And when I’m my own person, you still don’t stay.
You exclude me from your group cause you say I can’t hang
When in fact it’s you who can’t maintain.
...
