This Is My Wake Up Call Poem by Lance Mead

this is my wake up call
this is my song
this is my changing point
from what i did wrong

now to my future
now to my life
this is for me
goodbye to my strife

learn from the past
think far ahead
im now the winner
no longer two in my head

am i crazy
i think i was
i don't know where it came from
just because

this is my wake up call
this is my song
this is my changing point
from what i did wrong

a simple troubled man
with a split tempered soul
is no longer apart
he is now whole

working by his rule
for filling his dreams
his path is chosen
like a diamond it gleams

this is my wake up call
this is my song
this is my changing point
from what i did wrong

no more about others
for he will go nowhere
but he is not about evil
the man still cares

he will work for himself
to honor his own pride
never to be confused again
heart and mind never collide

this is my wake up call
this is my song
this is my changing point
from what i did wrong

too his friends and his family
he honors them well
he will never again
put them through hell

life throws you a bone
and gives you a chance
make sure you see it
before you can no longer dance

this is my wake up call
this is my song
this is my changing point
from what i did wrong
