I Want Out
And one day I just looked in the mirror
I took a real look in the mirror
I realized, I hadn’t become any better
I wasn’t happy
This smile wasn’t genuine
I was still lost
I had made progress, little progress, but progress nonetheless
And somehow, I was back to the beginning stages
Only this time, I didn’t recognize how depressed I actually was
I had created my own little world
Where everything wasn’t perfect but good enough instead
It was worst now, I had become complacent
I had become what I feared,
“The person okay with life”
Letting it take me where it wanted to take me
Instead of setting my own footsteps and paving my own path
I didn’t deal with things, I just bottled them
Or even worst ran from them
I had being letting my fears take place of my emotions
And at the same time allowing the fears to keep me from showing myself
I fear love
That’s why the people I care about never feel what I want to show them
That’s why talks between me and my ex never have a positive vibe to them anymore
I’ve become a ball of negative energy
I’ve become the person that runs when they begin to feel something
I’ve become the person that pretends to feel nothing
I’ve become the enemy
And now, I see where I went wrong the first time
My effort isn’t the best
I give up on myself easily
Therefore, it’s easier to give up on others
And never be surprised by the actions and words
That’s my mindset
…or was my mindset
This time I’ll do better
Because I know where I went wrong
I tried to do it alone
But Lord, you know I need your help
I’m stuck I a rut…and I want out.
