When he is away he thinks all day About his unknown future to come, His past which has become Part of his building blocks, To the steps he has driven to rise on. Without a tough background He would never have found In his heart the right way, the only way On his own way today He carries himself high in a new way He pleases himself everyday With more people, he now shares this all day About the lessons where he fought for what he got. From himself, from no one else, anywhere else Now sharing his feelings He can redeem his true healings Pushing the sorrows away, painting them astray Knocking the graves out of his way He no longer suffers all day Instead he reaches away. |

Gold chains and diamond rings Money clips full without an ease Making money from the streets That is how he has risen to his feet Doing what he has to, he makes his deeds come too Its not easy as seen on the big-screen T.V. With life comes reality at a young age With no one to guide or show him the right way He was stuck outside without a place to hide As he grew older he became tougher at heart Until he met a woman whom would give his life to him Back, reborn, his childhood within him and a child with him She is now the key and meaning to his life He will kill for her on any given Sunday With one wife, one daughter, and three sons He doesn't yet know how to become A role model for the young ones He tries hard and harder he tries With his feelings always on the line Last night I felt his real side So I will no longer hide with lies But speak the truth with my mind and eyes |

He's fought hard to maintain his life It hasn't been easy or soft spoken It almost kept him broken, until He came out and begun to show his real emotions From cries of hate, come tears of joy For he has said nothing yet The fear of his past will always remain Telling those who can feel his pain Tired and worn out he continues to struggle and maintain But with new goals in mind, he now has time Instead of smoking his time away He now has learned to write the other way His mind is a never ending maze of thoughts Continuing into his sleep, he still has visions of what he used to be More out going than ever before, His peers now respect him more For the moments they once shared, he will treasure theirs too It is now time, to move on and speak to others People on the downside, looking up, trying to escape from I lend them my hand, in return I ask for nothing, But share a piece of mind For I know how hard it is to let something out Something so painful no one could understand, but are you Ready to take their own lives, ours It's our time now, I hope you join me now |

As helping THC sets him asleep Voices begin speaking to me Its the only time he can dream His mind is free He thinks of what he could be And it appears to him Dreaming away his mind is at ease His efforts fearless As he realizes he is me With the sun rising behind a mountain, full of range A picture for picture is set for the best He gets up, awakened, formed into an ice cube Slowly rising to his feet, he grabs his fishing rod With only one person ahead of him, leading the way They find a perfect fishing hole, to start the day So he ties his fly, on to his line, Looks to the river and casts high Gazing into the endless meadows of life, The smell of nature catches his breath Another cast is made into the crystal stream, Peace is the only word to express what he sees Oh how I love the woods And how they set me free |
