My Own Worst Enemy


In a fight for my life and it’s not about you and me
it’s about a state of mind, it’s about having all the ability
and knowing you have it but you not rising to the switch
am I comfortable in this place
why do I torture my own soul by denying the transformation
that is on the tip of my nose, literally I can feel it in my soul
it’s there waiting on me
(Anonymous) are you ready, are you ready to really see
Lord I know you cut me this way
why do I deep down inside fight your saving grace
 
murder murder I kill my soul, I drown it out
through repetition, in the back of my mind
I know all rest with a decision, a simple decision
but I stay caught up in the mediocrity of life
entertaining and dumbing it down
I just say to myself I don’t belong in this place
why the heck can I not reside in the place I should
be Lord I know I am going in circles again
what is wrong with me
 
Lord for every stigma and demise that has been spoken over me
break those chains so I can be free, its holding me back in a false form of me
this I cannot fight, deeply rooted issues of no sense of belonging
feeling like there’s no love that is especially for me
no love of a mother and father loneliness clouds my heart and my soul deep inside
God I don’t know all you have in store for me but the devil has his foot in my chest
he got a grave for me, where he can rejoice that a slain soldier never made to a general in the
war
A liar I know he is cause somehow someway I know he will have to salute me and take a bow
I’ve been fighting for so long with minimum elevation, I am my own casualty at this point
I paid my dues and desire to watch young soldiers rise not be in the same battle
 
Lord your daughter…..I know you will work this out through the will of me
