Rise Again
No one knows what I’m capable of
With my brain and interchangeable love
I’m a product of the stars, molded into the moon
I’ve been falling so hard and I’ll get up soon
My heart knows I’m too weak
But I’m too upbeat to accept defeat
My dreams have been consumed by fear
Fear that I’ll be in the same spot in years
My talent hasn’t taken off
They tell me I gotta shake it off
I’m too stubborn to break it off
Instead of sleep I wake and toss
Laying in darkness but my mind is so bright
So instead of being a shadow I light up the night
I get back up to pick up pad and pen
And realize that my skills are heaven sent
Ironic enough I’m more than hell bent
To use words as a form to vent
See the lines give me hope
That someone will read what I wrote
And escape their tragedies
To live out their fantasies
