Time Flies

Man time sure flies , I've got so better no more cries. 

 

Was I alone then or am I more now , no more stage fright I can proudly bow.  

 

I thought I had best friends but I was just blind , finally got a job I'm on my grind.  

 

I stopped going out and worked on my rhymes ,  I think I forget how to relax at times. 

 

Everyone used to call me and ask if I'm okay , now I'm lucky if I even get a hey. 

 

I used to help everyone a lot for a while , but when I need help there's no number to dial. 

 

When it comes to work I'm still killing it , but teachers still talk down to me like I'm an idiot. 

 

As the year went by I felt as if I was drifting with no embrace ,  as life throws more challenges in front my face. 

 

Was apart of everything but now I've gone solo , just a couple more months till they see me in a famous photo. 

 

Loved deep conversations till I had to make them short , I happened to block off society using a fort. 

 

The more books I read the more my mind got strong , the shows I used to love are so wrong. 

 

I know more about what's wrong and what's right , and to bite my words to not cause a fight. 

 

My parents seem to finally understand ,  that I don't need them to hold my hand. 

 

I'm finally a day closer to my dream , problems thrown and flow like a stream.  

 

Man time sure flies , I've go so better no more cries.
