uncontrolable emotion

Uncontrollable Emotions 
Overwhelm me tonight
It's like I can't do nothing right
But maybe that's life
 
Self discover and development 
Without quittings essential 
Can't be discouraged
by the judgemental or u may go mental
 
Trying to reach full potential
And preparing for the worst
Avoiding sinning and remember 
Winning comes last because first
 
U must learn to take loss
So u appreciate bein victorious
Learning to cope with los
s and not taking for granted what's glorious 
 
Just breathing. Just living 
Exercising your free will
Embracing imperfections
and realizing the little things can still
 
Make u smile if only for a while 
Walk a mile in the shoes
Of the ones u criticize to quickly 
The slope is slippery cause you
 
Will too be criticized
so don't epitomize a close mind 
Be loyal, be conscious be humble 
And be kind
 
Don't try to rewind, pay mind
To the current time
Just take the past mistakes
as lessons and try not to be blind 
 
When deception needs correction
Don't be afraid to asks questions
And remember "what you know"
may need further inspection
 
Don't think with an erection
That direction is wrong
Cause being a king con
don't make u King Kong just be strong
 
And deny your temptations
follow your dreams and heart
Sometimes the right thing is
not the move that's the most smart 
 
But me all play our part and depart
It's assured
Nothing's given nothing's promised
Nothing's fully insured
 
Preventions better than bein cured
So Procure the best
Way to live without nefarious intentions
so when u manifest
 
The dreams that u possess u don't
Harbor regret
Self resentment lacks contentment 
Leading to stress
 
It's confusing so I'm concluding
with improving myself
Before intruding with
passing judgement on anyone else
 
It's hard to say help
But it's even harder to know
That it is all that separated you 
From reaching your goals
 
And when u know you make
the wrong decision it leads2a hollow you
And it's bad and even sad
when your shadow won't even follow through
 
With having to follow u 
Life will swallow you whole
Or damn u to self destruction
as u dig while in a hole 
 
 Like time precious is your soul
The preservation of knowing
That a righteous path lead u
to the place u are going 
 
And sometimes only throwing 
Urself at the mercy of wuts destined 
Can bring u to the answers
of your ultimate questions 
 
There's no manual or map
to show you how to travel
Only instinct and experienc
can guide u in your battles 
 
But to find comfort in solitude
When your alone with your thoughts
You must be able to justify
your actions if your later forced 2 watch
 
And relive what u have done when
Its Too late to change the cards
At the moment u
better be able to be to face who you are 
 
And knowing that
good intentions can't outweigh the fact
That you didn't follow through with
Them if not proven on your path 
 
So as I resist the natural desire to
Be consumed by greed
When temptation whispers
how easy it is2 see ur want as a need
 
But if I feed into it I can only
blame myself for what I become
And then all that can be found
is being dumbfounded by just how dumb
 
I can be. So all I can be is who I am 
Unless I choose 
To refuse who I am and be
what I'm not which is self hatred confused
 
Leaving more than a bruise
On my ego And pride
And my true character
unlike my tears will no longer b easy to hide
 
So I encourage the courage
to accept the things I wish were reversed
And come to terms with my wrong turns
needing no purpose for birth 
 
Just the realization that limitations
May be a blessing disguised
And be content with the things
I cannot hold as a prize 
 
Cause some things weren't meant
for my eyes or for my possession
Sometimes the lesson for progression
is the only conception 
 
That was meant for me
and intentionally eventually ill find
That the most important thing is
Ensuring my own mind
 
Is a sanctuary built with the
knowledge that my position
In life was not what I wanted
but all I needed or else it's a prison 
 
And when your own mind
is your prison u won't get parole
It's forever there like
the stain that now tainted the soul
 
Never finding a piece of piece,
so I am careful in construction 
While building the building in my mind
So it doesn't end in destruction...
