Change
I was 14, surprisingly still innocent and care free.
I remember countless hours of work with not a soul watching, just me.
I saw my life falling apart before my eyes.
I worried my agony would become as endless as night, and I'd become the second coming of Job.
I thought I was down for the count:but, I want to change.
I am 15 going on 40.
I think the world is a beautiful, dark, twisted fantasy.
I need to succeed (period)
I try to go back to that naïve state of mind.
I feel stressed, strained, and exhausted at the same damn time.
I forgive love, or the lack there of.
Now I can change.
I will be successful.
I choose to be relentless.
I dream of opulence and decadence, black diamond everything and a ten that isn't basic.
I hope I get it all, its what I strive for.
I predict myself paying more in taxes than most people make.
I know I won't be perfect, but I'll get what I desire because I outworked everybody for it.
I will change.
