And I draw myself into alignment
Escaping from overwhelment
Taking on my assignment
Recognizing dreams not on consignment
Digging up one’s foundation in the darkest of basement
Listen, when did you submit to lies
And deferred your own dreams
Failing in attempts to fit in while your soul scream
Looking in the mirror, I ask myself
Where did you go to hide
Why must you purge light from the inside
And how long will you stay on this return
Greatness isn’t for sale
or is it
Deferring dream markets a good return
When investing in the system
Where do you invest?
In the treasure?
or in your breast?
