Cigarettes and friends, so much alike,
Both leave a mark, an addictive strike.

Friends become cigarettes against the skin,
The longer you hold them, darkness creeps in.
Temptation grows, to smoke or see them choke,
Cancer sticks, ignited, a deadly yoke.

Many indulge, finding joy in the haze,
Inhaling warnings, a toxic craze.
Strangers' words are mere sticks and stones,
But with friends, pain accumulates, silently groans.

Deep into the lungs, the heart, the skin,
Friends can harm like cigarettes, buried within.
We smoke our friends, blinded by the wrong,
Forgetting the regret that will come along.

Lungs collapse, hearts fill up with despair,
Friends and cigarettes, both burdens to bear.
Quit cold turkey, but relapses sting,
Anything to escape the toxic clinging.

Friends or cigarettes, a choice to savor,
Both leave a bitter taste, an uncertain flavor.
In this dark dance, where toxicity thrives,
Choose wisely, for your soul to survive.
In the realm of endless possibilities, I stand,
Yearning for a life of purpose, hand in hand,
No longer content with mere distractions,
I seek a path that ignites my passions.

I cast aside doubts, fears, and hesitation,
Determined to turn dreams into realization,
No jest or jesters in this sacred quest,
I set sail on this voyage, giving it my best.

With unwavering resolve, I take the lead,
A captain of my destiny, fueled by a fiery creed,
Aboard this vessel, I embrace the unknown,
Charting a course to a destiny yet unshown.

Through turbulent tides and stormy seas,
I navigate with courage, the wind as my keys,
The sails unfurled, catching hope's sweet gale,
As I steer towards horizons where dreams prevail.

In the voyage of life, I find my devotion,
In the pursuit of purpose, a newfound potion,
I leave behind the shores of complacency,
Embracing a future filled with audacity.

So, let the waves crash and the currents sway,
I'm determined to make it through, come what may,
For within me burns a passion, fierce and true,
A catalyst for change, a force that will breakthrough.

No more wandering lost, seeking a new start,
I've found my calling, deep within my heart,
With every beat, it whispers a hopeful plea,
"Embrace this journey, and set yourself free."

So, onward I sail, a soul reborn,
With dreams as my compass, fears torn,
For I've chosen to live, to take control,
To write a story of triumph, forever unscroll.
In the realm of love, there's a sacred space,
Where family resides, their warm embrace.
Guiding us gently, in their steadfast grace,
They look upon us with unwavering face.

Through trials and triumphs, they keep us in place,
Cherished souls who filled our world with embrace.
With wisdom and patience, they showed us the way,
Allowed us to wander, explore and play.

In our times of need, they never receded,
Their love, selfless, and beyond what's conceded.
Through thick and thin, they stood undeterred,
Lending a hand, every burden shared.

For when life grew tough, and stress weighed us down,
Our family's love lifted us from the ground.
They picked up the pieces, with tender care,
Binding our wounds, showing us they're there.

In their presence, we find solace and peace,
A haven of love that will never cease.
For family's embrace, a treasure to hold,
A bond that endures, more valuable than gold.
A FOUNDATION MADE OF GLASS, shattered and worn,
A fleeting structure, never meant to adorn.
I embrace the darkness, never to pass,
Opportunity beckons amidst this morbid farce.

From the shards of my past, a story unfolds,
Each fragment, a reminder of secrets untold.
Peering through the wreckage, I seek to find,
The blades of grass on the other side of my mind.

An untimely crash marked our final fight,
The echoes of anger still haunt the night.
You demand my worth, my cash made right,
But now I earn in shadows, a thief in plain sight.

Tequila with a worm, my companion of despair,
I drown in its poison, lost in this snare.
Yearning for power, an eternal plight,
But time mocks my hopes, fading out of sight.

I hope these words reach you in depths unknown,
A soul descending, forever on its own.
Behind bars they may confine, my spirit prevails,
Bursting through the chains, freedom never fails.

Tell the warden, I don't sleep nor rest,
In the realm of creation, I'm forever possessed.
In my mind's battle against relentless bore,
Till the day I... Till the day I seek for more.
Didn't know what to think while upside down
Held me down
Just to drown
With a broken heart
Heart on my sleeve
That tends to bleed
When it's love I need
Need I say more
Xsploive lik dre and claymores
Hard to love when your claim your
Done with what we crave most
I stay haunted by  ghosts
That like to keep a chokehold
On my soul, heart stays cold
And haunted by the the thought of you
A FOUNDATION MADE OF GLASS
ALTHOUGH IT WASNT BUILT TO LAST
I DONT EVER WANT TO PASS
ON THE OPPORTUNITY
TO MAKE A STORY
OFF THE SHARDS OF MY PAST
SIFT RIGHT THROUGH TO SEE
THE BLADES OF GRASS
ON THE OTHER SIDE OF
THIS UNTIMELY CRASH
I HAD LAST NIGHT
IT WAS OUR LAST FIGHT
YOU  SAY YOU DONT WANNA
SEE ME TILL I GET MY CASH RIGHT
WELL NOW IM REALLY
EARNIN ****
WHILE I DRINK TEQUILA WITH
THE WORM IN IT
AND  STILL I HOPE TO GAIN
SOME POWERS THAT PERMANANT
BUT ONLY TIME WILL TELL
I HOPE THIS FIND YOU WELL
DEEP DOWN ONE
BUT JUST KNOW  ILL NEVERR FAIL
PUT ME BEHIND BARS
THEN IM BUSTING OUT OF JAIL
GO AND TELL THE WARDEN
I DONT SLEEP
I STAY RECORDING
IN MY MIND IM FIGHTING BOREDOM
TILL THE DAY I...
TILL THE DAY I...
You say that you always believe in me
then how come you always be leaving me
heard all the excuses from A  to  Z
the truth is something id pay to see
hold up now im just being honest
loyalty's something that shouldnt be promised
Let's work on this life like an overdue project
taking some time to fall in love with the process
get away from the people thats holding you back
they had a chance now you tell em too bad
investing the time you would normally lack
improving your future to keep it intact
know that this **** could be gone in a flash
i got no time to sit back and relax
steadily moving just getting some cash
itching for it like im getting a rash
over the counter i stay getting the cream
even if things are not what they seem
i still gotta scheme  saying full steam ahead
most of my bars wont go over your head
think about em
when you laying in bed
tip of my tongue all the words never said
guess imma put em in verses instead
wishing me luck like I would break a leg
