[hometext] => I wrote this to depict my take on that my life is built on my sole belief in truth and experiencing life while embracing the knowledge that I can't always live off of that truth in the real world.
[bodytext] => Can you paint it just the way it is no curley cues or highlights can you make them see whats in and whats out the pretty and the ugly it's all beautiful which ever way you wanna show all that counts is that it's truth and only truth can grow. It's a tree that knots and curls all up on it's own. It's ugly ugly battle scars the ones you hate and love. I wanna brush it on my skin and feel the scratch that's real Feel the dirt and rolling roots where I chose to fall and kneel. To climb her branches and endure the bruising the scraping and the fight I'll stay with her my lovely tree rain or sun and always day and night It's old. It's wise. It's survived the test of time. And what matters most to me is that it's only mine. I made it, formed it, breathed life into her branches It bears my mistakes My acomplishments It bore my enemies and romances And when the weight of truth's responsibilty has finally taken it's toll- When my tree leans and falls next to me- May my screams drown out it's toppling May my tears be the burial washing May I find something stronger to keep me walking on.
