[bodytext] => I cant say that Im the best because if I said that Id be lying and Id upset the rest My life aint no fairy tale, no I aint never been to jail but I did stand on the corners and sell What we try to band from the streets but I didnt care, it kept Jordans on my feet. It kept nice clothes on my back So I could careless what you thought, I wasnt cutting you any slack. This world is so big, so I was forced to grow up fast But my growth wasnt like they planned so my life they looked past Didnt to much care about life and sometimes I have that feeling but I gotta overcome Cant stay down to long, gotta move on no time to look back at what Ive done. Didnt have a father in my life so I hated all man So hard to get through to my mom she would never understand Got tired of feeling sorry for myself got tired of crying buckets of tears Got tired of running for years for useless fears Had no real reason to run because Im a child of the Son But somehow I stared away and until this day I can say my walk still aint walking that way Did drugs, drank, sex all that mess Wish I could erase all of it so I wont have to deal with the stress Just want away out but theres no way out, shouldnt have got myself in Should have just listened to the old folks when they told me I wouldnt fit in Try to keep a positive attitude and outlook on things I keep telling myself everything is gonna be good But sometimes I feel hopeless....and misunderstood I know I shouldnt have these feelings because of who my Father is I cant keep beating myself up because of who my father is...(the other father) Get the feeling to quit but if I quit then my Father will just spit me out if His mouth Probably already there....probably took my name outta His mouth Pretty bad if He did because me and Him share the same name Emmanuel "God with us" is the meaning behind my name But I feel like Ive lost the value of my name...the meaning ain't the same... I thought it was all a joke...thought it was a game.... Thats why I cant get nothing right, that's why I feel like a lame.... Ive lost touch with where Im suppose to be but its not nobody elses fault...Im the blame Lord forgive me for my sins, give my name back the meaning that its suppose to give... I havent been living the life that Im suppose to live... I lost thing for a reason because it had no more to give... Tears are trying to come but I gotta be a solider I gotta be strong... I gotta hold on.....

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
