There I Am

Sittin' on the couch, just me and my screen, Scrolling through the channels, living in a dream. Bills stackin' up like they're playing a game, Wonderin' why I'm losin' but can't share the blame. Playing the victim, my own worst enemy, Countin' the days, but I can't seem to see. Caught in my loop, like a hamster on a wheel, Lost in the pixels, forgetin' what's real. I'm a ghost in my own haunted land, Wishing on dreams like grains of sand. I can't catch a break, don't know who I am, No matter where I go, there I am. Then one fateful night, the light flickered on, Caught in my thoughts like a childhood song. "Who's in the way?" whispered deep in my soul, It's the choices I made that took their toll. Like a jigsaw puzzle, I saw the missing piece, No more excuses, it's time for release. I'm ready to change, leave my vices behind, Step into the light, let my spirit unwind. It's a shift in the weight, can you feel the hand? The tighter the chains, the stronger I stand. A spark in the night, I'm ready to slam, No matter where I go, there I am. Had to drop the late nights, the junk food delights, Trading in dreams for those hard-fought fights. Waking up early, I could fear the dawn, Trading sleep for a chance, I'm ready to spawn. Detoxing my habits, 'cause I'm chasing the prize, Sometimes you gotta bleed to cut through the lies. Like a phoenix in flight, I'm starting to soar, Resilient and true, can't ignore what's in store. I'm re-claiming my time, it's my new command, No more stuck in the mud, I'll rise on demand. The road may be long, but I'm ready to fam, No matter where I go, there I am. Self-educated, I'm climbing the stacks, Building my skills, now I've got no cracks. Time management game, no more sleepwalking, Writing my goals, can you hear me talking? Crafting my future like a sculptor of dreams, Navigating the currents, I'm bursting at the seams. Learning each lesson as it comes into view, I'm sharpening my tools, got a plan and a crew. I'm the captain of storms, watch the waves in my hand, Mapping my fortune, with each grain's demand. The tides may be rough, but I'm ready to fam, No matter where I go, there I am. Now I'm dancing on air, dreams lighting my way, The seeds that I've sown are starting to sway. Fighting for my chance with a heart full of fire, Turning my visions into something higher. A future that's bright, no more shadows of fear, From potato to hero, my dreams are near. With grit in my soul and joy in my stride, I'm breaking the chains, now there's nothing to hide. I'm soaring above, won't you take my hand? The winds of my purpose, like a true life brand. A journey fulfilled, oh I'll take what I can, No matter where I go, there I am.
