Find Your Way

I can paint this picture with a million strokes Try to explain in a million words Truly one in a million Can't articulate all that you deserve But you don't see yourself with the same lens Understand that beauty attract fake friends But know this to no end That if you stick to your goals real ones will naturally fall in line With every effort you're applying Keep your head up to the sky And let your faith shine Many men plotting on you trying to take advantage Showering with compliments offering the planet Promising a future but once you start to plan it He got what he wanted from you then he left you stranded Now you feel embarrassed Now you feel abandoned Searching for some vices that will help you manage But no I'll give comfort to cope And give words of hope to you like You can find your way Don't let the world bring you down It'll be ok Fight for a brighter day They cannot break you now Continue to pray In this life of imperfections Can we cope with our digressions Still learn from these lessons And apply it to be the best man Lately I've been stressing Thinking of your situation Because as soon as he left you That's when you found out that you were carrying A few weeks pregnant Sitting along contemplating Is this something that you really could invest in Should the baby go or should it stay in Would you regret the decision Or do you regret the consequence you couldn't evade when You started drifting from your foundation Education Spiritual routine But you got caught up in the images on magazines Scrolling through the Gram affecting your self esteem That's when you lost 'hold of your dreams Dressing scantily Flirtation randomly Spiting on the name of your family When you disregard the wisdom placed under your feet Only led to your calamity I tried to tell you life would be better in you stand with me But instead you lay with others popping Plan B's I tried every method still can't get into your head Say you're not going to let a man control how you live Well that's cool Well go ahead and play the fool Different nights hitting clubs chasing after dudes Don't forget your son is at home with your momma I could be the one to alleviate all the drama But you don't want to listen Want to make your own decisions Say she do it on her own Man she's so independent But I get it we teach so much stupidity Then say it's for the culture Our self-inflicted wounds is only entertainment for the vultures It's like the blind leading the blind Leaving our kids stranded with no guidance Results show in time It's like a trap We promote young sex The use and sell of drugs Keeping ourselves underneath the poverty line But you don't get it so I'm gone Found a love of my own Raising kids in a happy home While you're all alone You can find your way Don't let the world bring you down It'll be ok Fight for a brighter day They cannot break you now Continue to pray You can find your way Don't let the world bring you down It'll be ok Fight for a brighter day They cannot break you now Continue to pray When I felt I was alone I remember whose been on this journey with me As the sky changes day and night I keep in mind what's in sight Through the years you remember heartache and pain but you also remember growth Lessons learned lessons taken lessons continue I am who I am because I accepted what's in me I don't live by fear I live by faith and I take every word of the wise to get through everyday I am strong I am bold And I am a believer I can swim through the deepest water I can float over the tallest cloud I can do anything I put my mind to I won't let rejection or derogatory remarks stop me from where I am heading I've been through a lot and I know I will go through a lot more I will continue to hold your right hand as I explore I found what's new hope to my missing puzzle and I am grateful for that Nothing physical can come between me spiritually because I'm a believer That's what keeps my faith alive
