I Will Be Alright
19 September, 2003
Author: Shan
I'm gunna entertain you with the thoughts of my brain
I'm gunna complain about the strain, the pain and the way I go insane
I'm gunna explain and explode all I contain in and hold
Breaking through the mold, I'm finally gunna be bold
Finally gunna unfold my life and take behold of it
It's time I enrolled and took control of it and make things right
It's been a fight for all time, but in this rhyme you're gunna see me climb
Sublime and come back, no time to fall behind
It's about time I attack, put myself back on track
Finally realize I can't go back to fill in the crack
So I'll take all life has stacked for me and look at that
Spent so much time never being intact-- I felt trapped
Could never adapt anything but rap to me
I've been held back with strings, only hearing the clings of chains
As they hold back my brain, I go insane
It's time to tame the flame and try again
The day may fall but I'll never give in
I'll brawl through any wall in my way
Nothing you could ever say will make me go back to being that way
You're seeing ME finally, my thoughts and world broke free violently
No more sitting there silently, no more of my life passing by me
I'll be foreverly holding onto the good times
Letting go of the crimes and the lies
No more written notes threatning the last goodbye
No more nights of not sleeping until I cry, becuase I'll get by
No more withdrawals of this life I'm in
Giving it my all to fight for what's within
Stand tall and begin living with what I'm given
Never gunna be driven back to the past to loose sight of myself in this fight
And now that I know what I have, I have no need to be like that
No thoughts as mean as that to go back to being that dark and black
It's startin to seem a fact that things will stay intact
I'll be able to adapt, and never fall back into that trap
I'll be alright, because I finally learned to fight
I know that if I fight and go with what this life has to throw
I'll be alright cuz I know that if I try and continue to fight
And for all I've been through, I'm proud to say
I believe in myself, and I will be alright
