This was my path – The path I chose – The Path I walked

Where did it take me?

Are you sure that you want to know?

Because I’ve been on both sides of it all

I’ve seen the strongest of men fall,

the weakest of men rise

Mothers full of joy and mothers with tears in their eyes

My darkest days, have been the reason why. mother had tears in their eyes

 

That was my path – The path I chose – The path I walked

The path where if it came down to it, many would freeze

because I walked with a knife, looking to stick it in somebody’s arteries

and remove them from this earth

a little too dark I know

so I’ll let you breathe and regain your composure

a life I weren’t used to, I gained too much exposure

 

That was my path – The path I chose – The path that was forced

I was just another innocent kid that got lost in the system

And the saddest part is

They only saw me as a file, they saw me as  a case

They never once looked me in the face

They moved me from home to home till I, lost my smile, I lost my place

As a young kid, I put all my trust and hope in the social

Abd they destroyed my faith

So what did I do? how did I survive?

 

 

That path I chose is what keeps many alive
