If only I was prepared
To face the world
If only I was made to stand
My own man and them just lead
But twas all school and now I've schooled
Yet with my school I'm almost not able to survive the world
Cause I was prepared dependent
And made not to my own man stand
Gosh! Now I face it all and I'm overwhelmed
Value diminishing and I am left with almost nothing
Almost not feeling like it
I tried for me to stand but twas my world against the standing forces that birthed
My only wrong was daring to squarely face the world
Not just with their lens and mine but as it should be.
Now, I guess been young is just too much a charred.
Will anything I stand for ever make sense?
When until will value be placed on not just what's valuable but what's right at a time?
As if to say, twill all make sense when it's time for it.
My appeal is but to trust You with the process, Hallelujah.
