Realization

Stop

Why

Because you have yet to realize

That my potential inside

Isn’t to write

In me is the power to fight

But without a doubt

Inside and out

I forced a change to go around

… And now I don’t give a damn

About how others feel about my plan

Because to me

Change isn’t necessary

But a choice for thee

And now I fight

And I change my mind

To fight with my words

And not with my life

… Now stop again

I keep losing you man

Or are you surprised by my intuition

On subjects deep and profound

Or that I’ve come to terms with my inner self

… Now I see

You’re staring blankly

For now you know my simple truth

That before you can accept me as me

You have to accept yourself first

Now stand, face the truth

Realize what you must do
