Some day’s impulse takes a hold of you Spontaneous actions make you act a fool The movement helps to stimulate my mind The weeks defeated me, I need my own time Time to forget Time to prepare Time to live out my day Time for me to get on out, I’m living life this way While I enjoy this feel The world stands by I sense that time is watching as the hour’s drift aryl Right now, I need that something take me away I should face up to this but I’m feeling ashamed But I gotta be brave Gotta try and save face Coz’ at the end of the day, when you self-reflect, you learn! What happened? How did I get here? Did guilt make me forget or is remorse holding my fears? Should I double down? Feel I should apologies to my health Too many lies I’ve said to myself I’m not surprised the feelings I’ve felt today… Right now, I need that something take me away I should face up to this but I’m feeling ashamed But I gotta be brave Gotta try and save face Coz’ at the end of the day, when you self-reflect, you learn! I’m not defeated but right now feel a way I’m gon face up to this but I’m feeling ashamed Know I gotta be brave Gotta try and save face Coz’ at the end of the day, when you self-reflect, you learn!

Mr Correct, Mr Always Right, Mr No Regret, Mr Out of Sight, Wont you help with the option to work on it Instead of insisting is something that I missed We really don’t need this, who would want it? I’m stuck with that feelin, you’re not honest And I’m really good with leaving you behind Coz I really aint got the time This gets old, moving on, something new Something else that my mind wants to do And your grown, you should know, thought you new What is it you expect me to do for you And still no admission No real thought on what you been missing You talk about what I did, talk about what I said Your holier than thou, so innocent I really don’t need this, who would want it? I’m stuck with that feelin, you’re not honest And I’m really good with leaving you behind Coz I really aint got the time This gets old, moving on, something new Something else that my mind wants to do And your grown, you should know, thought you new What is it you expect me to do for you

There might be danger up ahead Moving forward make sure that your watching your step Change direction which way to go right, then left Navigate with your compass I’m sure it won’t be long now Strangers come and go aint no thing Hope we’ve learnt from all that we’ve seen I’m not running I’m escaping Freedoms mine I don’t play no games So far the plan is to start again Done with burdens and hardships and suffering So now we’re on our way And we won’t stop and stay for nobody The journey might feel strange But we’ve got so much fuel so keep going Exploring more new ways to love There’s so much hate that’s dangerous When we land Remember how we travelled here Share around, old stories how we all can win Tales to help me confront my fears Take me back to my younger years Learned the lessons that brought me here I’m so thankful my mind is clear So far the plan is to start again Done with burdens and hardships and suffering So now we’re on our way And we won’t stop and stay for nobody The journey might feel strange But we’ve got so much fuel so keep going Exploring more new ways to love There’s so much hate that’s dangerous

You know I’m way past it all When I scream bet you won’t hear the sound of my call Frustration fills me up, ‘coz injustice never stops ‘Coz love was never your goal… ‘Coz you got greedy sitting on greedy sitting real tall So here I go (fly) Got to run Catch the sun I got the numbers for who’s boarding my ship, keeping it small So here I go (fly) Got to run Catch the sun I got the numbers for who’s boarding my ship, keeping it small So now we’re on our way home When we reach, you won’t get to talk to us by phone Vote for change but stay the same Hypocrites all through the game ‘Coz love was never your goal… ‘Coz you got greedy sitting on greedy tripping on gold So here I go Got to run Catch the sun I got the numbers for who’s boarding my ship, keeping it small So here I go Got to run ‘Coz I’m done I got the numbers for who’s boarding my ship, keeping it small

to run away would make it easy for you responsibilities who you accountable to now how would you answer back there can be a blame in shaming without no reflecting once again now how would you answer back the world dont owe nothing so lets step forward as a mass For when you crumble, when you fall, when your counting your loss, Who put your back up against the wall, Don't stall, say it, Just say yeah I did it Aint no shame to admit it I got flaws now I see it, Each one has a reason I'm grateful for the hindsight, I know more, I'll do it better than before I'll get my back off against the wall, I won't stall, do it,\because yeah I did it, Aint no shame to admit it but most of all, I need to learn why to evolve. Its not crazy to think that the problem could be you, Chose to ignore it them you'll be deniing yourself the truth, take a look, You think you can answer that, Question why your always facing these kinds of problems, once again, You think you can answer back just be honest or you'll circle round, do it again

about

It is said, study, work hard and life shall reward.
Be good unto others and life will be kind to you.
The question is, can you break free from the external constraints of control or do you negotiate your release.
Should one endure the seemingly eternal struggle, wielding equality as a spearhead of revolution ? Or do you count your loses and move on to a new world where the lessons of the past are acknowledged ?
A fresh start without the weight of having to shield your liberty.
A place where all past wrongs can be made right and the tentacles of evil can not reach.
A world where legacy can be held in esteem.
