My Journey

Life is a journey
You should live with no regrets
Life is a journey
Fear is a mindset

Don't be afraid to take risks.
Throughout life people will doubt you,
Life will go on no matter who is around you.
One decision can change your journey
Since this is so, you must choose wisely
Money, friends, and fame will come but these things are timely.

My journey is almost over
I must say that I'm proud
A wife, nice house
Fame has come, but it was not free
Now every time I go outside-even the ravens flee

See I have done something terrible
If I told you, you would hate me
The thing you should understand is on it's way is my new baby.
I hope this child can right my wrongs.
He and my wife shall live joyous and long

I had to end him
It was a must
His life threatened my own due to greed and lust.
Sometimes I don't understand my own feelings
I should've surrounded myself with better people;
In the inside of my heart there's a frolicking wicked fire
He shouldn't have stabbed me in the back-
He was supposed to be my best friend:
Now his body sleeps with the worms
And his bed has no one to tend.

My journey is almost over
And I know taking a life isn't manly,
I just want the world to know
I did what I could for my family.

Throughout my life, I've been through a lot of painful things which have made me stronger. I have lived in many towns, many houses, and I just wanted to share parts of my story with people.
