Lyrics
It took so long to see how wrong I was
Realizing the extent of my mistakes took a considerable amount of time.
I felt no peace in the world around me
I did not find inner peace in the world that surrounded me.
In my head, I was the victim and this was my shelter
In my thoughts, I saw myself as a victim, finding comfort in this perspective.
Stuck in a place of self-defeat
Trapped in a state of self-destructive behavior.
I tried so hard to understand
I made efforts to comprehend my situation.
But I was blinded again and again
Despite my attempts, I was repeatedly blinded to the truth.
My mindset was so negative
My mindset was overwhelmingly negative.
Until I learned that I had what it takes to change it up
Eventually, I discovered the ability within myself to bring about change.
I stepped into a better, brand new state of mind
I entered into a more positive and improved state of mind.
Even though it took time, patience set me free
Although it required time, patience became the key to my liberation.
It didn't make any sense for me to suffocate all of my hopes and dreams
It was illogical to suppress my aspirations and dreams.
To prove a point that in end, that in end will mean nothing
Trying to prove a point in the end would be meaningless.
I had to prove it to myself that I was better than how I felt
I needed to demonstrate to myself that I was better than my emotions suggested.
Feeling down was a waste of my time, so I turned it around
Feeling down was a waste of time, so I decided to change my perspective.
And now I'm standing tall in the face of all the things that make me feel small
Now, I confidently face challenges that used to make me feel insignificant.
Enough is enough
A realization that a limit has been reached, and change is necessary.
2017 almost got there, 2018 won't be the same
Anticipating a different outcome in 2018 compared to the challenges faced in 2017.
