Emotional Journey 

Sometimes I hit a high and low

Never knowing which way to go

Gotta keep my mind intact

Before the arrest-in my heart-attacks

Gotta a strange feelin’ I’m gonna make it

Even with pain in my eyes I fake it

Looking at my walk you’d think I’m a soldier

Can’t believe what anybody told ya

My tired head seems to get no rest

My fragile hands try to do their best

Weight of world sittin’ on my neck

Not even a goody can handle that

I got a map to show me the way out

But the words keep changing my route

All the avenues on the corner read tests

Every sign don’t lead to an address

The rain shower might trick my eyes

A few tear drops won’t wash away the lies

Hope these alphas get your attention

To ease the blow when the plot thickens

Need a few palm trees with blue skies attached

Sipping a glass of rainbow and an ocean to match

Ease the pain with the shade from the sun

Close my eyes with visions of - I won
