my ride

i just realized
a little mesmorized
just this minute
what's goin' on with me
and
i can't spin-it

my Ego is gone
so long
bye gone
lost my self-pride
no place ta' hide
no way ta'slide
can't even glide

gotta' pass thru
gotta' do what ya' do

gotta' face the truth
call Dr. Ruth
Superman
can't find his phone booth

who am i?
i am who?
whataya' do?
oh, man,
that's a so true !

where did i go?
where have i been?
i don't know.
is that a sin

in bewteen yesterday
& today
what happened ta' time'?
when did it go away?

when i look in the mirror
what do i see?
is that me?
or is it just him?
feelin' thin
but then again
i remember
when

those in the past
i cast aside
those that didn't last
they just let me hide
let me take the ride
the roller coaster
up, down, all around
still
i couldn't be found
round & round

'till here i am,damn,

i can't spin-it
i can't win it
but i guess
it was my ride

I have felt this so deeply this morning, I can relate so well to these lines:

when i look in the mirror
what do i see?
is that me?

Excellently expressed,
