Embrace Your Madness

Embrace your madness
What makes you unique
People always try and put you in a box
But that’s a box they can keep.

Embrace your madness
What makes you you
You an individual alive
That’s madness too.

If you ain’t a little mad
Are you even alive?
Embrace what you have
Get in touch with what’s inside.

People want to tell you what you are
You show them what you ain’t
Let em run and talk
Let em picture paint.

You get in touch with you
The feelings you have
Can’t always feel good
We all have days of bad.

It’s alright to feel what you feel
You can’t always be up
Feelings hurt can always heal
You ain’t always got to be tough.

Embrace your journey
And what you’ve been through
Embrace the now
Embrace the real you.

It’s a journey of discovery
Hopefully you find someone to journey on the road
Embrace the journey
Embrace your soul.

Embrace your madness
What makes you unique
And don’t let no one put you in no box
Until your breathing stops and it’s six feet deep.

Embrace your madness
What makes you you
You an individual alive
That’s madness too.

Give That Love To You

I’m feeling love for me
That’s what’s coming through
I got love for me
Have you got love for you?
 
I look back on my journey
And all I’ve come through
And love for me
Is all I can come to.
 
I’m resilient
If nothing else
Have adapted many times
And there’s a strength in self.
 
I’m giving love to me
That’s been long overdue
I got love for me
Have you got love for you?
 
My heart was waiting on love
While it seems love had started hating on me
So I’m giving love to myself
That didn’t come for me.
 
The love I deserve
The love you deserve too
Don’t be waiting on others
When they ain’t waiting on you.
 
We learn from our defeats
We rise each time we fall
We learn from our mistakes 
And new breaks call.
 
Understand we deserve better
And better is what we’ll get
If they feel they can treat you bad
Then there’s better treatment to get.
 
Put your heart out?
Someone crush it for their pleasure?
Hell no baby!
We deserve much better.
 
But if we deserve better yet
We got to change our mindset
For the disrespect we get
Is a result of the disrespect we let. 

I’m giving love to myself
You giving love to you?
Don’t be waiting on someone else
To give you the love you are due.
 
You give that love to yourself
And find someone who thinks more of you
And eventually the love you give yourself
Someone will give you more of too.
 
We ain’t in no panic
We ain’t in no rush
And if they don’t give
Well, then we won’t push.
 
You give that love to yourself
Be thankful for what you got
For there are folks out there
Remaining happy without a lot.
 
Give that love to yourself
And share it with each other
Can’t give it to the one you love
Give it to your sisters and your brothers.
 
You give that love to yourself
Knowing better is what you’re due
And the love that you give
Will soon come back to you.
 
I got love for me
Have you got love for you?
I’m giving love to me
You give that love to you.

Take A Breath

I go through life
Hurtling at great speeds
I go through life
And life goes through me.
  
I don’t know, 
Where each experience leads
But when it’s getting too much
I just remind myself, to breathe.
  
Most often things don’t go
The way we want them to
But in that lies the making of the soul
The making of you.
  
In how you deal with your defeats
How you react when you’re deflated
For life ain’t always sweet
It’ll cheat you, beat you and frustrate you.
  
But in that remember those who made ya
And remember you’re a child
And it’s alright to lose your way kid
It’s alright to go a little wild.
  
In fact it’s often those who lose their way
Know the right road when they take it
For they’ve walked paths that have gone astray
And know risk,loss,and what real heartbreak is.
  
Some people keep themselves in check
Always play it safe
Till they get close to death
And see a lot of waste.
  
So when you’re feeling quite upset
And you’re getting sick of your mistakes
Why don’t you go out and take a breath
Try feel a little thanks for what’s in place.
  
Take a look at those who are near you
Who care for you now
And try let loose a little fear from you
BELIEVE! It will all work out somehow.
  
Things don’t happen for a reason
But you must find your reason in the happening
It’s alright to take some timeout, soul search,   
breathe in 
Exhale, for eventually we must get back to acting.
  
This life is where it’s at
Being alive is all there is
So don’t put too much pressure on yourself
There’s enough of that, take a breath, exhale, 
live.
  
Make mistakes
Take a break
Take a breath
Exhale…live.
  
Feel the weight
Take a break
Take a breath
Exhale…live.
  
Feel upset
Take a break
Take a breath
Exhale…live.
  
Accept your place
Feel some thanks
Take a breath
Exhale…live.
  
Take your time
Calm your mind
Take a breath 
Exhale…live.
  
Let go 
What you can’t control
Take a breath
Exhale…live.
  
Meet what’s inside
When you need to, cry
Take a breath
Exhale…live.
  
And when your self has been met
Take a step
Take a breath 
Exhale
Live!
