winter woes

as the sun fell my demeanor went down the drain as well.

the days were darker and began to last longer and longer
Isolated at home all day in the dark as if i was in a cell
seeing what I had become made me feel like a monster.

slumber
I fell into a pit
And the only way out of it
Seemed to be word
Whether it was spoken or sung , to the words I always hung.
Why do i feel like this I wondered, I am still young.
I should be out having fun.
Not at home locking myself in a room with music on.

live n learn
I began to give the same energy I got
Consequently the things you once thought cared for you begin to scatter
I ended up losing a lot.
In the end it is you all alone , you and only you, nothing else really matters

Ye
You grew up under Donda and no one else ​Hey Mama
For as far back as I can remember your songs always inspired me. ​Champion
There is always a brighter day and there is always another way. ​Good Morning.
You made it possible for a simple kid from Chicago with a dream to make it out. ​Homecoming
You made me realize owning up to one's mistakes are not the easiest but are the only way we
can become a better person. ​Runaway
Your influence reaches way further than a couple 808 beats and Bape, it lives inside all the kids
who listen to Drake , the kids who fell in love with fashion , the kids who believe it all to be
possible.
You made confidence cool.

Sleep
As I find it harder and harder to pick my head up off the pillow
And as my eyes peel open ever so slow
The troubles of yesterday and tomorrow have faded away
The rain has been pushed back for another day
It is not who you are not that holds you back it is who you believe you are not.

focus
no matter how high you go.
someone will be waiting for you to hit a low.
you’ll hit it eventually, I mean we all do, but you can't let this show.
there are people out there who love to see you fall below.

love the ones that love you.

while they still do.

I am sorry through finding myself I had to leave you behind.
I'm sorry I hid the pain I had in my eyes.
I was never the type to ask for advice.
Words cannot make this right
So i live with this for the rest of my life

don't look back.

Roll with the punches and do not let them bring you down.
Better times are going to come around.

Always remember you miss 100% of the shots you do not take.
Make it habit not to wait , or you will end up stuck constantly saying it is too late.
This life is what you make of it there is no such thing as fate.

Live while you still can.

There's a lot of people wishing they could do what you can do man.

Tell your friends and family you love them while they are still here
We never know when they may disappear.

eclipse
As the sun began to shine into the room all my problems quickly went away.
I woke up every morning knowing I would see it again the next day.
This was not the case
The brightness now long gone no matter how hard I had to chase.
now nothing seems as bright.
nothing seems to be able to replace that light.
Maybe it serves me right.
Maybe i was born for the night.

Everything and anything is possible.

I tend to stay inside myself
I don't want you to take over me.

finish
The odds were stacked against me since birth
I carry the weight of my family on my shoulders
I hope the trip you took was in the end worth
I do this for you I always told her.

not the same pain

You live your life 100% carefree
Paying for college is a breeze
Your life , has always been an ease.
This has never been the case for me.
Staying up late nights over 3 trying to become the best me I could be
From putting things back at the store to simply not asking to go anymore

concrete jungle
The summer in chicago is so bittersweet
everywhere I go the sirens beep
whether day or night
I just hope everything turns out alright.
Please god watch over all the people around me
I ask you for their souls to keep.

Flower from Concrete

I wasn't supposed to be here today writing this for you
When i was just 4 years old I cracked my head in half
Running around the first house my immigrant family was able to afford to rent
I was not supposed to be able to speak english fluently as no one in my family did
I was not supposed to be able to going off to college as no one in my house had gotten past a
elementary school degree.
But I am here
And I will take advantage of it as best I can.
