I guess everything comes full circle,
It has to eventually.
Been waging the wrong wars,
I am my own enemy.
Get the funeral ready,
Aim your guns steadily,
This is my end,
This is the death of an enemy.
Life is short,
Art is long,
Maybe I can take a second to immortalize my lies,
For my whole life I have lived between these lines.
My poetry can't save me,
I need to realize that to be reborn,
Death must come first.
Please don't misunderstand me,
This isn't my last verse.
You don't see the things I am fighting for,
I'm almost done with LOVE & WAR.
Poetry comes naturally to me,
And I hope I can always do this,
Doubt comes to kill me,
But art will always get me through it.
Okay,
That hurts so let's change.
I remember the way my doubt said that love was not for me,
I caught feelings for her but I guess I don't what that feels like.
I see the best in people,
But I see the worst in me.
I guess I am a mad man,
Who has never quite been accepted.
My heart died long ago,
Please be its resurrection.
Until death do us part,
I was too scared to even start,
But now I am too afraid to let go,
I may never get this close again,
Or maybe I am not meant to.
Maybe I'm going to find someone again,
Someone who takes me from my darkness,
And tells me I have meaning.
We hit love now its time to address hate,
Honestly I am not okay.
I remember hating so many people,
Without realizing I was the thing I hated most.
I want to scream WAKE UP,
Yet I live in comatose.
I'm sleeping in a hell that I have made,
Or maybe I just provided the bricks,
Construction takes commitment,
Which is probably why I won't fix up the parts of me that I'm not proud of.
Hindsight is 20-20,
So now I see that I made myself never good enough.
It was less their words,
And more mine.
I am a nuclear bomb waiting to go off,
Call me a landmine.
Okay this is the part where the enemy decides to leave my home,
All I want is to be left alone,
No please regard that last statement.
I say things that I don't mean,
You know I hate it.
I want to let you in,
But I just can't say it.
You are my antidote,
I brought that back again.
Maybe I was wrong,
This is not an end.
My enemy may always be here,
But that's not a reason to fear.
We all have doubt,
But I'm locking mine out.
And if I die trying to be better,
Don't forget me.
This is a new life for me,
But the death of an enemy.
