Where to Begin



Once again got lost in the moment
Mind Racing, Facing the Darkness Within
Where to Begin
Cant shake this feeling
So Hard to Trust
My Guts Going Nuts

NoOne to turn to
No Place is Safe
No Where to Hide
From whats inside

Faith has been shaken Torn at the seams

Where to begin, facing these demons within
I Wont give In , Even though  Im bitter,im not a quiter

Gotta fihure this out
Gotta get thru these doubts

trying to smile , as im dying inside
im fighting for my Life

For the freedom, for the Peace my soul needs
where to begin my light was so dimm

Treading Water so i dont drown
In a sea of despair, sometimes i dont care
destfuctive patterns so nothing even matters

Yet i know its a state of mind
so i seek and i strive
to change my mind
change whats inside

My light is my Own
So Bright So Ive Grown

Where to begin
Yeah, ive never fit in
so i now know
my soul lights the way

oh the Joy that it Brings
as my spirit sings
uplifted, enlightened, a force, driven

Power i never knew existed
deep within was hidden

What is me , is unraveling
strength is now wisdom
peace in my kingdom

as i grow in each moment
accountable and own it

i move foward, remembering who i choose to be
is now reflected in my actions, thoughts, and how i see

so WHere to Begin, is Always within , within me
