the future in my eyes

why do i have to break just to look for some help why must i lose who i am to reflect what i wanna see this is containment, restraint holding close what i could do i linger on a moment as i slowly fade away froze once before at the past now i'm steady, i'm steadfast slipping through the hands running the day to day i refuse to submit i can no longer delay had to push against pressure applied from those in control but the futures within grasp i can see it in my eyes knew i was finally ready when my heart beat in sync cracks appeared all on my skin to remind me of who i am made it over the terrain of the haunting memories cant slow down now, wont give in with it breathing just behind rocks scrape you at the bottom this is something i know well even if it breaks your frame have to stand up all the same learn to dust whats misplaced remember to erase wipe it clean and move on a choice only you can make slipping through the hands running the day to day i refuse to submit i can no longer delay had to push against pressure applied from those in control but the futures within grasp i can see it in my eyes
