[Lyric] Healing Process Still Developing (Savage Intellect (2))

(‘Truth is the first casualty, and the last wound to heal’)

This year I’ve un-bandaged some old wounds
To see how they were healing
Some been there so long, nearly grafted to my skin
So once I begun peeling
It resulted in ripping the shotty stitching
I had done so many years previous
Leading to them bleeding
And thus knowing I must tend to them receiving proper treating
Re-cleanse and disinfect them
Cause even the dead skin of a wound needs to brеathe
Plus it opens lines of communication
And, lеt them know, I let the bitterness go
And learned to love them
Simply based upon what I’ve learned from
And, I don’t mean to make it sound so easy...trust me
Even the memory of my childhood tears
Left the resulting irony turning...rusty
And because I got so many material things I asked for as a kid
I was considered spoiled, now it more so relates
To the fact that fate seems late reading my expiration date
And, I always said, ‘I’ll work extra hard now
So I’ll have more time and money with my daughter
When I became more successful’
Now, my daughter moved a thousand miles away
My time with her gets debated by lawyers
That I have to work extra hard to pay for
And I can’t think of much that could be more successful...
Alyssa Nikole’s the guiding light for my soul
On the long ride to righteousness
But with the light gone so far away, I fear I may stray
Lured by detours, leading me back to from whence I came
So I must endure, no matter how immense the pain
Cause I got goals, so I must be willing to walk over hot coals
On the pathway to positivity...
So if my sunlight has become moonlight
I’ll travel diligently into the night
Instead of waiting on things to improve themselves
I’ll personally take those steps
Until I breathe my final breath
And even then, I’ll have left a legacy
Of undying, dedication and hard work
And that’s a triumph within itself
(“I have nothing left to give”)
(“Back to my past, then forward to my future”)
(“Look inside of self for god”)
(“Look inside of self for god”)
(“Look inside of self for god”)
(“I’m grateful for the opportunity to make a difference”)
(“21 techniques”)
(“I’m grateful for the opportunity to make a difference”)
(“I’m grateful for the opportunity to make a difference”)
(“21 techniques”)

And although some might appreciate my passionate poetry
How many will wholly interpret properly?
Being it’s the brainchild of my own demons and angels
Which reside within me, and that’s private property
But recently I’ve been made aware
It’s healing to share both your passions AND your pains
So I carved the whole world a skeleton key
And if you’ve gotten this far, I trust you got yours
Which I hope that you’ll use...responsibly…
(‘I have nothing left to give’)
And, I’m aware of some of the great things I already accomplished
And I KNOW there’s more to be achieved
In on the eve of what could be my worst year ever
I never believed
That true success would be effortless
I knew from the start of the challenge
It’s all about the art of balance
And Formless equals X (7 X 3 21)
