My Life

I grew up as a sweet boy,
Sorrowless and sweet.
I was always cute,
Cuddly and neat.
But since the day,
My best friend went away...
My life has changed
In a really big way.
I started taking drugs,
And started smoking too.
I met new friends and all,
I even joined a crew.
My mommy got real worried,
And kept her eye on me.
Cause she always wanted me to be the same...
Young, innocent, and sweet.
I go to late night parties,
And run away from home.
I fell sorry for my mom,
Cause she's left all alone.
She's gotta accept me for who i am,
And what I wanna be.
I always ask myself......
What does she really want me to be?
So live each day to the fullest,
And be what you wanna be.
Remember you don't have much time....
So reveal your true identity.
Don't follow in my footsteps,
Or even look up to me.
Cause I am still not the person
My mother wanted me to be.

I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad. The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had.

Yeah life is kind of hard to figure out sometimes.  After things have been a certain way for a while you come back and it feels like you don't know yourself anymore.
