Can you do it?

 Can you be happy?

Can you enjoy yourself by yourself?

Can you laugh out loud for no rhyme or reason?

Can you dance like you don't care if someone stares?

Can you admit when your wrong sometimes?

Can you exercise the same patience with others as you want them to do with you?

Can you not rush to judgement before you have weighed all the facts?

Can you let it go and not allow it to consume you?

Can you not rationalize for once?

Can you act civilized?

Can you think?

Can you express yourself?

Can you use your imagination? 

Can you love?

Can you show it?

Can you be free?

Can you not loose it?

Can you do it?

This is war

You did not sign up for this.

It is not fair.

It entered your life without warning.

Theirs no way you could have ever anticipated it.

Theirs no way you could  have been prepared.

Shots fired.

Projectiles are coming at you from all directions.

This is war!

Your under attack.

There is no refuge from the onslaught from this invisible juggernaut.

You are your only ally.

You are your only protection.

You are your ammunition.

You are your weapon.

The ops won't give you a second to catch your breath let alone breathe.

Your deep in the trenches and the only way out is to fight and believe.

Amour up.

Focus.

Find your center.

Hone your disceplene.

Your at war with deamons.

They don't understand the ways of peace.

They only exist to bring carnage.

They won't let up.

They will not yield.

They will not cease.

You have to force them into submission.

You have to stand firm on your faith.

You have to embody your beliefs.

This war.

It's cold.

It's bitter.

It's not fair.

Your only chance for survival is to tap in and awaken God.

Be the prayer.

This is war soldier.

DISMISSED!

Hair Trigger.

 Button. Button whoes got the button?

Where's the button?

I don't even know you and I can see your button from here.

You make it so easy.

You make it so accessible.

You become triggered real quick.

I see it.

There it is.

Touch.

Touch.

Touch

You don't like that do you?

You let your emotions rule you.

Take it down a notch.

Dial it back.

Ask yourself this question.

Who wins?

Sure you might get the last word in.

You may even beat them senseless.

Who wins though?

Who was in control?

Who was pulling the strings?

Are you a player or a play thing?

Are they gigantic or are you bigger?

Why was it so easy for them to trip your trigger?

In due time

 What's the rush?

Who are you trying to impress?

Who are you trying beat?

Dreams don't have  an expiration  date.

As long as your making progress then your doing just fine.

Accept construction criticism.

Pay unproductive conversations no mind.

Do what you need to do to get through.

Your not punching a clock.

Your on your own time.

Just action

 I see what's going on.

I'm not blind.

I can't mute it.

I know something must be done.

I'm not stupid.

I can't take the time to react to every teeny tiny thing that catches my radar.

It's not that I'm afraid.

It's not that I just don't care.

I just know the only way I can help out is to study, train, and prepare.

I may not be able to change the world but I can change mine.

I can change me.

What's going on right now will happen regardless.

What is just is.

That which is shall be.

I can't change the world but I can change me.

Thanks for that

As much I hate you right now I want say thank you. 

Thank you for ripping off the blinders.

Thank you for destroying the ceiling and obliterating invisible lines.

Thank for making the unseen clearly visible.

Thanks for the discomfort.

Thanks for the civil unrest.

Thanks for making me appreciate all that I took for granted before you came along.

Thank you for giving me the much needed time to figure things out.

Thank you for that suffering.

Thank you for that pain.

Thank you for stripping me down to my bare bones and forcing me to see situations for what they really are.

Thank you for giving me the courage to let them go.

Thanks for revieling all my hidden foes.

Thanks for giving me the strength to keep fighting.

Thanks for awakening my spirit.

Thank you for forcing me to deal with me.

Thanks for helping me find accountability.

Thanks for showing me who I truly am.

Thanks for making it clear to me what I need to do.

I hate how you distruped my life.

I hate the way you decieved me.

I hate the way you ruined all my plans.

I hate you for all that you've taken away from me.

I hate you so much.

As much as I hate you thank you for making me better.

After surving all this hell that you put me through I now know exactly what I have to do.

I'm  now finally secure in the knowledge that I'll find a way to make it through.

Thanks for that but.........

F****YOU!

Farewell 2020

Perfect timing

 Your looking for something you can't see.

Your waiting for something that will never exist.

The timing will never be spot on.

The circumstances will never be how you invision it.

Even if you knew what it looked like you wouldn't be able to find it.

Your going to be waiting on an opportunity that's never going to come because your afraid to to take the first step.

Your afraid of looking foolish.

Your afraid  of sacrificing or possibly going without.

You are being strangled by your own doubt.

Your trying to wait for the line to get smaller.

Your progress is being stunted by your own doubt.

Your looking for a short path.

You worried about details that aren't even a factor yet.

Your plans will never fall in place if you don't take that first step.

Your going to grow feeble and old waiting on perfect.

Narratively speaking

We are in control. 

Our situation is not hopeless.

We have a say so.

We have the power contrary to all unpopular belief.

We have and are advancing at an expedient pace.

We will not be silenced nor muzzled until we win this race.

We are now among the elite that are responsible for turning the wheels to this machine were all inside of.

We set the bar.

We overcome all obstacles set in our path.

We push forward through our pain

We shatter our limits and break through barriers too.

We continuously find the strength to power though.

We contiuisly make a mockery of all that doubt us and tell us what we can not do.

No matter how much they try to tarnish our image or sully our names.... We still find a way to stand stand tall.

We remain bold and defiant.

We don't back down.

We triumph in the face of adversity.

We control the horizontal.

We control the vertical.

We "are" the air waves.

They are just glorified distortion.

White noise.

Feedback.

It might be their station but it's our show.

We are not the images they try to sell the people on.

We transced the box they try to place us in.

Adjust your set.

Is the image clear now?

Can you see our win?

Tis the season?

Seasons greetings to one and all.

Happy holidays.

Seasons greetings I say to yours.

Seasons greetings I extend to thee.

I hope you enjoyed yourself and enjoyed  spending time with your loved one's and those whom you consider family.

I hope you ate  your fill.

I hope you quenched your thirst.

I hope you took alot of photos.

I hope you created fond new memories.

I hope you played games.

I hope you gave and recieved gifts.

I hope you celebrated this season in all your traditional ways that you usually do.

I hope you received and sent love during those days too.

Now that the festivities are over I have some questions to ask.

Will you keep on showing love or did you just reserve it for these days?

Will you keep checking up on loved ones and keep making time for your family?

Will you continue to help all those in need and keep showing compassion towards your fellow man?

Will you keep doing and being the best you possibly can?

Was the joy you felt truly authentic or was merely a seasonal facade?

I'm not trying to harsh your buzz or derail your train.

All I want to know is if your happiness real or is fleeting just like this season?

Shine

Some people are so rich all they have is money.

Some people are so attractive looking their actually ugly.

Some couples are so in love that all they have each other.

Some people are so brilliant their actually dumb.

Some people are so brave that their actually afraid.

Some people laugh so hard that they actually weep.

Some people are so woke that their actually asleep.

Life can be subtle or be blunt.

We must look deeper to discover what we truly want.

True happiness doesn't come from the images you think see.

True riches don't come the wealth you believe you desire.

True love isn't the infatuation that your lusting after.

Knowing who you are and lovingy loving is all that truly matters.

After you love yourself unconditionally everything else will flow like water and shimmer like gold.

If you want true wealth then look deep inside your soul.

Then when you find yourself you'll have riches beyond belief and wealth untold.
