The Future Pt. 3

“By Myself”

I Think the time has finally come
To be by myself and start having fun
I've spent my whole life looking for that special girl
The whole idea, became my whole world
But after all the books and the lessons
I finally have a confession
This is hard to say and to do, but I have no other choice
Although I cry as I write this, the decision must be voiced
I can no longer deal with it, I have a new quest
To stay by myself, I think that would be best
Virginia is for lovers but I'm sad to report
That I think I've missed the mark I guess I've come up short
I've spent my whole life trying to fit in,
Failing to realize the beauty within
I'm no longer in the game, because I'm far beyond my time
But that's where I'll stay, because there I'm just fine.
I can't compete with those who don't play the game fair
But now it doesn't matter, because I really don't care
No more suttle adjustments, no more major changes
No more being someone else, as if I were nameless
No more empty pockets with nothing to show
Not even a love that's starting to grow
My world just grew cold
My life started to fold
It was all getting old
I had to break my mold
So now here I stand
As a completely changed man
Knowing all that I am
My head no longer in my hands
So I'll prepare to stay single, no longer for a wife
Until God gives me reason to turn around my life
Because for him and him only I'm willing to change
Because I know he'll help me continue to stand the rain.
