Uplift YOU first

Uplift YOU first

A Poem by Proverbial_Infant

It took me a long time to understand dimensions
I take life as a project always asking for extensions
More time to learn the ropes
Its funny people use the wrong ways to cope
Me , I'm a long ways away from finding my true self
But one day ill be an author take my survival guide off the shelf
The realest are the ones who've been through the realest
Im all about reality checks call me a realist
All about creating a prettier picture call me an idealist
My mind goes in a bunch of different directions
Cant focus on just one section
There is so much to do and sometimes it feels like you're wasting time on the wrong aspects
But people who know me have the utmost respect
All the negativity and I caught charges for neglect
Because I focus mainly on the optimistics
I used to be in an enviroment full of pessimistics
But i still gained the positive out look and became an opportunistic warrior
Looking for nothing but opportunity through each door I walk through
All these issues and I still managed to make it through
An obstacle was merely that and I took the challenge as a game
And no i didnt do it for the fame
I did it to give our family back our proud name
Paths arent easy to choose
You can win or you can lose
But in my eyes you win some and you learn some
Experience makes you wise not dumb
This is the way to success find the road and jump into the process its a gradual pull
If you make life easy itll only be dull
So jump out of your nest and fly towards a better day
And when you extend your wings look to God and start to pray
Because when you take off you want him to hold you so you can sore
Stay away from the man with horns knocking on your door
Stay away from the evil its very alluring
Especially when your dealing with s**t your vulnerable and you're enduring
Vulnerabilities I've learned lead to negativity and on the upscale security leads to positivity
If you dont stand for something youll fall for anything
So if you stand for you youll shine
Just dont get too cocky and get outta line
Because the line between success and failure is surely fine
One wrong move
And you lose instead of improve
So just remember the gradual steps
Draw your blueprint and youll create a starting point
We are not multiple races we are of one the humans we are supposed to be joint
We have forgotten the true meaning of together
I'd rather be nothing because it lasts forever.
