I couldn't see beyond the tip of my own nose
World too small to rediscover where I don't go
They say you can't give what you don't hold
Tryna find a diamond in the roughage of my soul
Every verse is sentimental in its own right
If I don't write, I can't make sense of what I known
I might've took a turn down the wrong road
I ended up where I was meant to, heaven knows
I met the limits of living alone
I've known cold rivers and worrying tones
Through the downpouring rain and flurrying snow
Just know, you only get better the further you go
I choose to givе it all to God, I'm turning it over
It's only tough battles for capable soldiеrs
I'm eligible but don't meddle with closure
I'm settled if you need me, I'll lend you my shoulder

Second verse one of his greatest

I've come a long way from crying on whoever shoulder was near
I close my eyes and let the moment appear
Glimmer of light, I saw some hope in mirror
I know the only way forward is to cope with the fears
Closing my mouth just to open my ears
I learned the most about myself within these couple of years
My cycle but a circle, it evolved to a sphere
Felt the calm from all direction, saw the northernest star
Shining bright as when I turned my life over to God
The dimension of the spirit ain't as far as I thought
Close enough to grasp my emotions of loss
Don't make me who I am, that's just what I was taught
The shame that I have known is like I'm always at fault
But the act of forgiveness is a definitive thought
The wrath of my cynicism ain't innocent at all
In reflection, I saw that my self-centeredness a flaw
A defect, difference 'tween affect and effect
Gotta find a reason to release stress
He next, to flourish from the place he chose to reject
Sincerely yours, Sage
P.S. We blessed
