Commitment to Self

Sometimes I'm lost
So far off track I don't know who to trust

I look at myself
Unrecognizable I reach out for help
And that's ok
Weakness doesn't have to produce shame

The possibilities of progression exist as long as you maintain a pulse
The ability to learn a lesson persists as long as your mind can function
Making a commitment to self for the benefit of the ones I love
Don't wanna slip into comfortable negligence
Won't be a product of trauma
Won't submit to my problems
I will face myself and be a contender
When it comеs to my life I won't be a bystander

I'm not gonna stop bеlieving that I have exactly what it takes
To take this life in stride and do more than simply survive
I deserve more than what I've been allotted
I deserve a dignified existence

I'm not gonna stop believing that I can break this routine

Pain perpetuates pain I'm determined to break the chain
I'm demanding more from myself than to be a slave to my emotional shifts
