“Doing the Groundwork”

Been walking on my path for years

Now stuck at a stand still

Rotating in circles while surrounded

By doubts, anxiety, pride, and fears

Thought the mountain before this was the highest I had to climb

Now this one is even bigger so I’m trying to find

Any solution possible to not keep me behind

Can’t use the tools I used before

That’s the reason I’m stuck in this 360 still standing here

So instead of looking to the sky

At hopes, dreams, and wishes

I search deep within

Searching for light

Hunting for love

Rebuilding the strength within

Trusting I can find my way again

Head down, full weight on my pivot

Arms steady, ready for the take off

Tunnel vision, straight ahead

No obstacles, no ropes pulling my back

Can make me go against the grain

I still focus on sunshine even when there’s rain

Been held back from my future too long

Time for a full attack

Remembering to rest to reset get back on track

Cuz this time around things are different

Owe it to myself to make a difference

Come from humbled beginnings

So I now I work hard and smart until I reach my ending

Cuz no friend nor foe

Can drag me back to where I was before

Fighting harder than ever

To keep my foundation stronger than how it was long ago
