Talking To Myself

I heard your cries for strength
Echoing in a space between the sleep you never wanted
And dreams always coming

Had to calm down,
say the words out loud :
What if I fail in my focus?
What if all this is for nothing?

I made you say it so it wouldn't be just a thought
It can carry weight now
Although you act in an opposite manner
There's a reality under the surface of those questions

So what you gonna do? Ali, Goku, Bruce Lee all share something in common with you
Running through your veins, the blood you share
Energy, relentless dedication to defeating what's in your way
But
what you gonna do if that weight holds you?

I see your mind's a mess
Cause you have to make plans and
Say so much by biting your tongue
Holding back
That isn't you and you know it
Your heart is so fat
Your hear is so fat

You talk to me and I listen to you
We know where we stand
22 and few rules
Wherever we go
He only wants to end up coming home to you

What are you going to do if?
What am I going to do if?

Later Days, Longer Nights
