More than you see


                                    

                                        "More Than You See"

                                       I'm more than the eye meets

                       I care more than about what shoes are on my feet

                             I don't need drugs or alcohol to excite me 

                              To be honest I want to be a representation 

                              That there's still good in this generation

                       I run away from my problems like a track meet

                         I say more and I'm way more than an athlete

                      Very few people in this world even know me

                               Not even the fact that I love poetry

                             At times I admit I can be very distant

                       No point of me to fit in when I'm already different

                     I stay up beat because at the end of life there's a light 

                                 A light so bright comes just like a flash

                              If you ever want to know about my just ask
