the power to stop


the power to stop by jamelbrown

have to look up to the shy need to get right  need  to run away from the pain all ways

dancing in the rain cant let these emotions get the best of me there will be 

times when I have to make my own choices in life I need to make it so I can live 

my dreams need to open up the eyes so I can see the light 

for the fist time in my life I will get out of the darkness and be 

great no matter how much I want to just let go I have

to hang on to my heart cant let these people bring me down 

what hurts me makes me stronger I will not go under 

 let my lungs fill with water if I just let go then I  just have to 

pray and let the pain go away am not getting younger 

am still a young teen who got a lot infront of me so 

am not going to end this with a bullet and lock up in a

jail cell cause people was bullying me.
