Rise of Realization

I don't want to fall and wonder why it has gone to nothing/
You left me out in the stormy rain, I thought you were bluffing/
Tears streaked down my face like the dirt you made me out to be/ 
As you leave me behind wrecking everything you see/
You know my story but you never fulfilled the promises you made to me/
I was left to seek for untethered help/
Where were you? Not at my feet/
I struggled and cried, broke down for reasons I don't know why/
I lost myself and you probably stood on the sidelines/
I grew up and changed/
I rearranged/
Without you of course because things will never be the same/
I gave up on myself once, wont happen again/
I wont let you control me, this isn't the end/
Ill rise up higher than you can ever imagine/
So I can erase all the bad memories as if it didn't happen/
From the past, to the present, and for my future/
Ill keep fighting, I'll heal my wounds with a suture/
Thank you for your momentary presence/
It was great because I learned a lesson/
This is a story which you failed to open your eyes/
And the one that I will guide/
I will win and stride/
Until I'm filled with pride/
