Road To Your Own Riches.


Everyone is blind

because at night you don't see anything or anybody by your side

You struggle on your own

therefore you need to catch your pace and know your flow

If you don't, you're likely to fall behind

then when you pick up ypurself, your spot you left off will be hard to find

Just because your mind is focus on something else

but in life you have to focus on yourself, not really anybody else

Always being isolated isn't much fun

but being isolated from those crews would keep you away from being in front of a gun.

This a road full of riches, just waiting on you to grab what's your

only way to find that out is to open the unopen doors.

In my life going forward i notice nobody wants to stick with you through your struggles 

but they'll stick with you as you succeed, just to stick around as a hustle

Gotta shield them away like a bubble

Just ignore, forcus to succeed, day by day, you'll become humble.

This is a long dumpy road of riches

Just stay in your right

Not your wrongs

Because then people would call you snitches

Maybe getting sitched

But just stick on your own road of your own way, of having your riches!

<p>Reading my own writing sometimes makes me think how those strong words can just type itself. Only once you spill all your emotions out onto something, that you want people to know about.</p>
