Appreciation

April 19, 2013
I was told as a young blood that I couldn't make it I was said that I would never amount to anything Even though the odds are all against me If one opportunity can open I have to take it Most are impoversished, most are neglected Few are feared, and few are respected Rise from the ashes and step into the light For we need to understand that every light that burns with in Is our potential to against any darkness that we are put against I've had people try to break down my aspirations So I read my bible for preperation I'm told that I'll never be good and to most those are harsh words But to me that's just appreciation
