What it takes to be me

Itching for additional everything 

Girl wana get married 

I ain’t ready for no ring

I only want more

came from sleeping on the floor

You could never understand 

What it takes to be me

To be hurt and still work

Them kids gotta eat

Clothes full of dirt

Got no washing machine

God please save me 

Thoughts of doing evil things just to make ends meet

I have Lint in my jeans 

What a hell of life

But how could I cry

It’s kids with no legs 

Kids that are blind 

Grandmamas crying

Cause the grand children dying 

Men out here broke 

Holding up signs 

I refuse to go beg 

I’d rather go take 

Trying to be a good person I’m going insane 

I’m still itching 

For additional everything 

Girl wana get married

can’t afford the ring

Grinding for more

But I’m still poor 

Still thanking God 

I ain’t sleeping on the floor

You could never understand what it takes to be me

The key is to not allow what it takes to be you take away from who you truly are, to know thyself is to know thy wealth, wealth as we know is not the energy we call money wealth is the inner you, who are you? circumstances, conditions, stature, nor position defines us, we are self defined, what is your definition find the one that suits you and become that, I AM. God Got You!

Raw honesty and that is why I think I feel so disappointed with everyone. I'm proud u can expose ur experience and thoughts. Most don't and don't listen.

Great write Ak Rio. I agree with The Poet Wize’s comment. Also, we’ll all have negative thoughts at one time or another when times get tough, but it’s at those times when we are truly being tested. One of the hardest things in life to do is walk a straight line. Keep strong faith.
