What Do You Do

When you realize you’ve reached the end of the line
But you don’t want to turn around and face the past
What do you do?

You made a vow to never walk away from this
But you see that if you left then there’s nothing you’ll miss
What do you do?

When things have gone as far as they can ever go
Do you keep pushing on or admit it’s the end
What do you do?

To be a man of your word, prideful and stubborn
A fool asking foolishly to the universe
What do you do?

If you keep holding out and waiting for something more
Knowing full well that there’s nothing else for you there
What do you do?

Prize

Here I am looking at you
The balls in your hands will you score
I give resistance but I
Want you to add points on the board
You are running a blitz pass
But I want to intercept you
We are on different teams
Is it too much to assist you.  

It's a game but I'm looking for the win
It's a shame but you still won't let me

It's your time
Claim your prize.

Take up the sport and get the goal
It's a game of points and wins
What are your here for? Get the win!

So celebrate with your friends
Knowing all of this could be yours.
I see you eying the prize
But you haven't finished the game
Focus on what you want now
Score the points and then take me home
So let's see now what happens
When you let me play on your team

It's a game but I'm looking for the win
It's a shame but you still won't let me

It's your time
Claim your prize.

Take up the sport and get the goal
It's a game of points and wins
What are your here for? Get the win!

It's You

I knew loving you wouldn't be easy
Still I give you myself completely
I know sometimes I drive you crazy
With everything I expect of you lately
So I don't do it to be difficult
I do it because you are capable
You sell yourself short for a miracle
But there's nothing I'm more sure of

It's you, it's always you
No matter what, I believe in you

There are times that you make me discouraged
When I try to make you encouraged
I just believe in your potential
So Don't ever doubt your self as essential
I don't want to make you a better man
You already are and I know you can
Be everything that you doubt you can be
The man I love and choose to see

It's you, it's always you
No matter what, I believe in you

I hear the pain in your laugh
And see it in your eyes
I'll try and subdue it a million times
You say you're no good for me
I'm sorry that's a lie
I'll stand here and testify as to why

It's you, it's always you
No matter what, I believe in you

"Counting My Mistakes"

1 thinking without you I'll be done
2 worrying about what you do
3 giving you power over me
4 thinking you could give me more

Making a list regretting it twice
I'm sitting back and looking back

Counting my mistakes with you

5 wondering if you ever lie
6 having to make this list
7 comparing you to heaven
8 hoping that I'm not too late.

Taking this list and regretting a miss
I'm looking back I can't take back

Counting my mistakes with you
All the mistakes I made with you.

"Coming For You"



I’m ready to put up a fight
Do whatever it takes
To bask in side your light
Whatever are the stakes

I’m going to show you I’m not like the rest
You can leave your baggage in the past
Come on if you need to put me to the test
Once I choose someone I work to make it last

I hope you’re ready cause
I’m coming for you
Don’t put up a fight cause
I’m coming for you
I’ll make you fall in love
I’m coming for you
Please don’t resist my love
I’m coming for you

If you let me I’ll break your walls
If you can let me in
I wait for all your calls
Your heart I want to win

I hope you can let me in so you can see
I’m going to give you everything
Don’t let your past broken heart silence my plea
You’re already starting to make my heart sing

I hope you’re ready cause
I’m coming for you
Don’t put up a fight cause
I’m coming for you
I’ll make you fall in love
I’m coming for you
Please don’t resist my love
I’m coming for you

I’m not going anywhere
Patiently waiting for you…

"May There Be Love"

Since when did my right to love who I choose
Infringe on your archaic backwards beliefs
If I marry a man what is it that you would lose?
Right now I’m in your small mined prison awaiting release

Out of the darkness comes the light
Out of your hate may there be love
It doesn’t matter what you think is right
No matter what may there be love

I’m sorry you don’t care to understand
Your ignorance will not ever hold me down
And I know that my heart won’t allow me to be damned
Wake up stand up and open up to take a good look around

Out of the darkness comes the light
Out of your hate may there be love
It doesn’t matter what you think is right
No matter what may there be love

"Dreams"



My hearts been broken many times
That I’m running out of rhymes
And I’ve broken a few when I was still healing
When my mind was still reeling
But no matter how many times it breaks
No matter how invested or the stakes
It always hurts just as bad
I’m always just as sad

Someone once told me…
“don’t have hopes, expectations, or dreams
And you won’t be disappointed”
But I’m still a fool
I hope dreams will meet expectations
And I’m always disappointed

There’s the one who drove me to drink
My sanity to the brink
And the one who showed me drugs and life of excess
Another failed success
I wonder what I always do so wrong
Have I always made mistakes for so long
You’d think by now that I’d give up
But I can’t just give up

Someone once told me…
“don’t have hopes, expectations, or dreams
And you won’t be disappointed”
But I’m still a fool
I hope dreams will meet expectations
And I’m always disappointed

Here I am climbing another mountain
I keep telling myself not to expect anything
But I know when I get thrown back down
It will return, that all too familiar pain

Someone once told me…
“don’t have hopes, expectations, or dreams
And you won’t be disappointed”
But I’m still a fool
I hope dreams will meet expectations
And I’m always disappointed

…Clinging on to dreams
All I end up with are dreams
