I like the taste of blood in my mouth

Lifes ganna get you

It’s going to beat you down

And all you can do is stand back up

Bloodily mouth and all

Give it a smirk, and ask for more

Keep quite until you make it

Not a soul to know

Not a sound to be spoken

The world doesn’t need to know

Time moves as you choose

Are you still free if you reached the sky like you wished it to be, though those chains are the things that hold you up?

Wings made of ash and dust, I still take to the skies

Fly so high I’ll reach the stars, Icarus can you see me now?

Do I make you proud?

I am free now

I take to the skies with these chains that hold me high

Free as free can be, with burned wings of ash and dreams

But I am just this, I am free

With chains that hold me still in the sky

My freedom the price to be free

Your blessing, my curse

Your throne, my crown

Take all that’s mine

Not giving it back this time

My gift, your hands

My kingdom, your throne

Death to all that we know

Falling is hard, standing back up again is easy

You of all people don’t get to give up.

You don’t get to quit! You don’t stop!

You’ve woken up every morning before this. You’ve walked through the hell of your own mind. You’ve stood frozen by your own thoughts. You’ve seen others follow their dreams and live in a light you can only dream of.

So you don’t get to give up. You don’t get to stop. Not you. Never you. Cause you woke up. You stood up. You showed up. You’ve done this every day and you will keep doing it. Stand. Show your mind, you were made to live

Decide now

Are you defined by your past

Shaped by it

Caged by it

Or are you defined by the future you create

Be the creator

Dear world,

It started as a slow walk, when first you told me to give up

Then I began to run, and I felt your anger

You shot me in my knees hoping I would stop

So I crawled on and on, you laid glass before me daring me to move again

It hurt but I wouldn’t surrender

You finally asked why, it had been days and so many nights, my body refusing to give.

It wasn’t that I wasn’t tired, because I was

It wasn’t that I thought I could win

Yes there were other paths

Yes there was another way but not for me

There is only one path for me

I don’t care about the pain

I don’t care how tired I get

My mind is my enemy I don’t need this broken glass to crawl over

Move already. I. Can. Never. Stop.

Stopping, is how I die.

Not yet.

You should know better by now

Don’t make me angry

Don’t get in my way

Don’t try to stop me

You see

I’ll burn heaven and hell to get what I want

The devil made me

Demons raised me

God left me

Now watch me take the crown

My name is King and I’m here to stay

-An angry Avery Parker
