It’s funny
Because most people think the secret to overcoming
is to lay down
and begin cuming
If people only knew
The truth to overcome really starts within you
Won’t ever overcome when you run to make it cum
Thinking you’ve won, so numb
When you really lose
yourself
Putting pain with names
Mistaken your wealth
Misplacing your worth
Not
Accepting the hurt
Can’t grow
Because
You’re not planted in dirt
Needing the soil to rid the spoil of the toxins
To grow through
Leaving you rotten
If they’re something you can’t work through
Releasing them
Leaves room
For the water to root
For you to grow yourself
To gain
Because you are the loot
The most prized possession
You could ever have in possession
Is you
Have a healthy obsession
With the fact
That you can have you
But you won’t ever own yourself
If there never is
A break-through
