My inner voice asks
Is it fact
Or is it fiction
Forgive me for the
Contradiction
I’m wishing
That I’d stop and listen
Put myself in your position
Grapple with indecision
Trust my intuition
Breathe through this constriction
I’m still intact
Nothing’s missing
Sitting
At the heart of passion
Exists a question
Do I really need all this
Recognition
I’m already a man of
Distinction
Calm down
Said the master tactician
My casket’s full of hopes
My dreams on exhibition
My life’s mission
Give myself permission
Let go of restriction
Bypass limitation
Joyous jubilation
I have ample ambition
All these juicy fruits
I’m bringing to fruition
