Let Me Introduce Myself

Let me go from the present to the past
My childhood was not bad
But it's not what you would call pleasant,
Father was in and out,
My mother gave it all up for her kids,
She raised us in a very loving home,
But don't get it wrong, we had problems,
I have two sisters, no brothers
I never got any talks about the birds
And the bees,
I knew more about the rent and
Late fees,
To a degree, I have lived a rough life,
My childhood was not a learning
Experience, it was more like pain
And love mixed into one
Teenage years really did not get
Any better
My mom tried to show me right from
Wrong,
But I wouldn't let her
I thought I knew it all
And I wanted love
But through all my stupid, immature acts
God blessed me from above with a child
But to be honest, that kind of made
My life more wild.
I did more foul tings after I had
A child than before.
I'm being honest, because I'm real to the core
I have lied,
And abandoned,
And made so many mistakes,
No medicine,
Or cure can help how my heart aches,
I was young and I messed
Around, and hung out with the wrong crowd,
And look what happens every action
Has a reaction
I'm an adult now
And problems still are here I fear
They will consume me one day,
I pray to God that I can help
Others all the time,
Not just in rhyme,
But in spirit
And leadership
Forget fame and money
I want to survive
And go to heaven
And take as many people as possible
With me presently, I am getting better
While my problems are getting worse,
But I'm not scared of guns, knives,
Or even the hearse
Because I have God
And no one can take that,
But I still have troubles
Work,
Bills,
Relationships,
And just life itself.
Wealth
Can't solve it,
And neither can you,
Let me introduce myself,
Sincere,
And God is the only thing I fear
