Give it time
Sometimes my ego gets the best of me
Sometimes I look in mirrors and pray they break
So I can put the pieces back together
Even if my hands bleed
Even if it’s bad luck
Every shard is important to me
Every shard contributes to a perfect peace
Sometimes my worries consume me
What if I’m not good enough
What if I’m diluted
Emotions plus indecision
Equals convoluted
But that’s not the solution
Sometimes breathing overwhelms me
So I try to hold my breath
But the fire in my lungs
Lights up my chest
Am I a dragon
Or a martyr
I set myself ablaze
My flames might lick you
It’s best you stay away
Sometimes failure seems inevitable
Is trying justified
Is a liar justified
If he looks you in the eyes
If the eyes are the manifestation of soul
In the 3D
I bet you’d rather I be blind
Than to put you in a bind
Sometimes you gotta give it time
I guess
Sometimes you gotta give time
I guess
