Escape This Matrix
Sorry, I’ve been away for a minute.
I went finding my self, and climbing up in it
I noticed deficiencies, so I made some repairs
then discovered Higher Self by taking the stairs
and I explored it. For so many years I ignored it.
Went my own way with my vision distorted
by women and their lady parts. Paper chasing made me start
recognizing I was following a script of crazy thoughts –
training my brain for acquisition of things
instead of strong character and all that it brings
like: love and respect, passion, identity,
circumspect ways, living life as it’s meant to be lived –
in the moment! That construct of time
my opponent’s been using to lock up my mind
in confusion is just an illusion, a cell
with walls of delusion. I was under a spell
until I snapped out of it. I got my mind right.
I may not be free, but my duty’s to fight
to attain Higher Self – give it my full attention.
If not, as with birth, I will die in detention.

I definitely feel this Gem bro.. This character was me some years back! I stopped letting my higher self down and started to show him some attention... Outstanding capture! You never disappoint with the artwork.
