Thinking out loud

Don't know what I'm in search to find

so I'll just say what's on my mind

my cup runneth over so I'll spill it just how it came to me

I've got to get these thoughts out before the consumption strangles me

it's strange to me

how I continue to repeat the same life cycles

every time trying to do it differently but end up with the same outcome

it's tiresome and my sons

surely only see a failure

all these years that flyby and still can't ever get it together.

Contradiction speaks when I tell them you can be anything you want to be

you can do anything you want to do

whatever you put your mind to

work hard at it, it shall manifest, and come to pass

you do the math

they're too smart not to put two and two together

still I weather the weather

and try to be better

even in the struggle. If they only knew

hopefully before they grow up they'll see the Breakthrough
