Past decisions, juvenile choices, direct your person as an adult,
When haters get a glimpse of wrong they will use it as an insult,
You recklessly deal with your issues as you were a child,
Your temperement, the version you impress will follow you for miles,
Role models you aspire to, to control your future path,
Don't always hold your every answer, your future becomes your past,
Yeah i've raised my fists and scared some people, handled drugs and broke s**t,
But who I was when I made these mistakes do not accumilate to 'it',
I was a messed up broken teenager without an insight to who I was,
And all those mistakes came and bit me on the arse leaving me at a loss,
I know what's right and wrong, the integrity is there,
and at times the guilt grips me deep and leads me to dispair,
What you see is what you get, I am a work in progress,
And yeah I shout my mouth off but genuinely in protest,
I see the problems of the world and those of the human race,
I can pick things up, fluently learn and adapt a brighter face,
When everyone is human and our mistakes all go unpunished,
Creates a personality that will never truly flourish,
Yes I was bad news and best out of everybodies lives,
But I never did throw my mud at you or turn with back shaped knives,
I ain't that person anymore, why can't people let me be?
It's taken a long time to retrace my steps and birth a better me,
So watch your choices and mistakes when in the public eye,
Always take the high road and let sleeping lions lie.
