Dead End


Dead End (But Must Go On)

By: Ahmed Mire

 

I had this vision,

A vision that was never expected.

Foretold my life in which seem forever

And I had to put the pieces back together.

I flown freely from place to place.

I was a master in what I was doing

And I had nothing to lose.

Therefore I was place in a subjective situation

Lost my wings I couldn't fly.

No matter how hard I try

Just to get back up

It felt like I was being held down.

I see a long tunnel

What seem like a never ending trend.

Walk so long

Days and days.

No matter how hard I try to get away.

I just couldn't.

Again something was holding me back.

Was it a ghost of my past.

Was it lies that came to haunt me.

No!!!

I am not to be held down because of this.

Life must go on

It can't just end like this.

It's too hard to believe

That the walls are caving in on me.

Because no matter how hard I try

Something is always holding me back.

It's like a dead end road

Where you turn back.

A place you couldn't go

Because it was blocked.

Life goes on

And it's hard to believe it,

But I lost my wings.

I couldn't rise no more-

I had my strengths.

It was my time to make a difference,

But why does it end like this.

What happen if everything

I've done end with nothing.

I worked so hard to get where I'm was.

If i didn't quit back then

I would've been dead.

Yeah, better off dead

Can't you see.

Words they ain't nothing,

But life is something.

Like a specimen I had destroyed.

It was to be preserve

But I couldn't do it.

I may cry not because I'm sad.

It's because one day

 I'll lose everything that I once had.

The truth is the truth

You can't go back.

You can't just live life a lie.

Like a never ending road,

You can't reach the end of it.

No matter how hard you try

You can't get out of it.

Like a dead end

You can't go on,

But you must turn back

Because life goes on.
