Lucky – Sade K_Lifeline Jan 2020

It’s all too much
and it’s all the time
But I can’t give up
& I can’t rewind
So I – continue
to work through
this endless abyss
of issues
the struggles of life
& the strain on my mind

No longer can I sit still & stagnant
Now I have to take action
If the answer’s in acceptance
then I’ll grab control with my own hands
My power is beyond me
and I’m done with fear entrapping
my soul –
And it’s all I can do
to for my self stay true
let it go, let you do you
and live in this moment
to its full potential
And breath – just be
the best real me

And it’s so hard
but by far the best part
is knowing I’m still here
even though so often I have wished for different
every hour is a bigger win than the start.
And here I am –
Open arms & beating heart
Yeah I’ve changed my whole perspective,
embraced forgiveness, and let the light in
where once only knew dark.
I fed on resentment and kept myself poisoned
to teach me a lesson – never trust again.
I’m done being bitter, I want something better
Now every fiber of my being can be heard screaming
I AM READY

So this is me
fully realizing
that I’m strong enough,
and I always was.
and now finally
I know nothing can stop me
cause I’ll be fighting for forever
but that’s better than dying.

And I’m one of the lucky ones, yeah
My gratitude it grows each day.
No I don’t think that I’m invincible
but I have no doubt that I’ll figure it out along the way
And all my emptiness is still filled with so much pain
Well, maybe that’s okay.

Yeah so this is me
fully realizing
that I’m good enough
and I’m worth it all.
So now finally
I know nothing can stop me
if I keep getting back up
whenever I fall

Cause I am strong
Yeah I am strong
I’m one of the lucky ones

I am strong, I am strong
I’m one of the lucky ones
one of the lucky ones, yeah
