I'm Ready to Change

I'm Ready to Change

A Poem by Flowetic Soulchild

Hook:" I'm ready to change my life
but I need time
Don't expect me to change over night.
I'm ready to change my life
but I need time
These things don't happen over night."



I did alot of things in my life
I never thought twice
that it was wrong, or was right
I been walking the shadows of night
Searching for light
my past has a grasp on my present
and its squeezing me tight
just to open my eyes everyday
its a fight
Its a mountain I'm climbing
so please understand I need time
time to realign
time to redesign
time to redefine
this path that I'm on
but my mind's so far gone
and A new day will dawn
So I swallow my pride
cause I feel deep inside
I'm needing a change
cause I cause so much pain
and I see all the shame it was all just a game
but things just aint the same
so these feeling have changed
and I cringe at the sound of my very own name
I look in their eyes and can feel everything
my mind in a daze
cause these vision inside
cant be erased
I take a deep breath
I'm so full of space
I exhale
but I cant even taste
I'm such a disgrace
I lay on the alter
In need of God's grace
I pray that you take me away
from this place
away from it all
it feels like I'm falling
I need to be saved
I look in the mirror
and stand face to face
Time's of the essence
there is none to waste
I make haste...

"I'm ready to change my life
but I need time
Don't expect me to change over night.
I'm ready to change my life
but I need time
These things don't happen over night."
