I wrote this at a really dark point in my life where I was living a bit too hard and it started to take a toll on me. This was probably written somewhere around 1999-2003. Life was a blur at the time.

I ain’t the first dude to claim
I’ve walked some long, dark roads
I’ve traveled some wild and crazy paths
I’ve driven too many hard, rough highways in life
I’ve made it harder than it coulda been
I’ve let life be more difficult than it shoulda been
Oh how it woulda been

The choices I made
I coulda been like the rest
I coulda been like everyone else
If I woulda only followed the pack
The right pack, not the wrong pack
If I woulda only followed orders
And always did whatever I was told
If I woulda followed all the damn rules
I shouldn’t have broken alotta them rules
I coulda conformed and I coulda had a normal life
For all practical purposes

How do I feel about me?
How do I feel about myself?
What do I think about me?
What do I think about myself?

Was it just a speck on the wall?
Did it really happen at all?
That part of my life
Could’ve been my downfall
It cost me many things
It cost me friends and love
It caused me pain
It caused me grief
But somehow I rose above
All that shit
And all that drama
Managed to make me even stronger

It’s the general consensus
Even if it goes unmentioned
If you’re one of the few out of the loop
You need to stand at attention
Clear your head, think straight, and damn sure be listenin’
