I’m Broken
I’m Broken. I’m Broken
I lost my fight, I lost my soul
I lost my will, I lost it all
But by bit. I let it all depart
Piece by piece. I need me back
I’m Broken. I’m Broken
Beyond repair it feels to me
I want to quit, that cannot be
Strength resides somewhere inside my heart
Nothing should be tearing me apart
I’m Broken. I’m Broken
Destruction caused by my own hand
Here I am stuck in this mystery land
Dealing with individuals that stay the same
They don’t grow up. They stay being lame
I’m Broken. I’m Broken
I can’t seem to find a way to escape
Where are the true heroes, the ones with no cape
I need a hand to get out of this hole
Someone that will help to make me whole
I’m Broken. I’m Broken
Too many types of pain I have taken
The number of heartbroken there ain’t no mistaken
I’m Broken. I’m Broken
My happiness left, my Love got lost
Everything I did came at a cost
I’m Broken. I’m Broken
Too many years have gone in a flash
Beautiful memories are turning to ash
I’m Broken. I’m Broken
I feel like I’m digging my own grave
Getting derailed deep inside a cave
Time passes but I can’t leave my past
I need a way to move forward fast
The sadness I have is unbelievable
Now would be a perfect time for a miracle
No more running, time to stop being a coward
I need to focus and move myself forward
I have many years to achieve my dreams
I can’t do it on my own. I need a team.
I’m Broken. I’m Broken
I lost my fight, I lost my soul
I lost my will, I lost it all
But by bit I let it all depart
Piece by piece, I need me back
I’m Broken. I’m Broken.
I got in trouble with the words spoken
Left in this world without a token
Mistake after mistake cut me real deep
This road ahead of me is truly steep
I’m Broken. I’m Broken
I can’t seem to find my own way
It looks dark even during the day
The light inside of me doesn’t seem to exist
I won’t give up. I will continue to persist
I’m Broken. I’m Broken
There’s nothing that I can’t fix
I just have to find the perfect mix
Love and Loyalty with a bit of confidence
I’m not alone and still I have my independence
I’m Broken. I’m Broken
I’ll gain my fight, I’ll gain my soul
I’ll gain my will, I’ll gain it all
Bit by bit, I’ll let it be
Piece by piece, no stopping me
I’m Broken. I’m Broken
No More.
Gratitude
I need someone that won’t give me attitude when I write them a letter. Shows me gratitude I pour to you my body, my soul, and my heart and never once have you appreciated my art. I’m exhausted, been torn to pieces internally, it’s a grave inside, things will get better hopefully. Yet there are so many pieces that I can’t find.
Where did it all go? I’m losing my mind
I need to relax, breathe. Stay concentrated
I can’t lose my control due to all the hatred
I will continue to stand up. Show my love.
No one is alone. Together we can all be above
Above grief together finding peace
All we want in life is to live at ease.
I can’t have you always giving me attitude
When all I have ever done is give you gratitude
I pour it all to you with every letter
And yet you never make me feel better
There’s no point in me writing all these poems
If all you do is cause me problems
Should I hide everything that I feel
That’s probably the best way to heal
Never have I been backed into a corner
Yet my heart won’t let me forget her.
Disappointment is something I don’t wanna embrace
But losing you is something I cannot face.
I need someone that won’t give me attitude
How else do you need me to show you gratitude
I won’t get on my knees, not gonna beg
I would rather shoot myself, lose a leg
Controlling my feelings, that’s what I lack
All I ever get from is talking smack
I need to quit flaunting my devotion
There’s no point to showing you my true emotion
All you cause is for me to break down
Taking me ona wild ride town through town
Gotta stick to my roots before I drown
I’m a Latino. Loud. Proud. And Brown.
Yes we have a little problem with attitude
Especially when all we do is give our gratitude
I don’t care about money, all this cash
All I ask is to not be treated like trash
I want to give you my body. Soul. and heart.
Yet you keep, slowly, tearing me apart.
Love made me blind to your deception
I lost myself, I wasn’t paying attention
There is so much of me I have to discover
I will not allow hate to take over
Love is for my body. For my inner being
Time to open my eyes look what I’m really seeing.
It’s time for me to give the attitude
But I can’t do it, I ain’t a cruel dude
It’s complicated for me to even so no
Even when I know that’s what I should do
My Heart is filled with love, not hate
I will stop leaving things up to fate
There’s no way that I’ll always be nice
Treat me with respect or pay the price
I won’t always be the best man
But…I will be the best that I can
I will rise always try to stay above
I will always be filled with a lot of love
Love for those that show me gratitude
Not to those that continue to give me attitude.
