Winning

Death lingers at the bottom
Doubt grows in the middle
Life is lived on the edge
and that's why i risked a little
But i stayed away from the top
For i lacked the confidence
The image i had of myself
was not of my own volition
Guilt deeply ingrained in me
Society deemed me a failure
But when i found my true calling
I knew i found my freedom
And that's why i run fast
I never waited with the normal
Normal was a teenage dream
And that dream was just an illusion
And now i'm winning
I must be winning
I choose to win
For once in my life
Society's an identity prison
Never built by its people
Isolation by the tens of thousands
That's why we geek hack these tunnels
Norms dictated by governments
Have us beat to respective functions
They can't slow us down with fear
Not when we have the world fighting with us
And now i'm winning
I must be winning
I choose to win
For once in my life
You should always fear
what society deems a worthless man
For he could turn into an idea
instead of a disposable asset
I wrote for my right to live
You wrote for your right to fame
I've decided now to win or die
No stepping stones left in my game
And now i'm winning
I must be winning
I choose to win
For once in my life

When hope fails a servant or prey,
Anger frees him from all the chains,
If hope disappoints, anger prevails,
And freedom is worth all the pain.

You stand out from the norm my friend. Some of your lines change the shape of my mouth. My ears are open, keep em coming, and keep on winning.
