Rising to another level. <br />And cleansed from the bullshit, <br />Other folks shoveled... <br />I can be abrasive I admit to that! <br />But I don't scatter nonsense, <br />Or run like a timid cat! <br />I've clawed my way to achieve where I am. <br />Whether others understand me... <br />I don't give a damn! <br />If it wasn't for God rushing to my aid, <br />I would have been in a plot <br />Unmarked in a grave! <br />Rising to another level... <br />I see what keeps most afraid! <br />Restricted by denials, <br />And obstacles in their way!<br /><br />Lawrence S.
