I got a chip on my shoulder
My world’s gettin’ colder
I’m tired of hearing “you can’t”
my soul sits and smolders.
I know I’m better than that,
listen closer I’m not missin’ lower,
I’m just liftin’ boulders
And you’re just wishin’
I would quit and reholster
No chance
I grow fast
blow past
while you’re movin’ like a slow dance
Master of my own fate
Carryin’ my own weight,
I’m sick and tired, of bein’ sick and tired
I don’t have the patience required
To contain this fire
You never believed in me!
I’m callin’ you a liar.
Everything that’s prior is behind me,
I’ll put aside the “might be”s and set my sights higher.
Conspire against me
Inspire the best in me
It’s the same thing
try to stop my ascent and see
That my sentencing demanded
My presence above where you landed
I’d say that I planned it
Except that I’d take credit for a divine hand and I’m not in the habit of quick grabbin’.
So one day when you look up
Expect to see my face and get shook up
Adios for now, mi amigo
Let’s part ways and see where we go.

Well written. I like your
Well written. I like your flow and rhyme. The title caught me too, I see myself as a pessimist and after reading this I'm reminded of that saying life's 10% what you're given and 90% how you respond to it. Keep up the good work.
Long days and pleasant nights
