my mouth was full of wisdom, that flowed straight from my soul
the knowledge was so old it rotted its stronghold
but only at the tip for it was intact at the root
but the pain that came with it forced this yapper down to mute
my wisdom ran so deep these teeth are just so long
if i made any mistakes i couldn't say i wasn't wrong
for i know that with the thoughts that just flow from in my head
i would be misunderstood as my actions are misread
until the day i opened up and i began to tell the tale
of the day that i first noticed raven hair was turning pale
from fear from life from tears, from strife familiar on their tone
just can't can't keep on playing a girl when i know that i am grown
i pressed on moving forward and i bit down on the plate
to taste the cake that helps me live achieving all that's great
i smile approaching love and i feel the joy again
and i finally let go of every lying faking friend
i hold on to my dear family as we adjust our way
standing here together as my Lord makes it ok
no longer numb from hurtnow the opposite is true
and i can finally get into what came on earth to do
positivty in life is the circle that i choose
and as long as i stay in it, there's no way i'll ever lose
i am stepping out on faith can't see me breaking no more teeth
cuz my wisdom is the thing that helps these lungs to breathe
so i'm spilling out my heart and i'm pouring out my soul
with a smile upon my face because i'm gonna reach my goal
