Self-Control
I kept my heart in my pocket
Poker face on my sleeve,
Tied my hands to the money
Cut the chains from my feet,
Said if I land on my face
I gotta get back up,
Learn to stay in my place
But never get passed up,
Always be down for the chase
But never get gassed,
Keep raising the stakes
Even when I'm down on my luck.
When the dopamine hits
Fly high but be cautious,
Because your lows are 10x lower than the height that you've fallen
Keep on praying, pray often
If you need to cry then please do
Cause no ones a tougher critic than you are on you,
When you feel you mind change but your heart stays the same
Check those around you,
The devil's calling your name.
You're in control of your everything...
your Happiness,
Destiny,
Success,
Come backs,
Choose to make your heart strong enough to bounce back from set backs and failures,
You have the power to make your wildest dreams become tangible,
So please reach for the stars
Use your self-control,
To steer this soul of yours into a league of your own.
