I've lied, cheated, and stolen
I've been good and I've been bad
My Confession
I've asked for the truth while I lied
I've gone against my own morals and principles for the popular choice
My Confession
I've chased God
I've ran from God
I've looked God in the face and cried
I've looked in the mirror and cried
My Confession
I've had deals of questionable legality
I've strong armed my way into bad deals all for profit
My Confession
I've just done a lot of wrong
My REAL Confession
I am a broken man, haunted by a clouded past. Raised by parents I never really knew. Tormented by the dreams and memories I have. I have seen more than I should have. I have faced the storm and walked through the hurricane.
I have created my own trouble
And attempted to forge my own path
I have...
Cried
Hit things
Been sad
Depressed
Hurt
Lost
Confused
Gone...
I am an incomplete man, I've come no where near the potential that lies inside of me. Truth is I don't even know how to access it, I don't know what it is and to be real, it scares me sometimes. What if I fail? What If I don't make it? What if I let myself and my family down?
I am just a man...
A man who is destined for greatness, but sometimes that destiny puts an exorbitant amount of pressure on me that no one seems to understand. It's hard to be a role model when you need one yourself, It's hard to have people looking to you when sometimes you just want to be left alone. And it's even harder to be the man you're supposed to be when you have 3 little brothers looking up at you...
Ever see Shrek? Ogres are like onions, many layers...
I've given you a small look into me...
I'm an ogre..
Big
Ugly
and with many layers

Who am I?

This is not a perfect world...Everybody has flaws, some worst than yours...I know how it feels to feel incomplete, & Lost...I feel those everyday they are constantly standing beside me one on each side...But all I can do is keep my head up & keep smiling knowing that I'm God's child & he is the only one that has a Say so in our life...We are Young Mr. Q...& yess we have a lot more to learn...So I can't sit here & say that I understand you because I'm not a man...But I can say that I can relate to your feelings from a woman's perspective...So you keep ya head up & keep walking beside God & holding his hand...I promise you everything will work out for the better...
