"This is my Philosophy"

Written by Kimberly Ann Goins

This is my philosophy
Get with the program if you want to get with me
My life isn't some kind of tragedy
Actually, you are laughable; that's why you make it comedy

You talking all of this and that
About how I'm not really all that
Well that may be true, but who is it that keeps on calling me?
Trying to convince me to see
You instead of seeing me
Cause the reality
Is that there never really was a you and me

I'm going to speak some words you never heard
Boy, I know I'm confusing you with my many words
I don't want you anymore
There is no room for you, and I can't ignore
The words that you said
You can't take them back cause they're in my head
And what you said hurt me so bad
Made me cry salty tears; I was so sad

This is my philosphy
If you can't add to this greatness
Or to my success
Then I must confess
That there is no you and me

This is my philosophy
You had a treasure that you weren't prepared for
You knew I was so much more
Than any girl you'd ever known
But all of those bad seeds you've sown
In my life
It was like a knife
You plunged directly into my heart

There can never be us
Cause you only want to beat me down so much
You have to stomp me with your large, pounding feet
Till, there is less than anything, and I must retreat
Not speak my mind
Not speak at all or at any time
That's what you want me to be
Someone silenced by your insensitivity
But it was more than just being mean
It was demonic, and that jealousy you had was so green
You couldn't make me your wife
Not when you saw my life
And was jealous because I didn't need you
I'm a superstar in my own right; I know what I have to do
I'm on a mission, a soul-saving mission
And you were interfering with that, trying to prevent its fruition

This is my philosophy
Not just anybody can be with me
There are few who are chosen
Because still more are frozen
And mired in uncertainty and unmoving
Cause they are so damn afraid of losing
But I'm a climber; I make mountains my valleys
And I am always looking above and around all trees
Cause I can see bright lights over the horizon
And I know I will soon see the Sun(Son)
So just keep on traversing the world in your own way
And I'll just continue to be me each day
And I'll write in words that few can understand
Puzzling parables written by an invisible Hand

This is my philosophy
I don't need you when God got me
He is who looks out and over me
He is who lets my eyes see
And that is key
Cause He poured water over my eyes
Now, I can see countless stars in the skies
And now, I no longer fall for your fruitless lies
And your effort is barren, no it doesn't multiply
Cause there is no soil in which it could plant root
I rid my mind and soul of unnecessary soot
It's not blackened nor burdened
But it is pure and devoid of hurtness

This is my philosophy.
