Right With MyselfA Poem by Brandon HouserI don't want to pretend I just want to defend Everyone whose been Down and out I don't want to fight I want all to be right And never have to Struggle with doubt I want to reach for the stars And scream from afar That life is much better Not worse But first I have to be right with myself I want to break from my chains I want to run in the rain And do what was meant From the start I want to give all my love I want to praise the Lord above And show what I can do With my heart I want to do it all And I don't want to fall Or wait for my feelings To burst But first I have to be right with myself I want to say yes I can I want to hold someone's hand And let someone Hold on to mine I want to say in the end I was a good friend And I did my best To be kind I want to have a happy home I don't want to die alone I want to stand up and say I'm not cursed But first I have to be right with myself
