Your image in my mind is still loving and kind.
You’ve broken hearts many, the pieces I can’t find.

Your image in my eyes is not a bunch of lies.
Even though you never responded to my cries.

The real image of you is maybe not all that true.
But whenever I close my eyes and hold my heart.
All I ever see is this image of you.

May 2018 be your guiding light.
May it give you courage and might.
May it bless your family and friends.
May it bring you love that never ends.
May it guide you through every twist and curve.
May it grant you everything, everything you deserve.

When I sit down and try to reflect,on memories that didn't go too well.
I realise that it's these memories that give you stories to tell.

When I sit down and try to reflect, I see flashbacks of my times in pain.
I am glad I went through what I did, as these were great lessons that didn't go in vain.


When I sit down and try to reflect, I think of things I need to mend.
I have to admit and take blame for what happened, I have no reasons to defend.

When I sit down and try to reflect, I feel sometimes I wasn't enough and I didn't suffice.
But I lift myself and carry on only to remind me - 'Today is the first day of the rest of your life'.

You can't tie me down or put me in #BOX
I have learnt all about life from the University of Hard Knocks.
I will never give in or give up the fight.
At the end of the tunnel , I know I will find light.

Out of the #BOX, you know, is totally my thing.
Whatever music life plays at me, I know I am going to sing.
I know I am going to sing, every song I write.
May it be a hot summer day or a bright starry night.

You've been told all your life, you need to fit into a #BOX
Let me tell you they have all been so wrong.
Life is always going to be playing music at you.
All you need to do is break out of the #BOX and just sing along.
