Just pick me...
Just pick me.
I'm shouting from the top of my lung,
This voice becomes like prongs
Climbing me from feet to head and no more.
They've become like nails
Turned outwards pushing everyone away.
They can't touch me and neither can you.
It's my security,
It's an absurdity
But seriously
Just pick me...
Just pick me.
I've been standing in your rain
Begging for the shade.
You feel my eyes
Wrapped around your body every time you're nearby.
I know you see the longing,
The yearning in these eyes.
So pick me,
Do away with all the misery and pick me.
There's not a day that goes by
That I don't let you know I'm here
Standing, waiting for your go ahead,
Take my hand lead me away
I'm begging please
Because this is the last day
That I'm standing in the rain
Taking all of this pain without gain...
Baby please, you could pick me.
But you've got me by the hand just the same as her.
Good bye
This will not continue any further than here,
It's where your nonsense comes to end.
It's where I rise from the bottom
To embrace my gift, my destiny,
Too long I've focused on getting you,
Stifling my gift to remain your subordinate,
I was made to be inordinate.
I've felt a burning in my soul
Now it's growing cold so I have to break away
From your poison,
Get away from your dark cloud.
Take your hands off
I don't need to be lead like a child.
I am my own gifted and empowered.
For too long I have bowed
Feeling less endowed
I feel the love, it grounds me.
The sun shining on me.
