Battle buddy I’m up again I toss and turn, a good night sleep as what i yearn These PTSD symptoms keep me awake. I just want to sleep for fucks sake. And then it happens my eyes close, I’ll try to sleep I suppose But the horror doesn’t stop there. It’s the same place I go when I stare. A deep, dark hole sunken in making me feel like I can’t win It consumes me in the night, ignites my fight or flight No doubt, due to the nightmares within the things I see and what could’ve been The darkness is there the darkness can see that this person I am is not me I used to be full of energy in life and now that’s changed I’m full of strife Who am I now and where am I meant to be right here right now is what I say to me Right here right now in this treatment center because a new doors opening it’s time to enter It’s time to begin grow and heal. And yes, it’s time to let God take the wheel. I will make it I will survive, and in this life I will strive To be a better version of me, so the whole world may see Then, this info I will share with my battle, helping them like I was helped so their bodies don’t rattle Make a change is what I’ll do and this new path is what I’ll pursue Hand-in-hand with my battles in my left and right that help me find my sight I’ll be there for them like they were for me then we can all laugh and let it be Let Yesterday go to push forward evermore then I promised my friend you are soar To higher heights to a new place within, and I’ll always be there letting you know you can beat this you can win You can be you again you can be free you can heal to just like me So take my hand as it is time to make this great big world, yours and mine Godspeed
