closer

Once again I'm left standing one step closer to the man I want to be.
Reinvented and reunited with my inner self that's changed and one step closer to being truly free.
Vision is more clear everyday I wake and rise with a chance to get mine.
One step closer to the end yet I'm that much closer to the time I shine.
I may never get there soon enough but I'm getting it in the best way I know, like I should.
Growing inside myself, I just hope I don't burst by becoming to big for my own good.
I'm one step closer today than yesterday because i feel the man in me willing to live.
One step closer than just now just because I have so much more to give.
I've walked many paths that have led me to my own damnation.
But I stand here today knowing the closer I get, away from the suffocation.
I am closer than i have ever been and i am not as close a i want to be before i am done.
And i am who i am growing inside of everything i have learned under the sun.
