Full

by Trinity Rayne

How do we make things in life once again be full
How do we make things in life once again be complete and whole
When did our lives start becoming lackluster and dull
When did our lives start losing heart and soul
All of us people want to fulfill our destinies before we die
All of us people want to climb and reach the sky
All of us people want satisfaction with things we try
All of us people want to be rich with things money can't buy
We just want to be happy at the end of life's race
We just want to know where we belong and know our place
We don't want to be knocked down continuously on our face
We just want to win life's baseball game before going to home base
We look for things to fill our void
When we do find something were overjoyed
But some things we come across can make us feel we've been destroyed
But we can't be whole if were always paranoid
So how do we make our dreams come true
Those of us who don't know haven't a clue
We just sit and ask ourselves what do we do
I do know that we can't rely on wishing stars to help us make it through
Sometimes we seek life's fulfilment in the prayers that we prayed
Sometimes we seek life's fulfilment with the money we get paid
Sometimes we seek life's fulfilment with amazing sex and getting laid
But ultimately those things don't help and we end up getting played
Sometimes in order to fulfill life we have to do it on our own
Even if it means facing the world alone
There will be mistakes we make and things we wish we would have known
But we can't give up and our determination has to stay firm as stone
Just like a car we have to fill up our lives with our own kind of gas
We have to figure out how to make life full before we let it slip by and pass
The negative things that only make us empty are like a cancerous tumor taking up mass
The negative things only hurt us like broken glass
We have to stop and think about what makes us full before we can keep going
The positive things that make us feel full are a light to us always glowing
The constant need for life's fulfilment is like a river always flowing
When we finally find what makes us fulfilled we are more understanding and knowing
When we also achieve fulfillment it's like finding an old lost friend
We're ok and don't have to pretend
Because it is our life's purpose we choose to defend
It feels good to be full before life's end
