Lyrics Accept the Things - JVON LAWRENCE

Tats on my arms is like a warrior shrine
I feel defeat so inner peace is what I'm hurried to find
And my encouragement just furthers declines
Cause when I lost some key figures in my life i was hurting inside
I prayed and prayed please don't let the news be real
One of my best friends was slained and it behooves me still
Why your life wasn't extended forever
I miss you Chris J. Velez A. P. you was meant for this era
But you're gone it was hard for me to subscribe to that
I would shout your name to world and the world would shout it back
Did what I could I hope your spirit is proud in fact
Before these dreams the nightmares made me whole insomniac
They say it'll get better with meditation
But i've been suffering from sleep deprivation
The mission was for me to be the greatest
Guess my life took a different course but I'll accept the changes

Through all the circumstances
I shined I made it through
Through all the trials and tribulations
I looked up to you
You told me it would be okay 
I been learning to accept my fate

I done walked through the fire
Had to sit with the burns
I showed love and support
Ain't got spit in return
These the nightmares of a
Kind hearted rhyme artist
Who grind hardest
While others was feasting
I died starving
It's cool it's a gift and a curse
When you're strategic
My visions can be brilliant
I hate when they can't see it
Had a partner for over twelve years
We ain't speaking
Lou told us to patch it up
I'll accept it but he can keep it
A wise man said protect your energy
Dead things only become real if you let it be
I'm a continue on this path calm and steadily tunnel vision
I only give a damn what's ahead of me
Level headed I'm at my coolest
Even though I'm a taurus the bull is how my mood is
God must of knew this he gave me his better traits
So I'm accept my fate like jesus accepted judas

Through all the circumstances
I shined I made it through
Through all the trials and tribulations
I looked up to you
You told me It would be okay 
I been learning to accept my fate

Before i end give me a minute to collect
Cause some things are just hard for me to accept
The last four years without you just made me stressed
I've been trying to find light in this dark that i've been kept
I been searching for a breakthrough done found ways to make due
My love for you is diamonds I have to get it appraisal'd
You're probably like why you ain't do more and i don't blame you
From the point of view you're given your mother done twist the angles
You don't understand the courts
Hope that you never will
I watch the custody fade worst pain you can ever feel
My glass half empty i'm begging for a refill
Had to accept the things that the lord was soon to reveal
I learned to forgive never forget
I accepted my rights all my regrets
A bigger man i apologize what i said
Accept me when i'm alive
Please love me when i am dead

Through all the circumstances
I shined I made it through
Through all the trials and tribulations
I looked up to you
You told me It would be okay 
I been learning to accept my fate

God grant me the serenity
To accept the things I cannot change
Courage to change the things I can
And wisdom to know the difference
Living one day at a time
Enjoying one moment at a time
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace
Faded
