Move forward

Forward move

A forward and upward movement

Going to a place called beyond

No longer limited

No longer restricted

I am unlimited

I am full so full

Receiving my overflow

Going to a place called beyond

Yes yes yes

Because I keep saying yes

Beyond is where I go

No longer am I stagnant

Now freely flowing like the ink from my pen

Dropping dope encouragement

To family, strangers, and friends

No longer am I drowning in the quicksand of my own life

I held on so tight

Changed my thinking

To transform my life

Move forward

Forward move

A forward and upward movement

Removing the rearview mirror that gave me constant access to my past pain

Blaming all others when I only had myself to blame

For we have the power to allow people to treat us a certain way

We must treat ourselves the way in which we want others to obey

How we love ourselves

Oh how we love ourselves

For when you love yourself

You won't settle for the mediocre love of someone else

For people can only love you to the capacity

That they love themselves

So now if and when you get the pleasure of being in the atmosphere of my love

It will surely overwhelm you

because my capacity in which I love myself is in overflow

Overdrive

As I strive and thrive

On this amazing path of greatness

Looking back

Distracts from the now

Enough time of mine has been wasted

Move forward

Forward move

A forward and upward movement

Making multiple improvements

Doubt is a luxury I cannot afford

From this day forward

I'm doubting the doubt

I am going for more
