Escape your lies and self-deception
like time out runs the clock
and like the waves
always stay ahead of the ocean
Whatever you hold onto is nothing
compared to what is left
after you let go of the illusions
blocking your path to reality
No matter how hard you try
there is no escaping who you are
Eventually all clouds clear
and the real you shines through
Once it does, there is no hiding
no more pretending
you can be anything better
than who you already are
