Only The Strong Survive

The Meek Revamped

By Kimmie HitePublished 4 years ago 2 min read

My sins won’t fall to my children

I’m breaking chains and curses like it’s a Revolution

I’m elevating and flipping the bs fear and hate created

I’m focusing on better and brighter things

And breathing that into the next generation

Lessons learned

Lessons gained

I’ve struggled and sacrificed

So it’s time to live again

I reflected on my past

Took the good and left the bad

Added to my best frame of mind

In my present that’s facts

I emerged even stronger than my last like a Phoenix

Took the hate and the fear burned it up into ashes

I refuse to let others hate cause me to fear being me

For the sake of my future

I embraced every scar both visible and unseen

And wore them like an armor so others can no longer hurt me

Rising from the ashes of what created me

I’m shining in my image thoroughly

Had to learn my mental was the key

And protect it with some boundaries

Can’t have a bad attitude

And expect the world to open doors for you

Positive thoughts breed opportunities

But you gotta be willing to put in work

I make no apologies for the things I have done

Because I know I ALWAYS put others before me

I make no apologies for the things I am doing

Because I’m learning to make me a priority

I make no apologies for the things I will do

Because it’s time to use my gifts and go after whats owed me

If my truth bothers or hurts you

Im being serious when I say

My growth has no qualms with you

Your growth has qualms with me

Get yourself checked out and cleansed by the fire like I did

Strip yourself by the layers and take a hard look in the mirror

If you don’t like what you see better make a change

Because at the end of the day we are all here to learn, process, and grow

While some learn this fact and gain the meaning of life

Others stay stuck and gain the meaning of hate, fear, and envy

That’s why at the end of the day

Only The Strong Survive

And gain the world in the end

Move past your turmoils and your beefs

Leave it in the rear view

That’s the meaning of OTSSDYNASTY

Because When it comes down to it

Our sins will NEVER be our kids

We’ve grown wiser from the casualties

All we trying to do is live, laugh, and love

Just to help minimize the fear, hate, and envy

So there’s no unnecessary wars

Taking away our families
