Free Minds Rap

By RJ

Free Minds, we on another level
Digging in the earth, wisdom is the shovel
Beyond this life, I’m guided like a pedal
Still chasing goalz, I’m reaching for a medal
You can be positive, just do more
Everybody has a way, just choose yours
Never loosen up, always leave your screws on
Open up your eyes, you can open a new door
Think you in the struggle by yourself, but you’re not alone
I know sometimes it gets hard, without a back bone
When you’re seeking out knowledge, it feels unknown
Just never give up, be strong and hold on
You’re on a roller coaster, different turns, might take a twist
You don’t have room for new ideas, then make it fit
All the bad for this journey, you won’t be needing it
And for the ones that need help, I hope you enjoying reading this

    RJ- Thanks for sharing this! Your lines “Just never give up, be strong and hold on” and “You don’t have room for new ideas, then make it fit” really stuck with me. If there is one thing that I have found to be true, it is definitely that “Think you in the struggle by yourself, but you’re not alone” I did enjoy reading this and hope to read more soon 🙂
