Who Am I Now?

I've always watched from the sidelines
Inspecting people as they go by
I've always been trapped and confined
Forcing myself to watch people and time pass by

But something changed
I came out of my shell
Priorities rearranged
But still as unconfident as hell

So I changed that too
Now look who I am today
A confident, people-person, whoo
The person I was should have stayed that way

At least I was passing
Instead of dropping out
At least I knew who I was
None of this self doubt

The drugs and alcohol
They came with a price
Dropping out and losing it all
If you're reading this, take my advice

Learn from the fool
Writing this blog
Stay in school
And stay off the pot
