6. man of the year (bonus track)

ahem…
let me reintroduce myself…

surprise,
didn’t think
i’d make it out alive,
2025,
worst year of my life,
but i survived,
held it in
and swallowed my words
on all that went wrong,
i cried a lot of tears
this year
just to get here,
hid my face
from even those
that have seen it most,
sorry that i’ve been
gone from the world,
mine got destroyed
and i had to put it back,
and i’m still picking up
some pieces
and finding new ones,
waiting for the sickness
to quit overtaking me,
clear my ears
and get back to myself.

but i wanna believe
there’s better days ahead,
a little more time spent
with good friends,
maybe some new ones
if i give myself a chance,
like tyler said,
they thought i was dead,
but i’m stronger
than the one
who spent several months
hidden in bed,
only a few cents richer
but years wiser,
got into a few more fights
than i would’ve liked,
but all i needed
was to treat me
with kindness,
and slowly,
i’ve started to find myself.

still a work in progress,
but i’m starting
to find my peace,
we all need the space
to breathe,
and even though i bleed,
i always find a way
back to me,
there’s always a positive
somewhere in the madness,
and for all the hurt,
there’s always room to heal,
let’s hear it
for the man of the year,
too old
to star on nick,
but i’m young enough
for forbes,
back in my element,
i’m ready for the wins,
and every time i pop out
you know
it’s an event,
9 out of 9,
throw that shit up
for des,
wonder if he sees me
even though we never met,
i’ll carry on that energy
in every way i can,
the king on his throne
and my reign will never end.
