Discern with MeI’m Tired, I’m whipped

I’m tired
I’m whipped
too dumb to quit
too smart
to let life go by

I’m working hard
to find truth
in my own backyard
I’ve done everything
but die

Took the long way around
on a short ride to town
found a pass
where few have been

Gained a love
lost a friend
scraped my knee
learned to please

started out
with no choice

somewhere

somehow

found my
voice
