Mountain Valley Graduate Shares Poignant Rhymes
At a recent Mountain Valley Talent Show, one of our residents performed a rap that spoke volumes about his positive MVTC experience. We’ve shared those “rhymes” below for all to appreciate!
I got the exit of the misery
I found my way out
I kept getting hit
Now I dont even have to crouch
Yeah I’m standing tall
You can never put me down
Doesn’t matter what I’ve been through
Cause what’s the means of it being told
The past is the past
I’m ready for the future to unfold
Yeah I create lyrical destruction
But this is the start of a new life
And I just began the construction
I’ve seen pain I’ve seen hurt
And I’ve felt so alone
But now I’ve found warmth
After feeling so Cold
Used to wish i could take off
My life is the road
But we all are in system
You can’t support the wall with a missing brick of stone
Yeah I’ll make it I’ll go at it till this kid has grown
I’m taking on the world
One day this will be known
And when these domino haters crash
I’ll be up there on my own
Life is what you make it
That’s why I took my place on throne
And finally I am happy
Yeah I got this smile on my face
Everyone’s got a reason
No one is out of place
It’s not about how wealthy
Just do yourself and you’ll do fine
Even if you were dirty
Everybody has the right to shine
Used to have so many worries
Used to let my brain cook till it was fried
But I took my mind off the stove
And now I can let it ride
I’m ready for moving
I’m ready for the climb
I can get over this mountain
I can reach the other side
I can find that valley
I can feel what its like to be alive
More challenges ahead
But I finally dropped the gun
Towards the oasis
Talkers say I’m tripping so I packed my bags for the sun
But it don’t matter what they say
If you believe it you will be number one
Remember me forever
And I will never be done
