defiant!
i’m not afraid
but
fuck my fears!
i’m gonna live
create
write
sing
dance
get the demons out
any way i can
.
defiant!
doesn’t mean
but
fuck my fears!
i’m gonna keep tryin’
to be aware
to pay attention
to really care
to give my all
chase the demons away
with kindness
.
defiant!
doesn’t mean
i’m not afraid
fuck my fears!
i’m not alone
if i fall down
there’s a hand
reaching out
to help me up
beat the demons off
push ‘em away
.
.
defiant!
doesn’t mean
i’m not afraid
but
fuck my fears!
i’m still here
i’ve had enough
of giving in to my fears
sabotaging myself
gonna make a change
ignore the demons
turn my back
and walk away
into my future
defiant!

i recommend listening to the song while reading the poem as i was listening to it as i wrote. i don’t know much about Eminem’s work, but my muse led me to this song and i feel it fits in perfectly with the feeling of my poem and ~ maybe ~ relates to how a graffiti artist feels at times, i don’t know.
