Feel like I've faced obstacles head on, eyes up and forward,
Raised voices don't phase me, my voice sharp as a sword.
Blotting out the naysayers, not giving any of my energy,
Be careful what you wish for, harmful intent can be deadly.

He blesses those that bless you, and curses those who curses you.
No problem.
Indeed.
My friend, I deeply relate to this too. Sometimes when you live openly, intensely, or differently, people project all kinds of things onto you…and eventually you either shrink yourself or learn how to keep moving forward despite the noise. This feels like choosing forward motion, a place we both find ourselves. There’s pain underneath it, but also resolve. Powerful piece. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
I'm glad it is relatable pal.
