Gimme a Break!
from the mind of TiKi, August 29, 2006

I need a change.
From everything* in my life.

I’m so sick of coming “home” to that damn house on Atkins.
To the arguments, and smart comments, and the locked doors.
I’m sick of the distance between me and my brother.
I’m sick of the tensions between me and my sister.
I’m sick of waking up feeling sad.
I’m sick of paying a cab daily to get to work.
I’m sick of work…

Scratch that.

I’m sick of this job.
I love this job, but I hate it.
All I want… ALL I NEED is one real shot.
One real opportunity.
I just need the chance and I know I will do better than hit
the ground running.
I will own that damn ground.

But almost no one is willing…

Grant me that one shot Jah, and bless me on that day.

Til then…

I’m stuck.

Stuck with that damn house on Atkins…
Stuck with the arguments, smart comments and locked doors…
Stuck with the distance between me and my brother…
Stuck with the tensions between me and my sister…
Stuck with waking up feeling sad…
Stuck with paying a cab daily to get to work…
Stuck with this job…

Damn.

* – Everything excludes my man of course… can’t do without him AT ALL.
