I felt my Granddad's death like a lesson in love and loss Numb and shocked, for everything thing I'd sundered from A smouldered home crumbled to ash The hum of thunder cats, drowned out a hundred spats I wore middle school like a baggy uniform Unflattering unsuitable... Casually unusual In upper school debunked the rules Trying to discover cool but acting like an utter fool Reached for higher learning with peers at my back With fears that attached to jeers that attack I bloomed into my late teens, sprouting possibilities Complicated feelings freed chopping out the kid in me I logged on to a digital age A signal for change in the biggest of ways I eulogise my past never far from its funeral Fascinated from beyond, the view is truly beautiful These were my stepping stones, a reflection froze These were my stepping stone and you never know These were my stepping stones, a reflection froze These were my stepping stones, and you, never know First love was metamorphosis, empowered by desire Deflowered by that fire just another clown for hire I wore '03 like an anchor and a pendant Sang for her attention with anger and resentment I saw my Uni days through a truant haze Of booze and stains on memories I blew away 20 something smelt like the bottom of bottle mixed With simulated confidence, expelled by the vomit spit I travelled with a liberty, woven in my essence Never severed home, made it glow luminescent The story arc of '09, a romantic comedy My co-star offered me, happiness monogamy Symbolised commitment, wrapped her in a ring Ecstatic for the win, happy in the spin I eulogise my past never far from its funeral Fascinated from beyond, the view is truly beautiful These were my stepping stones, a reflection froze These were my stepping stone and you never know These were my stepping stones, a reflection froze These were my stepping stones, and you, never know I've Treated my career like a means to an end It's hard to be a successful with these demons in your head Felt the weight of my promotions, a suffocating crush Juddered by the thrust, comfort is a must I wore thirty like a crown of fabricated regal Seated on a throne of that inflated ego Mental diagnosis offered deeper understanding Of the cards that I'd been handed that feature in my sadness Fatherhood toppled my priorities No deity but believe me that was godspeed Covid19 felt like the end of times Attitude... never mind, plenty of reflection time Now as 40 looms I've learned to let it go Although lesson never slow, I'm better for their blows I eulogise my past never far from its funeral Fascinated from beyond the view is truly beautiful These were my stepping stones, a reflection froze These were my stepping stone and you never know These were my stepping stones, a reflection froze These were my stepping stones, and you, never know
