Silence The Noise
Silence the noise means to trim the fat
Trimming the fat is the extra, this, this and that
The extra is the desire to vent
Venting feels like time well spent
But it requires bending someone’s ear
Usually, this is the person who is most near
Whether they want to hear you or not
Doesn’t matter to you, you are just hot
Hot, sick and tired and mad
Just sitting back wishing you had
Had only spoken your mind
Now you wonder, how you got yourself in this bind
The bind of not knowing what to do
The noise, the noise it’s too much ado
The noise that only you can hear
Playing over and over and is causing you to fear
Fear the thing called negative self-talk
Stop playing this negative self-talk and walk the walk
Walk the walk of the powerful person you are
It’s only you who can set the bar
How low or how high is up to you
Silence the noise, silence the noise
Remember; it’s up to you
