Analysis of Fresh Start

Lyrical Misfit 1982 (Denver)



In this new chapter of my life
I find myself feeling lost & confused
& mentally bruised
But my lyrical tools are always in use
I cruise in the moonlight
In search of love and might
Despite the fright & lack of light
I'm on a path of pure delight
At least I hope I'm right
& I could take flight with my broken wings
It seems I have more nightmares
Then dreams my silent screams
Flow like calm streams
My power can devour & consume anything
As long as I believe in me.
