Debt
Debt
I was waiting... waiting to live freely
until I was cleared of all the debt on me -
the debt that was, the debt that is,
And also the debt that seems will always be...
The first of them was a debt of the past
The debt of what it took to make me, me
Is it even possible to pay it back?
Will I ever become debt-free?
I then worried about debt in the future
The debt that I owe to the ones from me
Is there an end to what I can give?
Can I ever live guiltlessly?
In this, I forgot the debt of the present
The debt that I owe to no one but me
I know this debt is often overlooked
If I don't pay myself, who would even ask me?
But what if to repay the past and future,
All I needed to do was to pay for the present.
The best version of me would be an ode to the past
And, to build the future it would enable me
The debt of the present I decided to pay
With that, I saw all the past debts flee
And I became richer to give to the future
Thus I paid all my debts by just being the best of me
