Deep within the comfort, deep within the ease
Lies a tangling with a past he’s trying to unleash
Amongst a repertoire of dealings in life’s intricacies
Is a love unrecovered, he recalls and reminisces
A family once strong and jointed
Is torn and tattered like pieces of a jigsaw
Laced with airs of grace and poise is a façade
It crumbles under life’s uncertainties and toils
Faced with a coming of age and disappointment
There is a conflict, a battle with his allocated providence
A world of riches is sought, the ultimate pursuit
He will not tolerate any form of rebuke
There is a furious surge to beat the clock
A mending of what could be lost is stirring
Dealings are made to fulfil the golden dream
Hustling, pushing to satisfy the intensity
Distant memories leave him confused and unsure
An independent nature threatened, he wants to give more
But deep within the comfort, deep within the ease
Lies merely a man; just a boy
