Rooted Shaq Mendes Women are Queens, Men are Kings well -Along w/ the throne, you needah';_ Have that Crown _Take a journey down a path where,the end'll have you feeling like Gold;Gold - ha_ha I know being rich is the goal,this type of Rich, is gonna come from your Soul;So... the Gold _ won't be shinny, nor rectangular shaped,It's gonna weigh the same as you nothing more;There's a Pulse...Take your hand place on your chest,do yah feel that?Close your eyes, take a breath,ha_ha , still not there yet;Breathe as if you're a vehicle - approaching,them yellow flashing lights;A little bit slower...In through the nose,from gut to chest it rose;Out the mouth it goes, a breath so - Powerful... Meditation - Breath control,Anger, Hurt, & Pain _ The body'll let go,it's on you _ to stay in the zone;Clear the mind - the thoughts,should stop, as if time froze;Go on - give it a try -let your body take a ride,on this road - Personal Growth...
