Exposing the Ingrained

I faked it so many of times
it helped me to get it made
but to constantly try controlling tides
wears me out and makes the core of the matter fade

It's a tough code to crack
exposing the ingrained
the truth wanting to come back
intrinsic values acclaimed

So I'm trying again to revisit the places
where I last flowed with love
to no longer analyse life's races
to be the girl again my dad wrote songs of

to be anew that little kid with the eternal smile
that lightened up her grandmother's day
that loved and cared for others in unseen style
that encountered love, made it feel welcome and invited it to stay.
