You always get pulled in
The surroundings attach to you
What happens all around you
Affects you in some way
What you keep your attention on
Grows with time
Grows until it’s big enough to blind you
Happens to you a lot
You can’t seem to go a day without it
Without it intervening in some way
Wouldn’t it be nice to beat it
To find a way around its pull
No matter what you have to be in it
Only solution is to find a bigger pull
There’s an answer for you there
You are the bigger pull
Attach to your ego
Let it grow uncontrollably
Rather lose it to that than this prison
The world has a way of wrapping itself around you. Every little noise, every passing mood, every piece of someone else’s chaos—somehow it finds its way in. And before you even notice, your thoughts aren’t yours anymore. You’re carrying the weight of everything around you. That pull is real, and it’s constant. It doesn’t ask permission. It just tugs.
But you don’t have to be a prisoner to it. The answer isn’t isolation—it’s gravity. You need something stronger pulling from within. Something louder than the noise. That’s where your ego steps in—not the watered-down version people warn you about, but the core identity that knows who you are and what you’re here to do. Let it anchor you. Let it grow large enough to outmatch the distractions.
If you’re going to get consumed by something, let it be your own vision. Let it be your drive. Let it be your obsession with becoming exactly who you see in your head. That pull will keep you from floating away into everyone else’s storm. It’s not selfish—it’s survival. You either get swallowed by the world around you, or you become a world of your own.
