In a moment of reflection
reality hit me up side the head
Looking at myself I saw a stranger
I don't even know who I am
Constantly being a puppet on a string
passed around seeking approval
All the while never giving approval
to myself
Shit just got real
Slowly being killed by the pains
The pain of rejection
The pain of illness
The pain of loneliness
The pain of poverty
The pain of unacceptance
The pain of struggle
If I give in to the pains I'll be gone
Shit just got real
Lord knows I'm tired
My body is weak and my mind
is struggling to keep me moving
Negativity is trying to gain control
and the fight is slowly leaving me
Shit is getting real
Everything is weighing me down
I see the dreams and goals in
the distance
All I need is the strength to
keep going
The desire to give up and let
the dark abyss swallow me whole
is so strong and tempting
It would be so easy to give up
and give in
Shit just got real
