Speak Up

When your heart feels as empty as your wallet Depression, obsession whatever you wanna call it… When you lose it and all you wanna do is… Sip some booze and go cruisin’… But you can’t go far without a car. Can’t go to the bar because you lost your card. When everything around you feels so hard. When you lose yourself you’re less than par. The future seems so far like a blinking star. Listen: all we need to do is live for now… Try to by proud, ignore the rain clouds. Ignore the hate when it’s turned up loud, Just block it out then there is no doubt. When you’re tired stand up And work it out. Push the crowds be a crowd pleaser, No-one cares if you’re a loud sneezer. Can’t fit your shoes no matter the size… Of the sneaker. Remember: You have your own voice So use that speaker….
