Turmoil
God, please help me
I must do better
I can't see through the rain
In this stormy weather
I wake up each morning
With a smile on my face
Hiding the shame I feel
That my life is a waste
I hold back the tears
So no one can see
The pressure is so great
All eyes are on me
The weight of a mountain
Is on my shoulders
A landslide of rocks
Boulder after boulder
I must keep going
Too much is at stake
I must be perfect
No room for mistakes
So, God, please help me
To do my very best
And if it gets too much for me
Give me a moment to rest
