Untitled

Waking up every morning with this great fear and burden on my heart Waking up every morning wanting to tear my heart apart Speaking to the enemy at church and on the phone I get this feeling of dread while I'm at home At one point in my life I was wishing I could just escape from this treacherous world Wishing and hoping that my world would stop twirling At one point in my life it was changing dramatically I felt like no one could see me I wasn't always the center of attention But my life was racing so fast, I was about to have a head-on-collision Scared of my past, I let my past define Scared of my present, I let other people define me Crying black tears that no one could see Crying black tears that came from the depths within me As the tears fell down from my cheek, thoughts of suicide started to slip in Not knowing what to do I started to give in With the people around me caring for me deeply They didn't let me give in and now I'm starting to see me Life changing as it may seem this is everything that 's happened to me Life changing as it may seem I didn't let these things get the best of me
