Kimberly Ruiz Poet Lyric

As Good As It Gets

Here I go again
Same story, different day
Now I feel the rain
Washing my dreams away
This uphill battle has come to a hault
My legs go weak and I wilt under pressure
The enemy whispers it’s all my fault
Doubting myself, I find no pleasure

Tears streaming down my face
I see my reflection in the mirror
There’s a crushed spirit that lost the race
As the broken pieces of my dreams becomes clearer
The past rises up and shatters my confidence
Where is that girl who dreamed without hesitation?
Deep down I know fate doesn’t happen by coincidence
Desperately I search for the girl breathing ambition

Peering closer I can see the enemy
Its empty eyes well up with tears
As it points back right at me
I’m the one who’s been hiding all these years
Crying out to have something to live for
Praying to reverse time and erase these regrets
I need to believe there is something more
Or is this as good as it gets?
