Back To Myself
When it comes to Depression it's hard to explain the impact I felt
I've always been too prideful to admit I was weak and ask for help
I'm going to try and foucs on my strengths and not what I lack in myself
It's been a difficult couple of months, but I'm going to get back to myself
I hid away from my friends for so long and was scared to speak my mind
I've overcome much worse, but I've been weak for time
I was ready to end it all and on the verge of quitting
I've struggled for a while, but this kind of hurt was different
I Haven't been dealing with life too well, I was close to taking my own
I was stuck in the storm, but Now I plan to make my home
Find happiness through the ugliness
And find beauty in myself even if my scars are the bloodiest
I gave my all to someone who stabbed me in the back and the wound grew bigger every day
Sometimes someone can look so beautiful, you don't see that they're looking at you in a deadly way
Even though her turning out to be fake has broke my heart and left me sad
I know I'll overcome it, as I made it 26 Years without a Dad
I've shed so many tears, but instead of drowning in the river, I'll swim to the smile at the end
It'll be a fake smile for a while, but I'll wear the proudest smile once this pain mends
I'm going to focus on my strengths and no longer look at what I lack in myself
I've been down and out for a while, but now I'm working to get back to myself
