Depression Thought It Had Won

I've spent many nights crying I was feeling weaker than ever, I felt the fight dying Depression thought it had won But it didn't realise it had stepped into the ring with Mike Tyson Depression took me hostage during my teen days My nightmares came and scared my dreams away I felt helpless with no one to offer me a hand I missed out on a childhood, I went from a new born baby to a man I had a lot of weak moments, but overcoming them only reminded me how strong I am I used to think it mattered about how Long I'd stand Until I got knocked down, and found a way to get back up without help People leave all the time, so you have to be there for yourself Depression would mentally abuse me He took me to his friend anxiety and introduced me Now I was getting punched from both sides I had a cocky mindset that I wouldn't lose and then my hope arrived I was trying to find a way to be positive during all of the negativity I went through a stage of using girls to provide me some credibility I was self-harming in secret, it became my addiction I got so used to being hurt that I felt lost when the pain was missing I was close to the edge, I'm unsure if Depression was pushing me or if the wind was blowing But I found my inner strength right in that moment I threw a punch to let depression know that I was back in the bout I stood up to the monsters and had a passion that I'd been without I was expected to lose, but guess who's still here Going through all of this at a young age, means I no longer feel fear I won the fight, I'll spend no more nights crying Depression didn't know it stepped into the ring with the new Mike Tyson
