FIGHTING DEMON

"FIGHTING DEMON." 

There's a demon inside me,
A dark and twisted soul,
That keeps me up at night,
And won't let me let go.

It tells me I'm not good enough,
That I'll never be great,
It tells me I'll never find joy,
And that my fate is sealed.

But I'll fight that demon,
With all that I have,
I'll fight for my happiness,
With all that I am.

It's not an easy battle,
It's a daily fight,
But I'll keep on struggling,
I'll keep up the fight.

I'll search for meaning,
And look for peace,
I'll find my happiness,
And finally be free.

The demon will fight me,
But I'll never give in,
I'll keep on battling,
Until the very end.

The victory will be sweet,
When I finally win,
And I'll look back at my life,
With a contented grin.
