I Am Unbreakable

Breaking down with every step I take
The world is shaking beneath my feet.
The Pressure is rising
And I am fighting with everything inside of me,
To hold my breath and fight these tears.
I won’t let you break me!
No, Not this time!
I haven’t felt this bad in so long,
It’s like hearing new lyrics to an old song
It sounds so different, so wrong.
You are the weight sitting on my shoulders
Threatening to break my back.
But I won’t fall victim to this!
My heart is strong!
And my mind is not weak!
And the world is still shaking beneath my feet.
I haven’t stood on solid ground since the day I was born,
But that still doesn’t make you better than me!
I will stand tall, I will not fall.
I will stay true.
I am unbreakable!
