'I CAN HELP GUIDE YOUNGSTERS'

I want to educate children about mental health

Offer tips and advice to look after themselves

Depression can hit you at any age

If you let it take control you, you must break free from the cage

Learning quite early can help save your life

I can share with you my strategies on how to survive

Mental health should be a priority to be taught in all schools

Silence the haters and the ignorant fools

I know I can help guide youngsters, take them under my wing

To fight back every day, to the table I bring

Firstly, depression can make you confused

It's relentless and will hurt you with mental abuse

Do not throw in the towel, fellow warrior do not quit

It is time to show the world that you are mentally fit

I have a blueprint for survival, I can show you how to win

The first step is the hardest, it is now time to begin

The catalyst behind success is possessing self belief

When you enter the mental battlefield, combat offers you relief

When it comes to mental health, i can offer education

As well as wisdom, strength, positivity and also motivation

I wish I had someone like me when I was the same age as you

They could have prevented my depression from ever getting through

My friends i know exactly what it takes to succeed

If you're struggling right now, I can help set your mind free
