I'M No One
I got no one by my side
I'm just leaning on the tree
Not on anyone's shoulder
When will this be overcame
I got no strength to fight
Nothing I do is ever right
I was shattered, I became a beggar
I was dying inside but a bit stalwart outside
I found myself just like that, with my body swaying
Roaming around the streets of only God knew
Like a headless chicken
I just found myself just like that
Roaming around the streets
Like a headless chicken
Lost with no direction
Crying for help that no one wasn't adamant to do
Being helpless and powerless
With an empty stomach
People gazing at me and just watch
My frowny face
With their eyes only seeing a passerby
Who abandoned her own family seeking for their fortune material
Little did they assume
Not knowing accurate impaction of my laminations
That I even gave up kneeling and praying for change
I made peace with the fact that it's not worth fighting for
This sufferings is aimed for a worthwhile
Having the fighting spirit is purely futile
