It's My Life Now Be Gone

I know I'm outnumbered
I know I'm not wrong 
it's lightning before thunder 
lies go speeding on 
the truth will take longer
when lies live strong 

I felt a pain I couldn't explain 
I could to begin with 
but each time added strain
each day I would live 
isolated but game 
but the energy sieved 
as I mentally drained 

I reached out for hands 
was slapped in the face 
my spirit was rammed 
my brain lost pace

I went to the people 
I thought would help me 
they showed me evil 
disrespect unhealthy 

still everyday my life became worse 
let down by those closest 
choosing to mock as I hurt 
so nobody noticed 
as I warred to keep work 

8 hours each day 
more soul wore away
then I'd see mates 
who tore more away 
I'd go home in the evening 
to parents non believing 
who always found reason
to give one mental beating 

all day each day the opposite of love 
unbelieved and unnoticed to shoulder shrugs  

to all who don't believe me
I hope you live this 
when your life is broken
and your story dismissed!

I HOPE YOU LIVE THIS 
and I hope they deem you mad as well 
when you're strangled choked and crossing through Hell
I hope you are treated like you story tale 
I hope you're the victim who never leaves Hell! 

I came back from this, go on walk my trail,
let's see how you fair when living my tale
