Life

We wakeup
With our minds set
But end up doing something totally different

We try and try
But still nothing yet
It starts to hurt us more and more
When even the close ones fade away

Left alone with no help
Nothing else to say
The way we suppose to look at things
Just isnt the same

Nothing even feels real
I swear this is a shame
Yall dont know how we feel!

Once there was a smart child
With goals and dreams
But as life went on
The harder it started to seem

I wanted to cry
But i knew there was no more hope
I always tried to wonder why
My life was starting to end
But i been feeling like it really never begin...
