That Moment

Have you ever had that moment in your life?

 Feelin like you can’t even put up a fight

 In a blink of an eye,

 The world is crumbling down

 Feel like you’re alone & can’t make a sound

 Surrounded by stress & surrounded by fear

 Wondering why things have to be so unclear

 Got all these thoughts going through your head

 Sometimes you find yourself saying you’d be better off dead

The seconds are getting longer

And your heart feels so weak

You wanna try and talk about it

 But you feel as if you can’t speak

Your heartbeat gets faster

And your body starts to shake

 You honestly don’t know how much more that you can take

 Your mouth is starting to move

 And the words are flowing out

 It’s time to let everyone know what your life is all about

 Tell them about your good times,

 And tell them about your bad

 Because we know that everyone

 Has had a point where they’ve been sad

 It’s time to put your head up and move on

 Always wanted to be a role model for someone

 So get up and be one

 There is always time for transformation  

  all you need is your education

Ignore all the fake people

 And ignore all the lies

 put it all behind you and look them in the eyes

 Let them know they made your stronger

 And let them know your still here

 Make their body start to tremble with fear

 Keep your friends close,

 But your enemies closer

 Get a picture of them blown up, into a life-sized poster

 Crumble that picture and tear it apart

 Get your life on track and get ready to restart
