The Downtrodden

THE DOWNTRODDEN 

There are things I wanna say
But words would fail me
Some pains I can't explain
I just have to bear it alone
I chose to man up
Bcos it doesn't matter if I speak up
Deep emotions that can make body and soul breakup
If I dont make it to the touchline
Believe  me, I didn't just give up
I tried to link up
But life just  me up
It is painful, the wise dies like a fool
