Through Heartache

Trying to keep my emotions in check
Not letting the world frustrate me
So I have more time to reflect

Every time I take another pill
I think about this journey
How I'm traveling uphill

Let so many things hold me back
Scared of having an anxiety attack

Been through heartache and pain
Somehow been able to sustain

This world will not hold me back
I have to watch the way I react 
Have a plan of attack

That feeling of feeling defeated
Feeling mistreated 
That's no longer me

This is my battle plan
Took me awhile to understand
Who I really am
