Trying My Best

Some days are really hard and they put me to the test
It takes everything in me to get up and get dressed
Instead of living life I just drag through the day
My body is present but my mind slips away
Everywhere I go I feel like an unwanted guest 
I let my mind forget that I am truly blessed
I feel as if my life is in complete disarray 
All I know to do is to go isolate and pray
My mind is always wondering it never gets to rest
I'll take it day by day and I'll keep on trying my best
