Refuse
Always trying to prove myself
Always saying I got it figured out
Skin deep maybe I do
Though I make mistakes, bad choices so do you
School, chores, home life
It seems I am not dealing with to much strife
But peel back the layers like an onion they say
And you see a girl full of joy, anger, and dismay
A girl that is trying to figure it all out
A girl that is trying not to have self-doubt
A girl that has been broken time and time again
But hasn’t given up, she doesn’t know why she can’t explain
Maybe she's strong, maybe she’s resilient that’s what some would say
Or maybe she just isn’t a girl that catches breaks
But a girl that just doesn’t break
Together she holds herself
She doesn’t know any other way
She knows she has to keep going at least till she gets midway
She just has to prove herself
Not to anyone else
But I have to prove I can keep going to myself
