I face the crowd alone and empty
Then they start the pace
For my own race
The one I cannot finish
I feel the weight of the sun
And then I feel the urge to run
Because it’s “Fun”, not this time
This time the rhyme time isn’t fun

I wrote this when i was feeling down and at the age i am at there is a time when you feel your not worth it and your just there and you are letting other people run your life.
