It Gets Better
I want to go home and sink into my bed
I want to get all these bad thoughts out of my head
Turns out negativity is what took over and led
Led me to finding out I’m only just a shred
Time passes and I stay still
Gazing around and see people move with will
Standing i realize I can’t stop and chill
I’m supposed to be moving, experiencing the thrill
Not accepted, not enough
No one seems to call my bluff
They see me quiet, they think I’m tough
But no one knows, all the stuff
Waking up is hard to do,
Especially after all I’ve been through
Surely you know that feeling too,
That feeling where you just hate your view
I’ve been told things get better,
Now I’ve bottled my feelings in a letter
I know I’ve never been a go getter
But I’m done hiding in this sweater
Good will come,
I hear the beat of the drum
Time is ticking I can’t be dumb
I will get out of this slum
