My Struggle for Happiness

The search for happiness
All depends on what you want
Everyone thinks they want gold
I just want peace of the heart
Where I can be contempt
With all the things that I've done
But I can't
My closet is too dark

Nights filled with no sleeping
Just my demons speaking
Don't go to Church
Because I know what the pastor is preaching
I know I'm supposed to be on the path of Righteousness
But now a days
It looks I'm on the path of uncertainty and unlikely-ness

This world I live in
This place I fight in
To stay alive I go against all these shooters
And people knifing
This is why I got demons
Because I fought
When there was no need for fighting

This is what I search for
When I look for my happiness
Young love
Universal peace
And no signs of lifeless-ness
Just everyone loving each other
No signs of violence

So I forgot the gold
I forgot the jewelry
And the money and fame
Because none of those things could make me happy
None of those things can wash away the pain
