What I See
Somedays I can be happy,
Somedays I want to be alone,
Some nights I sleep straight through my alarm
Some nights I cry until the darkness is gone
Sometimes I think I am the only one
Sometimes I see that there's a thousand people just like me
One Day, I'll be free
One Day, I'll be me
One day, I won't be trapped by the expectations of family
One Day, I'll be left in peace
I see myself, a couple years from now.
Struggling and accomplishing my goals.
I see myself a couple days from now,
Caring and watching out for my siblings
I see myself tonight,
hiding and crying for the little girl I used to be
I see myself right now, watchin you read,
wondering what you think.
I saw myself yesterday, doing exactly what they say,
just waiting to break away and be free.
