Broken
I’m stressing,
Jumping through hoop to hoop all day
Just wishing God would let me catch a break.
All alone, wishing I had someone to call my own.
Breathing in and out feeling like I’m choking.
I really wish I was joking but honestly I’m just broken.
Trying to mask my feelings, all I want to do is start healing.
Another child dead, another mother grieving, that’s all I’m hearing.
This world we live in is crazy,
I’m scared to have a baby.
Can’t wait til I’m living my best life somewhere extraordinary.
You might not expect it but I have a cold heart.
Everything from our past makes us who we are.
I can’t judge nobody, I’ve been through sh*t too.
And at the end of the day we’re all humans, boo.
I look at my little brother and see my younger self
If only I could protect him from this gruesome world.
Not knowing what’ll happen next, just praying for the best.
Taking it one step at a time , I lowkey feel like I’m losing my mind.
