Reality
The tough times we in no one can relate to
Pops is in jail, mom was there, and brothers headed there to,
No one listens no one cares to what I have to say
No one sees through the fake smile that I wear everyday.
You are feeling the same as me I see it in your eyes
You’re tired and worn down from this life you live, you’re starting to ask why.
Why am I here and not somewhere else, why can’t I see the good in myself
Why am I not successful yet, and why am I not sure if I will ever be.
All I want is a spark of hope, that everything will turn out fine
But everyone’s too busy with their life, and no one cares about mine.
They only care to bring me down, they want to prove they are right,
But I got something of my own to prove, I won’t go down without a fight.
