Everyday


Everyday goes by without delay

Accompanied by my sister while we wait for the bus

After school I come out late in a rush

She gets frustrated but I thought she exaggerates too much

I leave class without a cause

Trying to distract myself from all my flaws

Got too much time on my hands to care

Couldn't bare the fact that I actually had to

I wouln't dare to think back

 

Everday goes by too fast

Couldn't think about the last time I relaxed

I look to my right to see my sister graduate

I'm left to my own fate

Pressure is put on my shoulders

I didn't want to grow older

Stress and pressure came to me like waves

That was a sign I had to behave

 

Everday goes by accurately

I keep in mind the time

The thought of being tardy send shivers down my spine

I stay in class so  my mom wouldn't beat my ass

I hear every word so I could be heard

Everyday is a day to start anew

If only I knew it before it became true
