I'm the only one
How do I keep these tears from falling,
discouraging words constantly filling up my still molding brain.
I asked the Lord to please make me a bird so I can fly far far away from whats causing me pain.
I move at my own pace, why can't they see that,
Cause im not in the same mind set as them they choose to get mad.
Why must I deserve to be given much hurt,
Why must my dreams be pushed in the dirt.
Because I don't strive for success in the same manner as you do,
tell me how does that give you the right to treat like some fool.
i ain't stupid, I know whats going on,
but just cause we can both read the lyrics, don't mean we both can sing the song.
I understand the steps I shoould take to reach my destiny,
but who says your plan is whats best for me.
I tried to not to get mad,cry, and go insane,
but else can I do when I'm dealing with people who barely think of my name.
i believe in myself, I don't need any help, I know I can do this,
cause at the end of the day I'm the only one actually going through this.
