Issues


Confused, frustrated, looking for solutions

Too much stress to handle, it’s becoming abusive

To my mind, my body, I need a conclusion

Relying on faith and motivation, hope I didn’t overuse it

Because time is fading rapidly, I’m trying not to lose it

When your best isn’t good enough, what do you do?

 When love isn’t strong enough, does the heart turn cold too?

Every day I wake up fighting for survival

Haters want to see me down, trying to deprive me

Of my success, but unlike the rest

When put to the test,

I always race to the top

The sky is the limit; I’m too determined to stop

Wanting help but unsure how to receive it

Somehow I know I will succeed, as long as I believe it
