The Stuggle to Me


In a world so crude and judgmental

I want the world to see

A person with so much potential

A person that happens to be me

 

With all of the struggles I've been through

I've learned to find a way

To except the flaws Gods given me

And to start over with a new day

 

The scars, the hate, the pressure

That had taken all my time

 

To see the world outside my door

And know i'll be just fine

 

My life is just beginning

There's a new light lit in me

 

That's there for me to notice

And for the whole wide world to see

 

The struggle of self-acceptance is real

And its not just happened to me

 

But with the help of my light inside

It has made me flawless for the world to see
