you slay
It saddens me to see
He’s in pain
The world is not to blame
But I cant help it
I look at it with shame
He has a mind no one can tame
With a heart full of light
Still, the world beat him down
Like his life is an evil game
He hides behind a smile
So No one sees his tears
This has been going on for years
No one notices, no one sees
He tries to face his fears
Covers it with jokes
Making people smile from their ears
Keeping up the fake front
As all his hope disappears.
words can’t explain
What I’m trying to say
The world is not grey
I may not believe in god
But for you, I will pray
Your value can’t be measured
It’s not something you can weigh
I hope you understand
You’re wonderful, you slay
