I know tomorrow is not promised but I hope it is
This life we are living is merely lucks and guesses
Heaven or hell, nobody knows what the address is
The journey, if you look at it is really scary
Not saying it cannot be roses and berries
We are slaves to this journey and the loads it carry
It is only right for you to be worried
When you find yourself powerless to a current situation
As time goes by, the load gets more heavy
At first the emotions, you try to bury
Hoping to find for yourself a sanctuary
You remember the saying “every condition is temporary”
But yours just continues to becomes more deadly
Your circle begins to turn smaller and messy
Happiness and peace starts to seem like a camp fire story
Your tolerance begins to drop and patience…
…you’re on the verge of having none
Your struggles have just began
Everything seems dark, you cannot even recognise the sun
Giving up seems to be the best option
You have screamed and cried and even tried using a gun
But inside, you know you cannot give the devil what he wants
Your thoughts and actions begin to get distorted
Sleep now for you is very limited
Everybody else around seems happy and to their life committed
Your pain ignored, it means nothing to them
You begin to wish for death to come
Your emotions begins to go numb
The weather for you comes with a heavy storm
But you are just one under the same weather
One with his own problems
One that is not flawless
One that is on a journey filled with rules but yet lawless
In time of sorrow do not only think of yourself
Think of everyone else
Use the energy of people around you but stay cautious
Do not let your emotions get the best of you and go thoughtless
Always be loyal to your fault and remain honest
You are but one tree inside a mighty forest
The journey is awful, the road is spooky from morning to night
To survive you need to understand LEFT and RIGHT
And one day EVERYTHING will be ALRIGHT
Welcome to the journey of life where it is DARK but you have to stand up to see LIGHT
