The pain could have gone but you built a fence,
Set it too high and made it tense,
Life is so hard that you live in pretense
Under a mask that makes no sense.
I'm not your guru and I've not lived long,
It's fact that in this life you're either weak or strong,
Don't bend to society and don't just dance along-
To the label that they gave you when you grew up all year long.
You're two steps closer but you're two steps back,
Take hold of your goals and leave the world to clack,
You'll meet all of the setbacks but keep yourself on track,
For no rich man made a dime by crying in his shack.
The pain could have gone but you built a fence,
Set it too high and made it tense,
You can take on the world when you decide to commence
But never forget that everything comes with its cadence.
