I must keep fighting
Another year of trying
To keep up
I must keep fighting
I am drowning
Trying to get some air
I must keep fighting
To prove them wrong
To get some hope
My demons
Are taking over my body
My mind
Is traveling
Questioning my existence
What am I
What is my purpose
On this world
All my questions
Will be answered
Only when I die
I must keep fighting
To see
How far I can go
If I am strong enough
To cope
With all my insecurities
Good people suffering
I should be frank
People living in a lie
Controlled like puppets
With no opinions
Mindless
Taking everything for granted
And losing it in the end
Brains are sick
People are tired
Fed up with our generation
Heads down
Listening to everything they say
Minding our own businesses
Covering our eyes
Empty words spoken
Meaningless
Unspoken words
Taken by the time
Forgotten
Unknown feelings
Heartless beatings
Dreams falling apart
Faceless people
Emotionless
Ideas never expressed
By people
Wanting freedom
Losing control
Losing minds
Learning and forgetting
Pressure on the children
To decide what to do
For a future
That's not sure
How am I supposed to know
When I'm not sure
What to live
And what to die for
