Stay Afloat

  Built up a dream, that was worth my suffering.

 They told me to give up, to not try anymore.

 Now, look where I am now.

 Walking on water while they're sinking into the abyss of the deepest part of the ocean. 

Work to stay afloat, sink when you finally give up.

 But you shouldn't sink, you should still be at the surface of the ocean.

 You may just have your nose up, trying to give your lungs air, but you're still floating, you're not sinking just yet.

 Don't give in,

 and sink,

 break free,

and float above all the challenges of life that make you sink.
