Sometimes life's hard Sometimes it gets worse Once again defeat becomes The death of my purpose I've gotten past worse things in my course I can't let trauma Change my life for the worse Feeling sorry for myself does nothing at all Keep conscious of the fact That I could let it fall Gotta keep myself going Can't dwell on the bad Look at what I've got Instead of what I didn't have Instead of blaming everything else I can only look to myself I can't let the shit in life discourage me I gotta take control Of the things that are hurting me
