about
I wasn't in the best place when I wrote this song. After dealing with bullying and constant abuse, I turned to music and it saved my life. Writing this song was therapeutic. It helped me release anger, disappointment and start the healing process.
I hope it inspires and helps you with whatever you're going through!
Why is all this pressure on me? What have I done to this world? Why doesn't anybody see what I'm worth?
See who I am inside, look at who I am right now. Is this what I need to be like to protect my life and rights?
I don't wanna do this no more. I can't live in fear it's impossible. I don't wanna wake up every morning asking myself why am I here. I don't wanna cry anymore. I don't see why they just ignore my feelings, needs, talents, gifts and all the important things. See, I can't live like this.
They expect me just to walk in with a big smile on my face but I'm so sick and tired of this all,of their silly games. They can't hurt me, destroy the person who I really am. They can try but I'll stop them. I know I will.
I don't wanna do this no more. I can't live in fear it's impossible. I don't wanna wake up every morning asking myself why am I here. I don't wanna cry anymore. I don't see why they just ignore my feelings, needs, talents, gifts and all the important things. See, I can't live like this.
Just think about. Can you feel what I feel right now? All these thoughts running through my mind and it's crazy but it's true.
Every time I think about it, I know it hurts but I know I'm strong enough to move on. Don't judge me, don't take advantage of me, leave me, let me breathe. I'm so sick of you imposing negativity on me.
