This already failed once
It's wrong to think it will change
Break away from what's normal
It's usually bad accepted as the norm
Looking else where for peace
Drained by disappointment
The current location failed
From joy to drained by thought
Walking into a negative environment
Everything feels pointless lost purpose
Failed leaders pretend to be you friend
A lost cause stuck seeking an escape
Something is wrong feeling off
Trying to do what's right detached
Waste of time not bothering anymore

Feeling enraged not sure
How to express these emotions
A new outlet to escape frustration
Spoke the truth made out to be bad
Stood my ground hard to be around
Squared up time to move on
Dealing with a lost cause
Taking back control of live
Tired of waiting things on pause
Breaking away after being betrayed
Meant for better no reason to stay
Hard to trust the condescending
Wrote about it exhausted from looping thought

Leaving home to pursue a degree
Away from home missing family
Experiencing the world lots of changes
Freedom to learn and grow mentally
Emotionally struggling with transition
Hard to express love show emotions
Never grew up not being heard
Having a say published for speaking up
Trusting others is difficult
learned to be alone sent to the back
Older now doing things on the go
No one will do the work for you
One must do things by ones self

I use to look for pop and reaction
Most don't care once you speak
The truth doesn't fail so many lies spread
Doing the work minding this mouth staying out of the drama too many talking
Minding ones business able to be alone
Focused on the work progressively
Walked away from it after being denied
Wanted it moving on looking else where
No longer care to be around lazy
Overlooked disrespected by useless leads
Being the hardest worker isn't enough
Well rounded open to grow constantly learning
Dealt with conflict not playing games or bothering anymore
The lead steals credit does nothing while everyone contributes
Behind the scenes being a major key to productivity

Walking tall after being betrayed
Not giving up because you did
Getting strong after being seen as weak
All these assumptions made
Proving everyone wrong
All this doubt working harder than most
Not one to complain got it done
Broken trust keeping a distance
Tried to make it right made effort
Hard to do usually one to bail
such a waste of time
Dealing with a lost cause
Onto new forget the old
Awkward vibes tension in the air
Everyone knows the conflict
No one seems to care
No compromise not going to change
The talk changes nothing
It's already been spoken
Not one listened the first time around

Doing what's made mistakes
Hoping to fix the wrong
Moving forward being pulled back
Protecting the heart from hurt
Avoiding the pain caused by others
Trying to be heard usually ignored
Embraced the silent loneliness
Not forcing to be heard
Around the wrong people
Thankful for the right ones
Took a chance came up short
Focused on personal growth
Be better for the next time
Reflection on how to improve
No longer interested to prove
Tired not giving up take a break
Burnt out still going strong
Find balance another outlet

Live in the moment
Don't let them stop you
Tell you you're not good
Dictate your life shine bright
Chase your dreams stay motivated
Accomplish greatness be yourself
Live life to the fullest pursue goals
Since they settled for less
Ruin your day meant to stand out
Hold you back take pride in work
