I realized that when I woke up
That I'd still be me
No changes were made at all
So I prayed on bended knee

It's all that I could do
To not get in the way
My spirit at an all time low
Living day by day

I struggle just to make my bed
To leave the house and venture out
This isn't who I am
Or what I'm all about

An infamous self destructor
Of a life without
Sluggish with no money
Riddled in self doubt

It's time to make some changes
Wash away my drought
Look into the mirror
Raise my voice and shout

Have a greater purpose
Destined to achieve
Light a fire under my ***
Make myself believe

I'm special and unique
By all accounts a freak
Hideous on the inside
When all seems lost and bleak

Take a stand and be a man
Fight, but be discreet
I'll cross the finish line in time
Even if I have to cheat
