I remember the days of just wanting to play
Not wanting to sleep and wishing to stay
Up so late the day never went away
I was just a kid who didn't get pay

Money clothes and style I had none of those
Verbal communication overnight rose
Misunderstood by the day as it goes
My speech impaired by the no's

Respect what a dream that was
Friends and best friends is what one does
I had some on that day that was
Before I was left alone because one does

Like an effort I was lost
Like a dam at what cost
I was filling up and tossed
Back to a smile glossed

To nothing I move on
To nothing I hold on
To no one I could call on
To no one I could lean on

Just my childhood before middle school
Before I could realize I'd become another fool
I would end up repeating being the tool
Wanting to be liked to be cool

Taken years to finally awake
To realize most ******* people make
The pain they cause and partake
That most are just fake

I would go on and on
If I say to much they will come on
Those emotions I hate on
Will soon be gone

Don't Worry I Stay Strong
