To everybody strugglin’, this is your song. When you feel everything about you is so wrong. And everyone tells you to move on. So you try to pretend and play along. It’s a feeling you’re afraid you won’t escape from. Even more scared of what you might become. Working so hard to keep it stable, When there’s so much sitting on your table. The weight feels so much like you’re not able, Like you can’t overcome all the labels. But you’re showing up, And that’s alright. So keep showing up, It’ll be alright. It’s a long fight.
Now the real you goes into hiding Because there’s no one you can confide in. You’re barely speaking up on these issues Because all the say is “Oh my gosh, here’s a tissue.” I understand.
Then the morning comes, can’t get out of bed. Thinking of the day ahead, you’d rather be dead. You hold it together, feet on the ground Because you’re one bad moment from a breakdown. Reminisce back when you could really shine. But that’s the past tense, these are dark times. You still face the day Gotta show the world what you’re made of ‘Cause you know it’s too easy just to give up. And you’re showing up, And it’s alright. And you’re not alone In this long fight. Give it a strong fight.
