they tell you that life has been predetermined, that your story has been written already.
then what if everything i'm doing is useless, and i'm being mocked by many.
what if i'm working extremely hard and making promises but i'm fated with a bad ending
what if i plan all these things and begin fulfilling them one by one but i'm just pretending

we don't know how our story will end, but if it was decided that you would end up in the hospital, why try?
why spare the time and mislead people with the thoughts that you could do amazing things and still watch your mother cry?
if it was written in your story to end up with a bad fate.
there's realistically nothing you can do that will change it, it's a bit too late.

so if i do something good or bad,it doesn't matter, i'm *******
if it was supposed to be, it would be, because my future has been brewed.
if i don't do something bad, it doesn't make me a hero
in the end, i still end up with an ill-fated ending, staring out of this soulless window.

honestly, we really do not know. we'll only find out when our time has come.
until our chest settles down completely and our heart stops playing the drum.
and we'll find out then and there, with everybody else.
until you found out that everything you did was meaningful or meaningless, after your final farewell.
