To stand alone is difficult
To battle alone is almost impossible
I’ve been called strong, but it’s hard to be strong alone
I’m tired of keeping my head up high by myself
The amount of times I’ve pleaded to my fathers grave to help me be strong
I know I may be more privileged than others but no one should have to stand alone
No one stands by my side
No one backs me up
I have no one
And yet here I stand alone; trying to make it through today, then tomorrow, and the next
Trying to what’s right
Trying to not seek for approval
Trying to pursue my dreams
But yet I feel as if I’m on an island, team of one
Even though I have people behind me
Ever since last year I never reach out
And so I continue to be a team of one.
