It's using the post / instead of sending an email / or loving to sleep / instead of loving a female Don't mistake it for lazy / I want to be active / it's harder in life than / it seems to be in practice It takes your energy / and it uses it as shots / to shoot your motivation / believe me it's hard It's waking up early / to go back to sleep / so you can work up the nerve / to get up onto your feet Imagine you slept for / an hour every day of / the week all you'd want / to be doing is sleep You'd be emotionally / unstable and very / unsociable / with stress feeling uncontrolable You're number one struggle/ would be the simplest of tasks/ what you do in a day / would be cut right in half You want to be able  / to do that witch you should / at work or at school / or where ever you stood But all you could think about / would be ending the pain / wishing someone understood / what flowed through your veins You can't control your lack of love / or low energy / all you want is nothing to do / for all of today When just waking up is giving / your very best n' / nobody understands / that's clinical depression

This is my best attempt at explaining my depression. Yes, it's a rap. Rhythem and poetry - rap. I love music, and honestly this is how i prefer to write. If you want me to post more like this or want me to record it and put it on sound cloud just dm me or comment and say your opinion. There are no wrong opinions lol.
