Bitterness hugs my heart, jealousy tugs at me, constantly working hard but no big breaks for me. Giving it my all to no avail, how come? How do bad girls with good hair surpass me when all I'm doing is what's right? I'm trying so hard to break free but despair keeps welling up inside me, giving up would be so easy but even that is not an option for me. Why do others get dealt the winning hand from birth? Is struggle suppose to be synonymous to me? Hard work is not all its cracked out to be, unfortunately that's my reality.

Life isn't fair
Bitterness hugs my heart, jealousy tugs at me, constantly working hard but no big breaks for me. Giving it my all to no avail, how come? How do bad girls with good hair surpass me when all I'm doing is what's right? I'm trying so hard to break free but despair keeps welling up inside me, giving up would be so easy but even that is not an option for me. Why do others get dealt the winning hand from birth? Is struggle suppose to be synonymous to me? Hard work is not all its cracked out to be, unfortunately that's my reality.
