There are times in life I can't understand
Nothing is right, nothing is going as planned
It seems everyone's trying to assist me
but to make my own decisions I am free
Expectations set high
I just have to hold on and try
To make ends meet
Myself up I must beat
Persistance, strength and perserverence
Along with positive thoughts without vengence
These are the things I should keep
And others with patience i must treat
