Sometimes life's hard sometimes it gets worse Once again defeat becomes the death of my purpose I've gotten past worse things in my course I can't let trauma change my life for the worse Feeling sorry for myself does nothing at all Keep conscious of the fact that I could let it fall Gotta keep myself going can't dwell on the bad Look at what I've got instead of what I didn't have instead of blaming everything else I can only look to myself I can't let the shit in life discourage me I gotta take control of the things that are hurting me
