Days that I feel like I'm nothing,
Want to be something
No one can feel the vibration of my voice from my head to my toes;
Like I do
Secrets in my head
Pain in my legs
You cant hear me
Maybe because you never take the chance to try and look at me
There's something I need
I need to be Understood
If you could
Please Try
try to get what I'm saying
try and get why I'm crying
try and get why I feel like I'm dying
Every time you hit me
Cant you see
I feel more and more Morose
Like I am the Base of this family
I Yield
I'm done
Its done
You say I'm unkempt
I say I'm clean
You say I'm a disappointment
And again I say but you don't seem to hear, I'm a Achiever
Cause 1
All of the things you say to me could have knocked me down
Cause 2
All of the things that you have hit me with could have gotten me not to stay around
3
All of the times you say I'm a Disappointment and no use to you
4
All the times that I still think its True.
And yet I'm still here
Trying to survive.

This is really great. Your writing speaks they're not just black and white words on a screen they give you a picture
