Helpless
I’m helpless.
So don’t try to tell me that
I can change the course of my life if i just try
Because from my experience
You can try your hardest
And it won’t change a thing
People will tell you how difficult life can be
It’s your job to fend for yourself
But they never offer any real help
People can give you advice
But what good is that anyway?
You can believe that you can’t do anything
And it will be true
You can tell yourself that you’re capable of anything,
But why feed yourself lies?
You can wake up each morning, and expect nothing to go your way
And I promise you’ll never be disappointed.
Go about with a positive outlook on life
Know that you have to work to make things better
And you’ll find that’s not how life works.
You can sit and wait for good things to come
But they never will
People try to convince me that there’s no good in life,
They succeeded
Once
I felt joy
I went about chasing my goals with hope and
One day, everything changed.
I was losing hope when
My life started spiraling out of control.
A long time ago
And it still is.
This is my motto
My decisions
Have no influence over
The bad things in life that come
So why bother trying?
Life is hopeless
You’ll never convince me that
Change is something you can control.
Now read it from bottom to top.
