My anxiousness keeps increasing ,
as i am not the strong fool,
my heart is quite aching,
and i am pretending to be cool,
But to achieve my dreams,
my mind is shivering and shaking ,
beneath afraid my heart is ,
for the failures that i may face,
callosity my soul and frightened to ace,
I am actually trembling on the stool of stakes,
and it's hard for me to quit ,
for i have to break the poverty shades,
for i have to buy a house for my mom ,
and thank her for being a mom great.
It's hard for me to quit,
and hard for me to stay ,
but i am still working ,
and fighting the demons in my head.
