Cracks In The Surface
In the mirror, I see a reflection
A person with doubts and imperfection
A voice inside whispers, "you're not enough"
And I try to be tough, but it's tough.
I put on a mask and pretend to be
Someone who's confident and carefree
But deep down inside, I'm filled with fear
Afraid that others will see my tears.
I strive to succeed in all that I do
To prove that I'm worthy and good enough too
But the pressure builds and I start to crack
Wondering if I'll ever get back on track.
