It's a fight for freedom,
A fight for a better life.
It's a chance to expand my kingdom,
A chance to rekindle my drive.
It's a fight for acceptance,
for that person in my head,
to finally acknowledge my competence.
It's a fight for success,
a fight I might have to lose a couple of times.
It's a fight to conquer my distress,
And finally feel joy more than just...
Sometimes.

It's a fight for freedom.
It's not easy.
The motivation sometimes fades
as soon as it is attained.
The fight's not easy.
Sometimes the person in my mind
that always reminds me of my flaws,
Is too powerful to defeat.
But it's called a fight for a reason
and force must be applied.
