I didn't Realize Life Would Be This Hard

My depiction about life and what it really is to me. Inspiring those who feel like life is becoming a drag and just don't how to escape.

I didn’t expect life to be this hard

I wasn’t prepared to rise up

Then fall hard

I wasn’t prepared for the lonely life brings

When your reaching for the stars

Stardom and corporate hiring only brings

No I’m not rich yet

As I sit at home to prepare for the days yet 

To come

Cause you never know when you will be the chosen one

Little do people know

Often times I cry myself to sleep

Wondering how am I going to pay these bills

When will I have won

Ready to give up

Not yet, but this s**t is hard

Yup, I’m done

Like an epiphany, then my dreams flourish in theory

Big, huge, you feel me

I’m thinking well if she can do it

Why can’t I, me, she, her?

So I wake up, try and fail

Try fail, try again and fail again

Until I have risen like, Jesus the son

I won’t stop, I can’t stop it’s death

Until I feel I’ve won

With my mansion of profusion

With my sexy as husband

My damn white picket fence

A beautiful water view, did I forget to mention blue?

Award winning

Winning just a few or a multitude

But this can’t be it

At this point life couldn’t have just begun

We all know by now, men and money does not make me or you

Happy

The simple fact is doing what makes you happy

Makes you happy

So I reevaluated my mindset and dreams

Reflection

Realizing that life isn’t what it seems

It isn’t as hard nor about what you see in the cards

It only gets harder

When you start being who you aren’t and stop being who you really are
