You Can Try...

Let's get something straight...

When you work towards a goal
When you sweat towards a meaning
If you spend nights upon nights sacrificing
Every minute
Directed towards one single wish
If you wake up and live under the hopes of one dream
Allow your happiness to be reserved for a set day
Regard your worries towards not making it true

Not even your own mind
Not even your own mentors
Not even your own family
Not even your own God
Will take that away from you.

Because they dont know your cravings
They dont feel your pain
Because in their world, happiness is a must
It is a necessity
Yet in your world
You fill in that gap with the hopes of
Being where you want to be
Or being who you want to be

And yes
They'll laugh at you
They'll deny you
They'll try and crush you
You and your dream
They'll misunderstand you
They'll force you into giving it up
They'll leave you
They'll forsake you
They'll disable their support

But keep that head high
Keep those eyes clean
Keep that soul light

Because you'll make it anywhere
As long as you let go of your fear
Of the dark...
