Cause & Effect

Why is it so hard to get through the day?

Even worse, to meet obstacles on the way

Is it me or the character I play?

Or is it you and the demands you want me to pay?

I do not always mean what I say

For I too have my bad hair days

When I miss the mark and hit you bad

Please find it in you to avoid being so sad

Have you heard of a cliché?

Well let me say what they say

Keep your friends close and your enemies closer

For then you will appreciate however much I am smaller

 I am only trying to find my way

In this world to pay for my stay

Not to anger anyone or hinder any plans

Just to prove to myself that I belong on the map

I have delayed it enough already

And not any longer-no I cannot be that steady

It is time to get out of my comfort zone

For minutes it will hurt, but for life it will survive

So let me be what I am meant to be

I cannot anymore plea, oh cannot you see?

If you prolong it further, I may then become

The product and result of "unhappy"
