Playing Cards

I look in the mirror and I can't stand my reflection
My life needs a change, I'm demanding some action

Have to keep up with life no matter what the pace is
If life were a card game, then I'd be all out of aces

Sometimes I want to give up and just run for the hills
My minds already made up I am done with the pills

It's hard to stay focused when I feel like I'm drifting
One thing that I notice is I need some uplifting

I just want to shine like the tip of a flame
I will draw the line & not sit and complain

A flame will stop burning when it's all out of fuel
It's a shame not learning more
Than the knowledge from school
