The Struggle

All my life I busted my ass
What do I have to show for it now you ask
I'm wondering the same thing.

I have no car
No house
Not even a dollar to my name.

How sad is that?
I am struggling everyday
Not sure what I need to do to get by.

Depending on people isn't me
But what choice do I have?
What should I do to got ahead?

I am filling out many applications
And haven't had a single call back
It's frustrating and I just need to catch a break.

I am falling into a deep depression
Deeper than I could have imagined
My thoughts are scaring me more and more each day.

I feel like I have burnt some bridges
Although I am doing all that I can
I just want these days to end
I need to be back on my feet

Sooner or later it has to end
I am strong and will continue to fight
No matter how long it takes
The struggle won't keep me down!
