Me first

Untangle this mess
I gotta get this off my chest
I can't seem to put this to rest
Because I am so stressed
This stupid job gets my brain all mushed
'Cos every night I try to think for myself
"What am I forgetting? Did I do everything I needed to do, here?
Look inside my heart
I forgot about me. Again and again
Am I taking care of myself properly?
I don't know
I feel like I'm doing everything right
On the outside
But why am I so shaken up
They say "Girl, don't stress, just relax and breathe"
I'm like 'don't tell me how  should and should not feel'
No wonder why I'm racked up
Rage building
Please God, Heavenly Father help me
So that I can always do something for me
Love me first, others can wait
Let them wait
