Inflammation

I am feeling so all alone
Like no one care about me
I have been so strong
Now I am weak
I have fallen by the waist side
Now everybody pointing their fingers at me
Punching and kicking when I'm down
When I was up everybody was by my side
Asking for handouts now that I am down and out
Nobody feeling faith everybody has doubts
Everybody asking is there is any hope for me
Cause I am not feeling like myself
My health is trying to fail me
Attacks against my body
Mentally unstable stuck in a dark place
Living in the dark not finding any light
Everybody looking from the outside in
I am drowning in my own tears
Crying my heart out because I suppose to be way down the road
Now I'm taking steps back because I feel like I lost and straying away
Cause home is not in my heart cause I feel vacant inside
Inflammation everything going up in smoke
Body on fire like a cigarette just being lit like a joint of marijuana
Getting high lifted up into space like a space shuttle
I don't want to come down
Because I am so lifted off of the ground
I have found my way up
