Never Give Up

Who's to say

"You fucked up."

Who's blame really is it?

The fact I didn't try

Or the fact you never helped

Independence can be hard

When you're only adolescent

But it's not impossible

Just follow Aaliyah's words

And Einstein's

And Fitzgerald's

You're not alone

Just singled out at the moment

They know what it's like

You got their back

They got yours

Time is a factor

That always seems to change

But only in one direction

Which is okay

To stop the madness

Don't wish you could burn your tear sockets just to show you're not weak

Just dust yourself off and try again
