Everything I seem to want I do not get,
The harder I try, the further it gets.
It started with you, a few, and everything new,
I get real close, smell the rose, now it's just No’s.
Should I stop wanting? Should I stop trying?
Some blame the desire, some the fighting.
Look, this is how worse it can get,
Looks like I'm the bad example set,
Compared to present, the bad seems better,
All of a sudden it doesn't pay being the go getter.
Ramblings of the defeated, you may think,
Lost have I ones dear, dear dreams,
Dreams’ wants, wants extremes.
But should I stop wanting, should I stop trying,
That's when I'm done. Done with fighting,
Done with living, done with what I meant…
That ain't happening. I'm out to prove that I'm godsend.
