It gets worse

Sometimes life's hard
sometimes it gets worse
Once again defeat becomes
the death of my purpose
I've gotten past worse things in my course
I can't let trauma
change my life for the worse
Feeling sorry for myself does nothing at all
Keep conscious of the fact
that I could let it fall
Gotta keep myself going
can't dwell on the bad
Look at what I've got
instead of what I didn't have
instead of blaming everything else
I can only look to myself
I can't let the shit in life discourage me
I gotta take control
of the things that are hurting me
