The way it has to be

by Samantha   Mar 20, 2012


A couple of kids just wanting to escape,
I was always so lost among the pain,
Said if I'd go down it'd only be me,
Now that I look around disappointments all I can see,
Everyone's keeping some kind of secret,
I guess mine would be all of the regret,
Tired of walking a road with so many turns,
But I was once told its the only way we learn,
The only thing Im learning is who I can be,
The worst of the worst or plain poetry,
I'd lie if I said that I didn't lay awake,
So scared of losing but I made these mistakes,
I've never gone too far but no one seems to care,
In your eyes I've done it all and that isn't fair,
Yes I'm screwed up and too stubborn to change,
But you can do so much damage if you never look at me the same,
In two years I don't know where I'll be,
I hate all these fears but I love this city,
There's two of me fighting a war,
One wants free the others not sure,
One thing I know is hitting the bottom never did hurt,
It was looking up and not knowing what I was worth worth,
I'm laying down these guns of mine,
With them in hand it's too hard to climb,
If this is the way it has to be I suppose I'll live,
If this is the way it has to be this world I won't forgive.
