Just a struggle

If I hold my head up high, then my head won't fall,
It ain't always easy living so low, having to stand so tall.
I know, I found myself looking down more in life than I have up
So many dreams I've sacrificed for money and the price of luck.
Recall my memories like the shadows, lingering in the quite halls
Following the melodies of my pain as I listen to it's faint call.
I've saw....the struggles of life,...love and hate take it's toll
Unfold into a place that for some there heart couldn't hold
Tell me who knows what tomorrow brings the kinda things
That rise to question is this my destiny or just a dream
For what it seems I've been blessed, long enough to be cursed
This struggle is all I've known,...since my mother gave birth
what's worse, is it that we strive to live in a world full of lies
And if we struggle just to live, do we struggle just to die..?
