Rain

Let the raindrops kiss your face
In hopes of washing the tears away
The setting sun begins to fade
Another sleepless night awaits
Holding on to dreams so tight
Afraid to lose them to the night
The only comfort in this world
A world that just won't let you be yourself

And they shove you to the ground
You fight but they pull you down
You ask yourself will it all be worth it in the end
Walk with pride even if it's pouring
Though the rain was never reassuring
The sun will light your way in the morning

Another day has come and gone
Another day you don't belong
It's getting harder still to see
Your life is slipping out of reach
So do you stumble and retreat
Endure another swift defeat
Let them tell you who to be
And never get the chance to see yourself

And they push you to the dirt
So hard it barely hurts
You scream at yourself will it all be worth it in the end
Walk with pride even if it's pouring
The rain was never reassuring
But the sun will light your way in the morning

Please
Why can't you let me be
I'm sick of you weighing me down
And telling me that I can't fly
I
I'm doing this for me
So tired of hearing it's not ok
And that I'll never be good enough for you

And you brush the pain away
On your own two feet again
You tell yourself it'll all be worth it, just you wait
Walk with pride even if it's pouring
The rain was never reassuring
But the sun will light your way in the morning
