I keep falling down to my knees,
and I keep getting right back up.
Yet the rejections keep coming.
I try to deal with disappointment.
I try to have faith that I will make it.
Yet I keep falling down and failing.
No matter how hard I work at life,
No matter what I do with my life,
Nothing is changing for the better.
College did not change my life.
Working hard did not change my life.
I still have the same job I had before.
I keep having faith that I will succeed,
I keep applying to jobs and praying to God,
Yet I am still stuck in the same spot.
My life is remaining unchanged.
My life feels hopeless and worthless.
Yet I keep telling myself to keep going.
I will climb out of the hole in the ground.
I will succeed and be something more.
I need to do more than this with my life.

Succeed as Yourself
Fight for the things that you believe in.
Don't let life's hardships beat you down.
You are not a failure until you give up.
Work hard and fight for your dreams.
Good things in life come with a price tag.
Pay the price for all that matters to you.
Some things that are worth the high cost.
Never settle for being average or normal.
Normalcy is overrated and for the sheep.
Be true to and celebrate your unique self.
Strive to be who you want to be always.
Don't listen to the naysayers and criticizers.
You will be unhappy living for someone else.
Not everyone is meant to be the same person.
We are all unique like the snowflakes falling.
Love who you are and be proud of your beliefs.

Taking Action Against Wrongs Committed
Be strong in everything you do,
Conquer all your obstacles.
Be an adult with your actions,
You cannot take them back.
Stand up to all the world's injustices,
Even when no one else will do so.
Your actions travel like a rapid fire,
Catching on a flammable object.
The unspoken need your voice,
To be saved from the evil doers.
Your booming stance is strong,
Stand up to all those wrong things.
If you do stand up and others do so,
There is no telling what we can change.
We all are responsible for ourselves,
Those against injustice must be united.
We can be brave and fight all those wrongs,
We won't do so for a cookie or a gold metal.
Our fight is simply for the love of humanity,
and our fight will never stop and go on forever.
