Life isn’t easy to explain
As I’ve been through pain
I do struggle and thrive
In this fight to survive
Though I breathe and I think
Though I eat and I drink
The pressure pulls me down
And I am nearing to drown
But I have a reason
To live through this season
A reason to hope
That helps me to cope
And while there is light
I continue my fight
After all these trial
One day I’ll prevail
As I look back and see
It was always me
The journey was long
But now I am strong
I stand here at last
It’s all in the past
Now I know, to struggle is a blessing
And life still has it’s meaning
